I was half listening and he outright called either Cutting or Khawaja a one dimensional cricketer and he also pretty much said that Cutting was a bit of a dummy Ponting is actually becoming a good commentator now that he isn't insanely nervous but he speaks his mind extremely bluntly.

Chris Rogers on being cut by the Thunder: "I got cut by the Thunder. If you get cut by the Thunder, you're probably struggling," Waking up late for the bullshit, telling it like it is, I like Chris Rogers despite him being an Aussie. In other news, why does BBL insist on having some ponce on a trampoline in every game, and some random home viewer stuffing themselves with KFC?

From what I've gathered, if the z-list celebrity catches a six then the home viewer will win a million dollars.

I love that Lehmann answered that he sees Phil Hughes as a top 3 player and then Ponting chimed in to remind him that Hughes batted at number 6 in The Ashes, he's even willing to put people he's friends with in awkward positions.

Well the Thunder got Chris Gayle for their first season and of course he went away so I guess the Thunder's role is surfacing grade cricketers or something.

You mean surfacing poo poo grade cricketers and using them to cover Mike Hussey in their shitness.

Earlier on I watched some of this BBL you all go on about, and as god as my witness I saw Luke Wright twatting it about all over the place and getting much praise for it. And suddenly I realised why so many of our trash move to Australia.

There's probably some weird third party sponsorship loophole because I can't see how they could have that team for $1,000,000.

I think the highest paid player last year was Chris Gayle (about $250,000) while the lowest possible payment was $20,000. Quite amusingly, the Bangladesh Premier League has a $2million salary cap per team.

Has anyone been watching the womens ashes stream on the CA website? I think these might be the shortest boundaries I've ever seen in womens cricket, it's ridiculous. link for anyone interested - http://www.cricket.com.au/news-list/2014/1/9/watch-the-womens-ashes-live-website

Brett Lee gave a send off to some fat bloke from Perth that's played 8 games but then didn't give one to Mitchell Marsh when he got him out in the same over. He's such a piece of poo poo. e: australia's secret has been revealed quote:Before the first, third and fifth day of a Test match, someone is chosen to tell the "joke of the day" during warm-ups.

Steve Smith just got out short of getting the sixers home but he seems to be very good in situations when his team is sucking.

The BBL has been pretty exciting. Almost every game has been down to the wire. Ten have really lucked out to have the BBL be this good during an Ashes year.

Its so funny if he honestly stood there and just swung through the ball he would have hit it for six.

Smith goes from player who was going to win the game to player who completely threw it away. Mark Waugh is sitting up in the commentary box secretly thinking "thank gently caress I now no longer have the biggest dumbest brain-fade of all time in front of the stumps".
