#ChampionsTrophy #Cricket fucking brilliant from Afghanistan England appalling game management the one-day side has a long way to go to get back to challenging enough with the golf now

Ibrahim Zadran you’ve got to love it I just love #Cricket the sport comes before any allegiances for me. I will watch any game any time Pakistan surfaces I like roads that’s why you need reverse swing older ball #ChampionsTrophy

Talking about suspect actions when it comes to spin bowling, Australia have always been very hot on it. I always found it strange because when Shane Warne used to bowl his flipper he definitely exceeded the degrees allowed admittedly he bolted less and in the backend of his career #Cricket

#ChampionsTrophy #Cricket I feel really strongly about this and have done for ages. 50 over cricket they need to go back to using one ball using two one from each end was supposed to help the bowlers not the batters but it’s the opposite and reverse swing is now extinct hard as a hit an older ball!!

and I will post every day about Elise Perry she is my absolute hero and since she came onto the scene the best all rounder so great so great so great i’m not one for goat chat but she’s got everything. #BestCricketer.

#WPL #Cricket Sophie Ecclestone is fucking brilliant she’s the person you want bowling the super over there’s not a better spinner in the world right now in 20 over cricket and yes, I’m including men’s and women’s A Rashid and Rashid Khan and I will die on that hill!!!! also Sarah Taylor best keeper

#ICCChampionsTrophy such a shame that the game couldn’t take place in Pakistan not a surprise that Kohli got a century against Pakistan. And that’s probably eliminated Pakistan already they didn’t even get to play all their matches at home in their own tournament. #Cricket.

I know adverts during football matches are terrible. And the betting ones are just vile, but the calling one is confusing because their fans sitting around the TV watching the game, but if you look at the TV, it’s clearly video game simulation on the screen. Why bother? Just say drink Carling.

that was really hard to watch. #Brentford #LeicesterCity Leicester went defensively awful it doesn’t matter who the manager is and what they do on the training ground that defence is just irretrievable I feel for the Leicester supporters and players. It’s not their fault they’re ill equipped

does it get any better than Elise Perry playing brilliantly for Bengaluru/Bangalore but Mumbai coming out on top the perfect result for me #WPL #Cricket by the way I don’t use the silly names for the franchises because they’re vile worldwide maybe with the exception of Welsh Fire possibly?

Richard Fairbrass of right side Fred is a anti-VAX anti-environmental activist and a big supporter of Vladimir Putin and Russia. I guess the clue is in the name all along he’s too racist for his shirt so racist it hurts.

Who doesn’t love Kagiso Rabada I refuse to believe there is anyone out there That doesn’t #ChampionsTrophy

#ChampionsTrophy that’s the best kind of run out you get to throw the ball directly towards the batter with justification even if you nearly take their head off great Fielding by Rashid bloody brilliant I hope the beat South Africa just because the losing run needs to continue. It’s cricketing law.😂

this might be a British centric thing. The latest Amazon commercial the teenager is trying to skate on the beach and gets frustrated, so his mother buys him a boogie board.I would be more concerned that he’s trying to skateboard on a fucking beach. She’s raising a moron.

It’s an incredibly sad day for British film Amazon taking over control of bond from Barbara Broccoli. The British film industry is being eroded by the back door. The last Bastian has gone. It feels. #BritishFilm Jeff Bezos can also fuck off.

I really want the semi-final and final of the champions trophy to be in Pakistan sorry India big fan some of your blood runs through my veins but I am angry at your government and cricket board that you feel you can overrule anyone and there won’t be consequences because of revenue not cool #Cricket

well, that was a bit of thrashing #WPL #RCB over the #DelhiCapitals very predictable because the dew factor was a problem from ball one for the side bowling second great batting but arguably a predictable outcome and India do make the surfaces as flat as a pancake roads for the #IPL & #WPL

#WPL #Cricket Smriti Mandhana has to be one of the best left-handers I’ve ever seen past or present men or women so elegant so effortless I’ve always preferred lefties when it comes to batting being left-handed myself might have something to do with it. Kumar Sangakkara. Is a perfect illustration.

when the men’s #IPL I wish they would do away with the impact sub. It is fucking absurd makes the role of the all rounder obsolete. We might as well just play one ball per endings why not the Super Ball why bother? #Cricket #IndianCricket #T20

#WPL when the dew is on the outfield the side bowling second is basically fucked in India. It’s a it is a major disadvantage the chasing side I reckon Wins 90% of the time once the ball gets wet it’s like bowling with a bar of soap. Another thing the sponsorships attaching them to shots & moments🤮😡🙄

I know she dropped one in the last game, despite that she is one of the best catches in the game. #WPL not only is she one of the best cricketers of all time in her younger days she also represented Australia at international level in football/soccer love her so much platonically of course.

they can stick their so-called participation charities up their arse. The best way to get adults and more importantly, children is to make it easy to view. Their money grabbing arseholes and they know it they don’t care if the game dies a death in this country. #FuckTheECB.

