The IOB is leaving test cricket

Bow your heads people, we may never see a test cricketeting blogger of his ilk again.

Fly your flags at half mast today.

The highlights in his hair will never flow into the wind of test cricket again.

Well played IOB.

  1. At least the beard will go…!!

    Hope the blog continues, even if it will be Middlesex slanted!

    The beard rocks. Don’t be hating on the beard.

    I’ll seriously miss him a lot. As Sarah said let’s hope he doesn’t retire from the blogging world.

    Now i can’t critique IOB anymore. :(

  5. Generally speaking, NO NO NO to beards!

    What’s wrong with beards? Don’t be hating.

  7. I don’t hate them & I’m not saying EVERY beard, just most of them! Beards tend to make men look older, especially as they often have grey patches (or even random, inexplicable ginger* bits) and they are, ahem, very often uncomfortably itchy during romantic moments… Plus I had my heart broken badly by an ex boyfriend with a beard. Not that I’m bitter!!

    * Just to confirm, I have nothing against ginger haired people!

    Isn’t Afridi blogging yet?

    LOL. Afridi is a simple, simple cricketer, and he doesn’t strike me as having a strong introspective streak. Blogs are probably superfluous to his kind.

    I read it as international cricket somewhere.. after the 3rd test at Napier.

  12. Goro says:

    Haha, Sarah, I completely understand. Yet I feel that I should somehow give praise unto the beard as an act of nonconformism in these debauched times of blond streaks, carefully clipped facial hair, moisturizer.and retina-obliterating smiles full of identical perfectly-aligned teeth.

    And I feel the same way about short, snippy redheads. Not that I’m bitter or anything.

  13. Well I am short but neither snippy nor a redhead! Phew!

    It’s better going out with a bang than ending up like Stuart Clark… I wish him all the best. Hope he still keeps blogging.

    You’ve got to love the nebulous nature of NZ Cricket contracts.
