So long as you understand that getting 40 in these conditions is like getting a hundred , and that getting 25 might be "performing well".

Yeah, I do. Thanks again!

You've already proved that despite your insider knowledge, your predictions are as fallible and flakey as the rest of us.
It's useful to have any professional insights that you have learned, so I hope you won't take offence if I point out that your slightly smug, patronising posts are beginning to grate.
You're not from Yorkshire, are you?

To be fair, they are no worse than mine.

Or mine, but that's my point

....... It's useful to have any professional insights that you have learned.........

Learned? How do you learn insights?

so I hope you won't take offence if I point out that your slightly smug, patronising posts are beginning to grate.

Why on earth would anyone take offence at being called smug, patronising and grating?

You're not from Yorkshire, are you?

Correct.

Now, could you drag yourself away from commenting on me, and add something of interest about the cricket?

Whoops, it seems you did take offence despite my best endeavours
There was me just trying to help you from alienating your audience.

 

[MikeG]

Well I thank you so much for your efforts on my behalf.

You can take that with the same degree of sincerity as I take your efforts to "help" me.

Could you? Because for someone with an apparent love of cricket and commas, you really haven't contributed much.

 

[MikeG]

Oooooh look, the subject is me again. Not cricket. Have a little look around and see how much I've personalised any of these conversations.

Cheerio folks. Enjoy yourselves.

 

[AndyRM]

Aight, cool.

Have fun with your pal Geoffrey and leave us naive folk to enjoy the cricket chat.

If the game is over today - and many punters have Day 4 tickets...why not get both these teams out tomorrow in their colours and play a "friendly" T20 or even a T15? Just for fun. No pressure.

A not unreasonable suggestion from TMS.

It should be England's game now surely!

107 to win. Normally I'd agree...

 

[AndyRM]

Anderson's best figures too!

 

[Dayvo]

Handy lead of 71 runs. Cue Anderson to clean out the Windies.
