Re: Cricket

News reports just have said that McGraths wife has got a reoccurance of cancer - shattering news. Jayne is wanting Glen to play on Sunday but it is a devastating blow. All the best in your struggle with this disease young brave lady.

That's awful news for the McGraths, hope they get over this latest hurdle. I admire Jane McGrath and Glen for the strength thay have shown previously in dealing with this, and for helping out others with breast cancer.

Re: Cricket

McGrath out of side today due to personal reasons.I'm hoping it has nothing to do with his wife's health.

Terrible news & I thought it would have to be serious for McGrath to pull out.Hope everything works out well for her battle against cancer.

Watching, or trying to watch, this Aus v S Africa game tonight just proves how reading a book is way more exciting.

Re: Cricket

Too many prelim games. Plain silly.

IF anyone wants to make a little money on the cricket keep backing Gilchrist to outscore Katich. Only has to last 5 overs and it is all over.

Re: Cricket

Can someone explain to me please why the Allan Border Medal is on tonight and not after the one dayers are finished? It seems stupid that someone can poll votes in the preliminary games this season, but if they poll in the finals, it's not counted until next year. So you can poll in the same years competition over 2 years. ???

I think it is for the Calendar year only and doesn't include any games from 2006

Sounds right but still think the timing of the awards night is strange.

Re: Cricket

To win the VB series, a team has to play a minimum of 10 games - 11 with a 3rd final.
To win the World Cup a team must play only 6 games.

ACB, Channel 9 need to have a long hard look at the boring, long, repitious cr*p they are serving up at the moment.
