Monday night, everyone is home monday night, and it works. Cricket is played over huge timezones, there is no monday night in a global cricket tournament.

Andrew, cricinfo is for fags – its run by brits. Jrod, please dont be lured away by their lucre. If i could find another commentay site, I would never even go there, except maybe for Andy.

Doesn’t Monday Night Football (the American version) rank as one of the most succesful sporting events of all time? But what would a bunch of seppos know about selling sport?

Andrew, It is a shame, if you could do it I would like to steal Shahid Afridi’s secrets. Cheers, but I think one a week of CWB is enough for cricinfo.

I can confirm that, although I do have a lot of time on my hands, I have not yet mastered the sneaky art of psychic burglary. I wish I had such an ability, because Jrod’s version was much snappier than mine. It isn’t that I’m paid by the word, it’s just that I don’t know when to shut up.

Great blog, by the way – Cricinfo needs more CWB

Seems like lots of things happened while I was engrossed in quarter end related work.

I see… so what exactly was the purpose of this totally unrelated off-topic, misinformed and poorly researched comment of yours? I’m not sure what “wounds” you’re talking about, if its this constant antagonism that you seem to enjoy, that has gotten you into heated exchanges in the past with almost everyone from Amy, Jrod, Homer and Nesta (who eventually banned you from commenting on his site which is quite something when you consider he is one of the nicest and most tolerant cricket bloggers around) from my quick 5 second recollection, then you needn’t worry, nobody’s been injured and to be quite honest nobody’s too bothered once the next post goes up.

Shame they couldn’t have played a day match at least, I’d have stayed up for that.. as it is the toss is at 11pm (midnight in New Zealand).

Raj, the time stamp on that post is before mine went up, so unless he came into my head and stole it, a possibility, i’d say he should be the aggrieved one. I just broke a story that every other newspaper in the UK went with, and got no credit, if the odd blogger steals my ideas, good luck to them.
