I have never seen a cricket ball swing like it did that day, its like the ball had a remote control attached to it. ;) You know what the POMS are like (body line) rings a bell. :)
 
I think i saw a story on the tele. that the groundsman were using heat lamps placed overhead that had been seized from a marijuana growing gang to dry the pitch area. Make the ball move around a bit wouldn't it.
Jaros :p

Until you checked the rugby scores, then the tears started. 8.(

True that RF...was not the AB's of old on the paddock..your guy's only had to turn up that night!

Eden Park may be a different proposition tho....

I've suffered from my colleagues and rightly so after that performance

Bob Massie - 16/127 on debut at Lords during the 1972 Ashes

Was a tad too young to see Massie in the flesh but from what I was told he was about the best , Terry Alderman was the best I have seen as an exponent of swinging the ball both ways. The tripe we served up makes you wonder if we bothered to do any training with the Duke ball at all , as much as I love to watch one day and 20/20 it seems to have killed the art of a good leave.

Cheers
