There Is Cricket Tomorrow, Cricket, Actual International Cricket Which Will Be Totally Excellent, And Exciting And Brilliant
The World Twenty20 starts tomorrow. NWG is excited. She's been missing cricket. And even better it's in the West Indies where it's all warm and lovely.
How will England do? Who will fail? Who will do well? Will Pakistan win again? Could England win?
Eventagentur - NWG thanks you for your comment and for calling her dude. She finds this term has become more rare over time and she's grateful to you for trying to bring it back.
GCW - yes, this is true, or she could look it up elsewhere.
Nightwatchgirl's Pick of the Cricket News this week
Farewell Ricky Ponting and Michael Hussey. NWG always enjoys it when useful Australian batsmen retire, even if one of them is moody and small.
Stuart Broad is on NWG's naughty list. If she ever meets him she would like to educate him in how to be a polite human being instead of being mean to Sir Ian Botham. It's not on Stuart. And that's probably why your heel hurts. Just saying.
Of all the things to invent in the world of cricket, did we really need wickets that light up when they get hit? NWG is doubtful. The Big Bash therefore falls short in terms of innovation. She would have preferred one fielder to have springs in their shoes so they could jump really high or something equally as funny/ridiculous/dangerous.
NWG would like to advertise herself. For once. She advises you all to listen to this podcast and note all the kind things they say about NWG...
NWG would like to thank Patrick Kidd at The Times for putting NWG in the top 50 cricket blogs in the world. She is overwhelmed.
Andrew Symonds makes bold statement: "I'm in a position of responsibility and I can't live irresponsibly. I've realised that." Groundbreaking. (NWG can't bear to take this down)
Ashes Forum
Come and check out the new Ashes Forum on Silly Point with Nightwatchgirl. Don't be shy...
It is my mission to make cricket understandable to all. So along with cricket news, there will also be explanations of particular rules and any other weird business that happens on or off a cricket field.
If you have any questions please email me: nightwatchgirl@gmail.com

NWG, I was anticipating your questions, and I have pre-emptively answered most of them here.
Hope this helps.
ahh GCW - what would NWG do without you?
Presumably you'd find out the answers in the fullness of time?
I completely agree with you was just sick of bloody DLF Maximum for its maximum insanity.
Dude, this was something very informative I come across recently http://www.h42.info don’t miss to have a look.

...or just ask me, init?
NWG can always rely on you, Stani
