Sri Lanka and Pakistan play a test in the shade of the ashes

I would love to talk all about the Pakistan Sri Lanka series, but I didn’t see any of the first day, and who the fuck is Tharanga Paranavitana?

He top scored on the first day, and before today even his Mum would say, “sorry, who are you again?”

Former teenager Mohammad Aamer took 3 for on a day when everyone seemed to take wickets.

But I can’t go past Tharanga Paranavitana, if you know anything about him (especially something interesting) I would like to know all about him.

This would be a great series to watch, so if anyone knows an illegal link to watch it on put it in the comments.

They choked again

Cricket’s version of David Carradine has done it again, the saffas have choked.

Cough, cough, choke.

Afridi put the noose on, then he tightened it.

Umar Gul squeezed then to within an inch of death.

Jacques Kallis sat in the corner watching the whole thing.

And Mohammad Aamer locked the wardrobe door.

Why does a South African choke feel like your team has just won?

5 wins on the trot.

The Evil Robotic white ball players looked indestructible, but none of us really believed it, did we?

Why?

Because they choke.

They always choke.

Every world cup/thingy they choke.

And what better a man than Shahid Afridi to do the choking.

Can’t you just see him clad in leather from head to toe, whipping a ball gagged South African in a gimp mask that he’s already strung up before him.

What am I saying, if you saw the match that is exactly what you saw.

Because South Africa choked again.
