- @james277 Got a Monty quote for you today. in reply to james277 #
- @legsidefilth Re Trott: Agreed. It's getting old. As if we haven't been through all this with KP too. in reply to legsidefilth #
- @james277 Strongly recommend Goodwood Fes of Sd/Revival. Both fantastic. Will send you some BoP links about them. BGP=v quiet atm. in reply to james277 #
- @james277 Sorry for split personality. We've got our sunhat rather than our racing helmet on due to the imminent SA match. #
- We are almost reassured when Strauss loses a toss… #
- @james277 Really hope he can get back in England team soon. in reply to james277 #
- SA settling in nicely, but Eng bowling not proving too expensive yet. #
- SA 30-0 after 5 overs #
- @AlisonMitchell They are scoring a fair bit slower than The Nurdler was expecting… in reply to AlisonMitchell #
- SA 60-0 after 10 overs #
- @unslugged No, we recognise a cricket fan when we meet one
in reply to unslugged # - Went off for a meeting, came back and found the score at 127-1 after 27 overs. And Luke Wright has bowled Smith! #
- Clearly SA heard what we said about scoring a bit slowly at the very beginning and acted accordingly… #
- Talk on TMS (between Fletcher and de Kock) of a 300 total #
- @JuliaBall The perfect Christmas presents? ;- )) in reply to JuliaBall #
- @JuliaBall An excellent idea in reply to JuliaBall #
- @AlisonMitchell You're our Quote of the Day today with that post: http://www.thenurdler.com/20091127-quote-of-the-day-27112009 #
- @JuliaBall "We want to know why a brewer would produce a beer almost as strong as whisky." Er… because he can? in reply to JuliaBall #
- @JuliaBall They are pricing it so far out of the binge drinking market. in reply to JuliaBall #
- @RobinBrown78 A favourite, from a paper that The Nurdler's batting partnership once plied their trade for: "Pigs perish in barn inferno" #
- SA 195-1 in 31st over with de Villiers on 49 #cricket #
- WICKET Amla has gone – and he has walked rather than waiting for the umpire's finger to go up. Well played that man! Total of 86 #
- SA now 201-2 in the 32nd over. JP Duiminy is next up. #
- WICKET JP Duiminy out for 6, c. Morgan b. Bresnan SA 217-3 in the 36th over. Next up is The Other Petersen. #
- Argh, thought Bresnan was bowling that over. May have done Wright an injustice. #
- Yup, Duminy b. Wright not Bresnan. Apologies. #
- SA on 222 – but probably not a significant number for them. #
- There clearly are numbers they should avoid, though – wickets have fallen on 107, 201 and 217. #
- Ouch! Colly misses stumps and fails to get a run-out. #
- Eh up, de Villiers has just gone! #
- De Villiers c Trott, b Wright SA 312-4 with four overs to go. De Villiers' total was 121 @Red_Jedi #
- @Red_Jedi How are you doing? SA won toss, elected to bat and have built a massively solid total. #
- @unslugged He was approaching an excellent Test score, never mind an ODI in reply to unslugged #
- @Red_Jedi All well at Nurdler Towers. How was the mountain? How is Mumbai? in reply to Red_Jedi #
- And Strauss and Luke Wright open the batting – and manage to stay in for the first over. #
- WICKET – L Wright goes – Eng now 41-1. C. McLaren, b. Parnell, Wright was on 24, Trott coming up next (Apols for repetition) #
- Eng half-century is up in 7th over #
- RT @ECB_cricket England ahead of South Africa at the same stage #
- WICKET Strauss is walking. Caught behind off Boucher by Morkel. Eng 58-2. #
- Should never have retweeted that @ECB_cricket observation… KP is on his way out and is being booed theatrically. #
- @BoyInTheWell We did it too
in reply to BoyInTheWell # - Sir G: "He's playing for England now, for crying out loud, gerrover it." #
- WICKET – Trott is gone. Eng 58-3 with a superb slip catch from Smith. Bye bye game. #
- TMS: Are we the only ones loving the idea of Sir G with no clothes and covered in shaving foam, walking into a hotel reception? #
- Eng 81-3 over 15 overs #
- @paulholmes82 @JuliaBall Could not have happened to a nicer bloke! in reply to paulholmes82 #
- Eng 100 is up in the 18th over – but scoring rate needs to be better. #
- Match at that excruciating point where all is not lost but the batsmen have a mountain to climb to pull victory off. @james277 #
- Aggers says D/L par score for this point is 177. Actual score is 138-3 after 24 overs, which gives a good idea of the position. #cricket #
- WICKET KP has gone. Eng 142-4. #
- Pietersen clean bowled by Duminy. on 45. Now Morgan joins Collingwood, who is on 32. This is the mid-point of the game. #
- WICKET Morgan out for a duck. #
- Hmmm. Colly's had to rely on his abdominal protection – but his wicket stands. #
- TMS mired in a terrible debate about doosra legality and how rules are enforced. Sir G adamant Murali and Harbhajan get special treatment. #
- England batting powerplay. Score is 195-5 after 35 overs and new ball. #
- At the wicket are Collingwood and Prior. #
- And Colly hits a six, bless him. Eng 200 and 50 partnership are up. #
- @BoyInTheWell Had to think hard to work out you didn't mean a certain prominent Australian cricketer in reply to BoyInTheWell #
- WICKET – Prior's on his way back inside. Eng 214-6 and Bresnan takes to the field. In 37th over. #
- @BoyInTheWell It would be unkind to remark they'd have to find a less than statuesque dance partner. He's apparently taller than he looks… in reply to BoyInTheWell #
- Aaah, Colly is out. A great effort from him. Eng now 223-7 and pretty much done. #
- Monty will not be saving this one #
