@donsteppa well done if you managed it - 2am is a bit silly for me, I'm old and busted these days
I’m in the same boat and have been relying on replays
don't have to get up for work then ... or watch on company time
Weekends seem to have some full match replays on Sky Sport 2. And once the seven year old spots cricket, the channel cannot change
That's a good problem to have!

Has Kane been out in this IPL yet? I have seen three innings and they are all not outs, has he had more than three innings?
Nice little cameo in the last game 26 no off 10
3 innings for 108 runs off 80 balls. No average yet as he is yet to lose a wicket. He only needs two runs and an out to top the averages table.

I hope he doesn’t over do his amazing form in this meaningless shit. We need him to fire mid year in England.

He has only faced the equivalent of 13 overs. It's not like he is using all his gas.

Good point and if anyone can switch pretty seamlessly between formats it’s him. Better than Taylor who despite his vast experience is still prone to a bit of dumb shit at test level.

Funny ol things going on in Pallekele where Sri Lanka are playing the bangles in tests. Was mildly keen to see what the southland and Hawkes Bay of world cricket could do against each other. Like an elite retard duel that might, in it's own way be entertaining.
Nup. A "Jayasuriya" era pitch and the scores are funny, and hopeless.
Test 1
Bang, 541/7d
SL 648/8
Bang, 100/2Test 2
SL, 271/1
🙂 think it might be a decent batting wicket -

in fairness to SL, they haven't had a draw in a home test in years. So the draw last week was super unusual.
Don't bet against a Bangle collapse in days 4/5, the pitch could fall apart

Monday's IPL match between the Kolkata Knight Riders and Royal Challengers Bangalore in Ahmedabad has been rescheduled. The development comes after Knight Riders' mystery spinner Varun Chakravarthy and seam bowler Sandeep Warrier tested positive for Covid-19. It is believed that Chakravarthy recently left the IPL bio-bubble through the official green channel to carry out a scan on his shoulder and that is where he might have been exposed. Barring Chakravarthy and Warrier, the rest of the the Knight Riders contingent's tests came out clear. -

🙂 think it might be a decent batting wicketSangakkara and Jayawardene retiring at roundabout the same time had a massive impact on their batting, luckily from a NZ point of view I’m sure Rossco will retire quite a few years before KW.
We also have a much better bowling line up than they do.

No surprise:
IPL 2021 has been postponed, following several positive Covid-19 cases across franchises over the past couple of days. The move was confirmed by IPL chairman Brijesh Patel, who said it was for the safety of all stakeholders. In a media statement, the IPL said the decision was "unanimously" taken by the tournament's Governing Council along with the top brass of the BCCI. "The BCCI does not want to compromise on the safety of the players, support staff and the other participants involved in organising the IPL," the statement said. "This decision was taken keeping the safety, health and wellbeing of all the stakeholders in mind. -

Yep, I was hoping they might be able to sneak the rest of the competition in, but postponement started to look inevitable once Covid cases got past the solid forward defense of the team bubbles.
