I decorated it with extra fruit, Woolies are a bit mean with their pavlova fruit. Edited July 8, 2019 by NSWP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NSWP Posted July 10, 2019 #1933 Share Posted July 10, 2019 (edited) When in UK, we stay in the odd Premier Inn, after all there are 1000 of them there. Often you can get them for 29 quid a night. They have pies, mixed grills and all sort of health food at sensible prices. Edited July 10, 2019 by NSWP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bottle of water and a packet of Jatz crackers on the 40 minute flight, Sydney-Moruya, but usually too much turbulence on those little planes to even serve that. Lobster and Dom Perignon @ Star City.

I don't understand these tie breaker super over type scenarios. Surely they should just keep having another super over with different batsmen until you get a result. Either that or you get a pie and a pint each and eat / drink relay style until first team finishes. You have the winner. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had High Tea at Raffles a few years back. They had SAUSAGE ROLLS! I put a few on my plate and added some gravy from a gravy boat that was on the table. Started eating them and it was then I discovered it wasn't gravy but chocolate sauce! Still ate 'em. Yum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

banzaii Posted July 16, 2019 #1948 Share Posted July 16, 2019 Agreed but I think at the end of several weeks and 11 ODIs each some needs to claim World Champions. The bizaare count back was just a non event after a great match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope I think it’s wrong to decide a match or a completion on the basis of one tiny part of the game, how is that fair to the team that did what the sport calls for in the t8me allocated? . And if ODI matches must be decided on anyth8ng maybe who lost the least wickets to get that score, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if ODI matches must be decided on anyth8ng maybe who lost the least wickets to get that score, I don't necessarily think any stand alone cricket matches need a winner, but there is a reason why the final of a competion is called a decider. Other sports like tennis keep going until someone cracks. This is not possible in cricket which is why a super over is a reasonable compromise. However when the super over still can't find a winner, anything other than another tie breaker super over is totally anti-climactic. For what its worth after that rant. I agree wickets lost should be higher weighting than boundaries scored. Edited July 16, 2019 by banzaii Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
