I owned a cricket centre in Victoria for a few years

The Pakistanis were great to deal with

The Indians

I’ll leave it there

I think my new favourite thing about the World Cup win is David Warner keeping receipts and giving it to an English guy with 3k followers on Insta

Tonight's BBL game between the Renegades and Scorchers down at Geelong abandoned after 6.5 overs

Pitch deemed unsafe and water got under the covers during yesterday's heavy rain

Sums up Kardinia Park perfectly :rollin

Warner with a not out ton in the first test. Aussies 2/230.

ps. They could've played this at the WACA given how small the crowd is.

Only the Ashes & tests against India should be played at Optus - the rest should be at the WACA.... :shh

Also 7 need to dump Hayden from their commentary team immediately for everyone's sanity....... :banghead
