Ahh kkk makes sense

Stoked for Khawaja to get a ton. I felt he got squeezed out of the test side because of "personal conflicts" with some players.

So he's matched Warner for runs and run rate this innings and still going. Go son!

Bowlers from both teams have been dreadful,not building any pressure at all

I inspired the bowlers

New yorkers are gonna get a glimpse of cricket in their city on the weekend the allstars sachin tendulkar and warney will be leading the teams to play, the yanks should get into this sport because they love statistics, technicalities so many technicalities its unbelieveable, there are also field positions for determination of the defensive team, to bowl and catch, batting techniques against a slow, fast, spin, medium, yorker, lbw ball and the infamous chappel bowl.
Batting order of players, their strengths and weaknesses, the 12th man. Sledging and of course the ground, grass, wicket, pitch hard, soft, bouncy and the new ball.

I reckon they are gonna luv it, because theres the test (unlimited overs, play more than two days) the one dayers (50overs per team, finish by nightfall) the new 20/20 (20overs bash the s**t out of it, a fast game) there are tonnes of statistics in the game much more complicated than baseball. They will  love it. Oh and the rare sight of a streaker.

Oh fas its the first match, kiwis will take the second...
