glad you found my post amusing. Now if you'll excuse me for a few hours, I am back out in the middle trying to bat against some geriatric with big ears and grey hair - keeps asking in a dodgy accent if I know his mate Goughy.
Bit of a novel experience this - we seem to have a first innings lead for a change and I am not sure how we should approach the second innings. best make sure I get some orders from the captain at lunch time.
Told Hoggy not to bowl them out too quick this morning as my neck was a bit sore from the carcrash still - typical of him to ignore me and get their last man out early doors so he can put his own feet up for the rest of the day and watch the tennis.
Rudy also tried to counter his first innings big score by getting out to the second ball of the innings - mumbled something about having to sort out his average again so that he might get put back in the middle order.
So when I got out to the middle I said to one of their players 'I felt stiff', and Trescothick rolled about like a childish schoolboy. One of their fast bowlers nearly throttled me - oh christ it looks like he is warming up to have a bowl at me now and he's about 6ft 7.
