A couple of hours ago some clod called 'Gilly's Danda' ignorantly triped
out, "The last post that I can find about Cricket opinion on this group was >made on 24 February 2022 - fittingly, about the New South Wales / South >Australia / Victoria (Warne's beloved state) conspiracy to deprive
Queensland of its due."
Arrrrgggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
For the last time, The Conspiracy Club was *never* about promoting Qld, it >was about the NSV (Now just NSW) running and ruining *Australian* cricket. >Yes, Qld would have benefited from having all the faceless NSW power
brokers executed for treason, but so would all the other States.
Pity about the demise of rsc, I would have enjoyed taking on the NSW
deniers and their pitiful efforts to argue against the charge that it was a >NSW coup which brazenly dispatched Langer.

Not in Brisbane anymore.
You're clearly not watching enough European club championship cricket.

You need to come to the UK; women's cricket is getting more coverage on the BBC website than the men's game.

WI probably has something to do with the amount of coverage on the
website. (And they may well have the radio rights to the Women's World
Cup, though I haven't checked.)

So sad to see the demise of rec.sport.cricket! I came on this morning
to celebrate a historical moment--Angelo Mathews duck in the
SL-Bangladesh Test--and find that the greatest forum for discussing
World cricket is sabotaged and basically gone.
But I will nevertheless reply to this post where I still find the
immortal alvey and John Hall!
After his wonderful 1st innings score of 199, Mathews' 2nd innings duck >gives him three in 171 innings. And that returns the record for lowest >percentage of ducks (in 50 or more innings) to the late, great and much >beloved Clyde Walcott, with one duck in 74 innings.
I've been waiting for this day for several years, ever since Mathews (a >wonderful batsman whom I hugely respect!) last surpassed Sir Clyde. May
both of their records live forever!

Steve the BajanHi Steve. It's good to hear from you after all this time.
There may not be much life here, but there's still plenty on uk.sport.cricket ()even if a large proportion is posts by Robert
Henderson and rebuttals thereof).
Angelo Mathews seems to go on forever.

Hi I'm a curious 18 year old and I've just found out about Usenet newsgroups. Surprised to see that people still post here.

It's for the same reason as people still speak languages peculiar to
some tiny region: they've done it all their lives and they don't know
not to.
