I can't contain my excitement

I can't contain my excitement

It's a lovely day here in London; the weather has been great this last week to be fair, and because of that we have been able to train, play and enjoy our time leading up to the ICC World Twenty20.

Tough day with few rewards

Tough day with few rewards

Well, it wasn't quite a scythe that we took to the Indian batsmen, more a small, not so sharp, butter knife; but we hung tough and were rewarded with two wickets just after lunch and then a couple late in the day.

Not the day I was hoping for

Not the day I was hoping for

I sat down to write this a little earlier but wasn't really in a good mood and what I was typing was a little bit angry, I was having a bit of a moan about a few things, not related to today's play either

Oh yeah that's right, 50 wickets

If yesterday was a near perfect day, then add that to today and together they combine to make the makings of a very special match

The dumbest thing I've ever done on a cricket field

The dumbest thing I've ever done on a cricket field

Sixty one for six before lunch and I’m sitting in the changing room contemplating putting my pads on; that’s not how I envisaged this morning going.
