Lets B Avenue Posted 6 January, 2010 Share Posted 6 January, 2010 using my previous fate-tempting prowess as inspiration, i predict that we'll lose 3 wickets before close today, and lose by over 250 runs tomorrow. wtf??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minty Posted 6 January, 2010 Share Posted 6 January, 2010 Yeah, erm... that was actually my attempt at tempting fate, so that in reality, we would go on to win (well, draw anyway)... Maybe my last 'prediction' was the exception and I *can* actually predict the future...?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now get onto paddy Power and undo the damage you've done. A drawn series would be a good result... hmm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pedg Posted 7 January, 2010 Share Posted 7 January, 2010 Not trying to tempt fate but it would be good if we could draw a match without having to have to last two batsmen in at the end! and 'allegedly' 13 odd overs to go but think its an hour or 15 overs which ever is longest at the end and with two spinners on they could get more.

pedg Posted 7 January, 2010 Share Posted 7 January, 2010 Suffering from cricinfo important event lag stress syndrome. Mainly keeping a eye on the cricinfo page but know that when something like a wicket happens they can take a time to update it so if the cricinfo page not changed for a while have to nip over to the guardian obo to see if anything reported.
