laolover88 Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 Badgers Play cricket. Seen them! Cross me heart and hope to die. They use Owls as umpires, foxgloves as stumps, small rodents as balls, and intricately gnawed oak sticks as bats. Of course they usually play underground Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RolandRat Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 (edited) Some are often "over run" by rats too! Leaving you a decidedly sticky wicket. Edited July 27, 2014 by RolandRat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our Kevin is definitely not a rat. Though I must agree that where it comes to cricket it may well be that some from the rainy dull country that has to have rats on tv are. I will assure you that our Thailand needs Cricket (two knees) team will never ever serve greek badger cheese sandwitches for elevenses. It may be however that some of our local members may apreciated some grilled rat when we play at Ahudhaya. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harrry Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 Harry, Roland's best mate is Kevin The Gerbil Sent from my GT-I9500 using Thaivisa Connect Thailand mobile app Kevin is not a gerbil...I have met him in person and he is definitely a very human person. He is always welcome to come to ChiangRai with or without the Thailand Needs Cricket (two Knees) team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevjohn Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 Maybe the "Thailand Needs Cricket" team should head over to England and give the Aussies some in depth coaching as they need to break a long standing record to win this first test. Read here http://www.abc.net.au/news/2015-07-11/ashes-first-test-day-three-australia-england/6612064?section=sport Could also take the 2 knees cheer squad for some moral support.

kevjohn Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Serious question ... Is there any cricket clubs in thailand ? For a start, have a look here http://www.bangkokcricketleague.com/ and if you are near Chiang Mai, there is this club http://www.lannacricket.org/ If you need anymore information then just Google "cricket clubs in thailand" Hope this answers your question.

harrry Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 as things have been quiet here for a long time how about adopting these rules, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trobriand_cricket Other Trobriand changes to cricket include the following: The visiting team bats first The bat and ball are not regular Teams bowl alternately from each end of the pitch Scoring varies considerably — for example, six runs are scored by a lost ball or by hitting the ball over a tree (compare to the standardboundary rules) The umpire is from the batting side, and when sides change the umpire does as well Rather than with the awarding of trophies, games conclude with a feast put on by the home team.

harrry Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 (edited) I like the one about the feast....by the way did you know the trobian women were all bare breasted when I went there about 40 years ago. Ideal for the cheer squad. They were really nice people too. Not sure now with more contact, Edited April 20, 2016 by harrry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