The England and Wales cricket board the #ECB I complete arseholes they’ve spent so much money over the years making sure big cricket events are behind a paywall viewing figures aren’t what they were and I got into cricket in the boring summers. It was always on free to air 1/2

I am so frustrated with dictation software it doesn’t matter what it is Apple dragon I’ve tried them all over the years and they make so many mistakes they don’t even scan (grammatical mistakes) I have to use dictation #Disclaimer

Diego Jota definitely dived there. This is not a popular opinion, but I love #VAR #Football

Donald Trump can sign as many executive orders as he likes they’re not worth the paper it is written on. He is a complete twat! #GulfOfMexico

I will posit that #basketball #NBA is incomprehensible. It’s too perfunctory constant scoring makes it less significant yes it’s athletic but how can it be entertaining? Anyone who is a fan of it I reckon is lying I’m not sure to what end yet, but I will get to the bottom of this #AmericanConspiracy

I spent the first half of my life studying music sound recording. My knowledge and taste is pretty extensive and I finally feel I can say this.I think #FooFighters are just terrible. Also sidebar Dave Grohl sings with gum in his mouth not in my studio he wouldn’t. Singing is being nice talk shouting

it’s #WPL season don’t mind if I do Elise Perry is the best one of my heroes but I’m not supporting RCB has to be the MI because of heritage and the fact that they’re now involved with Surrey technically speaking I must stress the franchise system sucks give me #Rajitrophy over #IPL #cricket

Chelsea making Trevorh go back to them promising this time will be different and it isn’t. It’s a toxic relationship. He was mending at Palace and now he is back to be under appreciated and scapegoated.

The England #cricket team are not fucking professional golfers that’s the drawback having BM as coach I agree with KP for the first time in my life they should be forced to have net sessions playing spin over and over again golf is shite anyway

I’m wondering, idly how much Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson are getting for the series of adverts the advertising AI big surprise it’s the new buzzword in technology used to be algorithm as a tech geek it amuses me

@mrcolinmurray.bsky.social Blood on the Tracks?

I’ve never sent a GIF and I never will. I just don’t get the point of them much like Instagram.

Ravindra Jadeja he’s fucking fantastic if I could play cricket I would want to emulate him and I will die on that hill come at me I will fight you!!! One of the best cricketers of all time #IndianCricket #BestSpinningAllRounder

@quinreystudios.com I find mindfulness doesn’t work for me or am I just doing it wrong or coming at it from the wrong approach? Maybe I have an impatience and a prejudice against hippie dippy things I’ve had a psychiatrist said that people watching creates a very similar outcome to meditation

I’m a BBC guy. I love the corporation. Yes, the news isn’t the best because they have to try and balance everything tying themselves up in knots, but you can’t argue with the TV radio/podcast output iPlayer and BBC Sounds are just great

I want to get back to growing With Jack after a year of distraction by running lots of mini experiments and being more intentional with measuring results. This was January's mini experiment: iamashley.co.uk/januarys-min...

Does anyone actually watch bargain Hunt or is it just like background music? I’m aware by posting this that implies that I’m watching bargain Hunt I won’t have that slander. With my production hat on, I imagine it’s very cheap television to make.

@mrcolinmurray.bsky.social hi Colin did wondery UK branch go under? The whole everything to play for stream is not available for back episodes. Can I suggest you try and resurrect #BloodontheTracks one the best podcasts in my opinion, I know Covid was a big factor. Maybe you can tempt BBC again

List videos on YouTube watch Mojo being in the worst culprit. Behave like let’s be less judgemental and kinder to each other now let’s be judgemental about these people in a list form. Undermines the fact that we should give each other a break and show kindness, empathy and understanding and inform

I’m aware most of my posts are mostly sports related. I should clarify. I’m happy to talk about anything media and the arts for example, and any old rubbish
