Pothunter 13 Aug 10:51am, 13 Aug 2024 9,307 posts	0 Pothunter SA drew with the Windies a couple of days ago in the first test draw since July last year. 28 matches without a draw! This match lost 145 overs to rain and would surely have had a result if not for the rain.

I think I'm glad his wife came out with her comments yesterday, and hope it might resonate somewhere, be it improvement in services, reducing stigma, getting someone to reach out who might not have otherwise and receive some help. Otherwise, I think I'd be glad to not hear much more now and remember Graham Thorpe for the hero I remember.

NDWDave 15 Aug 9:03pm, 15 Aug 2024 19,897 posts	0 NDWDave I was trying to think if I had seen Graham Thorpe play and then remembered my first game of cricket I was featured a 23 year old Graham Thorpe. A pretty good line up as it turns out. I had to double check the strike rate as it seems ridiculously low now

Pothunter 15 Aug 9:50pm, 15 Aug 2024 9,317 posts	0 Pothunter The early 90s were not known for their dynamic scoring rates. 200 was a good score for an ODI.
