What Shane Really Means is.....
Posted: May 2nd, 2013, 7:12pm MDT by The Nightwatchgirl
Shane Warne, most helpfully, has written an article for The Telegraph detailing how brilliant the Australian selectors have been in their choices for the Ashes 2013. You will notice that in bolded brackets, NWG has added in her own two cents. And these are probably not worth their weight in gold, but still, they might be revealing what's really going on. 'The selectors have copped a lot of criticism in recent times [mainly from Shane, let's be honest] and rightly so because they picked some ordinary teams [you -
And On She Goes
Posted: January 18th, 2013, 6:44pm MST by The Nightwatchgirl
NWG knows she goes on about Australia a lot. She appreciates that sometimes it must get a bit mundane. But being bowled out for 74 just makes NWG happy. She can't help it. And yes, she knows it will one day come and bite her.... [ Click on title to read the original article ] ...

Snakes In A Pool
Posted: January 14th, 2013, 7:20pm MST by The Nightwatchgirl
At least one thing is for certain. The England team are a bunch of wimps. Stuart Meaker was the first to spot the (harmless) sea snake in their (most likely) luxury hotel pool. "Eeek," he screamed (NWG imagines). "There's something wiggly in the pool. Help me." Eoin Morgan declared he's safer in the bath. NWG thinks they all need to be a bit braver. NWG imagines this was the actual size of the offending creature. And you know... [ Click on title to read the original article ] ...

India v England ODI
Posted: January 12th, 2013, 10:30am MST by The Nightwatchgirl
Samit Patel seems to NWG an underrated England player. Always on the fringe. First to be dropped. Angers the naughty Stuart Broad if he dare drop a catch. But yesterday he showed that he should be considered. 44 off 20 in a finish with Kieswetter impressed NWG, not least because she loves a late flourish. England have "rested" Stuart Broad, Graeme Swann and James Anderson because of what awaits this year and it seems, in this instance, that that is just fine by James Tredwell and Jade Dernbach....

All Is Forgiven?
Posted: January 9th, 2013, 10:34pm MST by The Nightwatchgirl
Now, NWG is a truthful person. She doesn't like liars. She doesn't like cheaters. She likes to know where she stands. She likes to think that people want to be truthful. That they want to be good. That they mean what they say. And then KP came along. Now NWG likes to think that people want to change for the better, but she can't quite believe in KP. England have handed him a (nother) central contract now that he remembers how to score runs and... [ Click on title to read the original article ] ...

Shane Warne and the Exclamation Mark
Posted: January 7th, 2013, 8:05pm MST by The Nightwatchgirl
Now you are all aware that NWG is not one to judge. She doesn't sit on some cushioned pedestal and look down on others. She certainly has no opinion on Shane Warne's little outburst on the field against Marlon Samuels last night (Shane - remember it's only a game, and the Big Bash at that - does it really matter that much? Oh wait, that's an opinion. Turns out NWG can't keep quiet). But what NWG really can't handle is annoying punctuation. Can anyone explain these exclamation...

The Last Week of My Cricketing Life by Michael Hussey
Posted: January 6th, 2013, 6:12pm MST by The Nightwatchgirl
Monday - Six days to go. Tuesday - Five days to go. Wednesday - Four days to go. Thursday - Three days to go. Friday - Two days to go. Saturday - Tomorrow. Sunday - Finally. It's a burden being called Mr Cricket. I'd much rather be known as the more successful Hussey brother. Or the guy that can bat. But they're not as catchy. I feel a bit bad leaving Australia with someone like Philip Hughes, who for all his batting skill, holds as much charisma as... [ Click on title to read the original article ] ...

Readers,
Posted: January 3rd, 2013, 10:32am MST by The Nightwatchgirl
Readers, NWG has been keeping something from you. In 2011 she had an adventure in Sri Lanka. She saw turtles, ate lots of curry, but most excitingly she had a tour of the cricket ground in Galle. And not just any tour. The tour. NWG was very lucky as the hotel manager knew the security guard at the ground and so offered NWG and her boyfriend (yes readers, it's happened. Someone in the world likes her, it's a surprise to us all) an all-access tour.... [ Click on title to read the original article ] ...

2012 has been a (quiet) blast
Posted: December 30th, 2012, 7:51pm MST by The Nightwatchgirl
Goodness. It's been a while. So much has changed. And 2012 is almost over. But NWG is back. And this time she means it. In order to celebrate her return she's decided on the following: 1. Stop the annoying spammers from posting on her site. 2. Celebrate Alastair Cook more. NWG likes him a lot. This picture was probably just after he realised KP was back in the team. 3. Mourn the ending of Andrew Strauss' captaincy. He really... [ Click on title to read the original article ] ...
