balls profiles: Michael Yardy

In the years to come he will be known as, ” you know, that guy”.  But right now is known as the star of left arm slow non spin.  Has reinvented himself from a struggling batsman to a comically unfunny bowling option.  Yardy is a more than handy number 7 batsman,which is why it was funny he was made to bat behind Luke Wright.  Clearly England wanted Yardy to know his place. He is a such a miserly bowler that I am surprised people have not called him a jew, or a scot, or  dutch, or (insert whatever other nationality or ethnic group that is supposedly tight with money). I’d prefer to just think of his bowling as cricket’s version of my Uncle. Who my Nan once described as, “so tight he clenched his ass together when he walked so he wouldn’t drop a penny”.
