Super Series looks to be a cracker!

comment on the article

I dunno about anyone else but the twenty20 stanford super series looks like it is gonna be an absolute corker. It will be a good chance for the regular big hitters to prove themselves, especially Swann. Can't wait till it begins. IPL eat your heart out.

I don't know why they would do that - seems like overkill to me....
erm
This was my reply:

So, he goes around shaking hands with everyone, like any politician would....

Big deal!

Interestingly, a lot of Antiguan citizens gave him warm hugs in return! So, maybe he's not so unlikeable....

Actually, I was replying to C-hucker's post, which has gone awol again....
erm
he was talking about Stanford himself. It does make my post look silly!
doh
I do find Mike's interviews very annoying, that's true. The PR approach is a bit too blatant at times....

I'm not bothered by the effects the lights are having on the fielding. It just makes it more interesting!

It's a pity the pitch is so slow. But all teams have to play on the same pitch, so they just have to make do....

The cricket was bad. Cook was only on the field as a replacement I believe. Otherwise the team looked OK on paper.

Let's hope the series will help boost cricket in the West Indies as they have provided so much talent historically.

Looks like it's going to be a bit of a joke to be honest.

$20 Million chucked at the players, and they haven't even got proper lights at the venue. doh

Trinidad only put down one catch in the Middlesex innings, so the lights didn't bother them much tonight....

How will they bat at their turn? This board closes shortly, so follow my profile to a place where we can follow this.

The sooner this farce is over, and England get back to the real cricket in hand and the tour to India, the better
