AFG 201/7 in their second innings, IRE batting second.... but I get what you're saying, "we" do have a knack of losing from winning positions in the shorter formats.

Darts (UK Open) starts on 8 boards/screens before noon, gonna be a fucking hectic day, lucky I have the cucumber sngwiges ready to go.

... 13/3 - Tector was robbed, the ball never touched his bat... the "ultra-edge" spike was about a yard before the ball passed the bat.

Just the odd token... It's a very racist inbred sport in Ireland at national level. Most players are bred specifically to play for Ireland, generally from West Brit/Ulster Unionist stock. TBH, I'd say every north county club has at least one man who'd wipe the floor with most of our "internationals"... just they don't have the birth right!
