Sammy is a legend

Sammy cracks me up. I aint seen a funnier cricketer since Courtney Walsh the batsman.

In yesterday's game, if Sammy promoted himself ahead of Russell, we woulda won. He's good at smashing senseless sixes.

Incidentally, Simmons has some beautiful cut and and square cut shots, but seems unable to play in the V, unless he is lofting or hooking.

Dernbach to Sammy,that would have been a wide, too! Even wider outside off than the last delivery !

But Sammy gets bat on it!  ::LOL::.....and England have won

Dernbach to Sammy, 1 wide, it's a wide! Would you believe it. Outside off, Sammy flash. Buttler clap

Dernbach to Sammy, no run, oh, what a time to send down a slower ball. It's full outside off, Sammy is early and can't reach it 

was Sammy trying to protect Simmons when he ran him out?

Dernbach to Sammy, 1 run, , chaos! It was a superb bounce, first up, from Dernbach which hits Sammy in the chest.

He sets off for a run, Dernbach chases from cover then throws at the non-striker's stumps with no one there.

They try to steal an overthrow, but the return comes in and Morgan is at the stumps this time.

Simmons run out 69

thats what happens when you selfish!! 

now if it was Shiv, you woulda never stop hearing cuss!!

No.

Sammy did the right thing to run out Simmons. Simmons strike rate was too slow for a T20 game, and he wasn't clearing the boundry as effortless as Sammy.

The problem was, Sammy didn't come in early enough, and the two other big hitters (Russell, Bravo) failed.

Ramdin surprises me. He's now a good Test, ODI and T20 player.

Legend fih truth !!!! ......  :: ::dead::
