Big Bash cricket

This is the best 20/20 comp in the world by a long way. Its played over 6 weeks, not drawn out like the over hyped IPL. Cameras on umpires heads, batsman view cameras, brilliant commentary who chat to the batsman and fielders whilst the game is in process, crowd catch prizes . This is the only 20/20 that is worth while watching as when the Aussies do it they do it the best. :cheer:

What a load of rubbish, they make the boundaries shorter cause all bar one aussie can't hit a six on normal grounds, don't get me started on those irritating aussie commentators :sick:
Absolute torture UNBELIEVABLE

you obviously once had an aussie bird who gave you the boot, otherwise you could not dislike them as you do. Don't worry you are not alone as its happened to all of us. :)

I agree CnC. Whilst they annoy me, huge respect for the Aussies and especially how they play, administer and enjoy their cricket. They are the only country that treats all cricket as one i.e. ladies, juniors, outdoor etc get the same treatment under one banner i.e. Cricket Australia.

I agree totally about the IPL too drawn out but its money driven so its not gonna change any time soon
I prefer the test match myself, a true test of a cricketers ability not the skop,skiet and donder of the 20/20

you right Russell as the aussies bring everybody into it to make each individual feel that they are part of the success of their cricket side because without the fan there is no sport.

I too prefer tests but it gets a bit boring when a batsman takes 45 minutes to score 6 runs when your team are close to 400. (Amla 146-152) Just love watching when Johnson/Steyn have the ball in their hands and are fired up. The best test cricket was when Pakistan had Waquar and Akram the WIndies had Welsh and Ambrose SA with Donald and Pollock the Aussies with Lee and Mcgrath. :cheer:
