Bashers. It's Shanghainese for Cricket

Stanley Cup

Detroit Red Wings v Pittsburgh Penguins

Something was made in this weeks Broadcast of embracing new sports and opportunities abound tomorrow.

As if the Sheraton Showdown boxing wasn’t enough! Starting a 8am at the Big Bamboo in Nanyang Road (actually it’s in Detroit but you know what i mean) is the final game of the 7 game Stanley Cup Finals. That’s Ice Hockey my friend. This would be an excellent opportunity to support our Bashers secretary Andy “Tank” Scott who has endured many a state of origin or rugby test match with us. Also a fine chance to charge up on testosterone for the evening.

What did Freddie Flintoff say to Brett Lee?

Find out what Freddie really said to Brett Lee when he consoled him at the end of the 2nd test in the 2005 Ashes series:

Australia sent spinning as tour takes turn for worse

Reminds me of 2005.
Bring on the Ashes.

So Ireland made it through to the Super Eights stage of the World Twenty20 and Australia did not. They may have been a shade unfortunate to have been drawn in the strongest group in the first stage, but after their drubbing by West Indies on Saturday, Australia were deservedly beaten again last night, with an over to spare, by a Sri Lanka side showing greater invention and composure.

While the rest of the world’s leading teams take aim for the final at Lord’s on June 21, Australia will retire to their new base in Leicester, licking their wounds and kicking their heels. They do not have another game scheduled until they travel to Hove to play Sussex on June 24.

Training On Thursday

Gents,

Big weekend of cricket ahead of us.
Bashers double header – with Pleasure looking to kick-start their season, and Business looking to regain their rightful position at the top of the table.

Training will take place from 6-8pm this Thursday, 11th June, at the normal venue.
Would be great to get as many of you there as possible.

As always – drinks at the Big Bamboo for those that can make it.

See you there.
