the fly slips going to the cricket

That’s right.
The fly slip, yours truly,  will be in attendance for the 2nd ODI set to kick off in about 3 hours.
We have cleverly disguised our selves in a Sri Lankan t-shirt making it next to impossible for you to spot us on the Tele.
However, if you spot a rather handsome chap, discussin the game [...]

The 2 match lean patch

It had to happen.
Splendid’s hit a 2 match lean patch.
The jury is out and Mendis  is no longer a threat.
So says Harbajan and so says a million others who are of the idea that flyslips own Splendid is no good.
Its true that Mendis has picked up only a single wicket in 2 games.
Its also true [...]

Sri Lanka v India, we look back but we don’t really want to

Sri Lanka - gift wrapping the initiative
Raise your hands if you thought there would be a run out in the first over.
Gotcha bitch. What an anti-climax.
After the initial slap in the face Sanath and King Sanga looked good. Thats before Sanaths energizer batteries started to run out.
Sangakkara needs to be hung from his stubble for [...]

Who will be the 503rd ?

We think Yuvraj.
Bowled off a doosra, after completely missing it going for a flamboyant cover drive over the top.
What do you reckon ?

India v Sri Lanka, the MSD factor to the power of two

India are arguably the best team in the world at any shortened form of the game.
The team they have just works for that stuff.
God Sehwag and Goutham City form the most dominating opening pair in world cricket. Plus they are in form. Plus they both like Sri Lanka.
The middle order’s pipped with experience and young [...]

SL routs Pakistan so well that no one even knows about it

Well its been two days since Sri Lanka, humiliated, destroyed, anhilated, smashed, fucked over, rammed one up the rear, to Pakistan.
Couldn’t find anything on it on Well Pitched - our resident Pakistani blog, so I strolled over to Jrods, for surely he wouldn’t miss a chance to the piss out of  a Pakistani demolition. Nothing [...]

Ask Mahela anything, its your turn

It has come to our attention that the fly slip might be in a position to put some questions to Mahela personally.
We dint want to make this all about our selves, we would never do that, so, here is me inviting YOU, to send in a few questions you might want to ask Mahela.
I’ll pick [...]

Fan-actics “X-Mendis”

Ceci, we bow before you.

Sri Lanka plays some cricket

And How.
A day ago people were talking about a white wash for Pakistan.
That was before the real Sri Lanka turned up and played a bit of something we like to call - cricket.
It involved the top order getting off to a hectic start. Osman Samiuddin wants to know who or what Dilshan is, something the [...]

Overrawed on the big day

Yesterday was an important day.
Barak Obama was sworn in.
The Mrs had her B’day.
Pakistan were playing cricket again.
And Mahela scored his 76th run in 11 games.
Pakistan.
Pakistan, Pakistan.
Oh how they whipped us, smashed us and pulled our pants down and played with our balls. Not in a Homo way, but in a dominating ‘Whose the bitch now’ [...]
