Darren Stevens just turned 45 and proved how much experience can count in the game of cricket.
Stevens did what few bowlers in international cricket have managed – dismissing Australia’s Marnus Labuschagne cheaply. It happened on the opening day of England’s County Cricket season with Labuschagne’s Glamorgan taking on Kent.
Kent was dismissed for just 138.
With Glamorgan pushing for a first innings lead, Stevens found a way through the Aussie’s defence.
Labuschagne was out for 11 and sent social media wild with some jokingly asking for Stevens to be included in England’s Ashes team.
Stevens has had a stellar first-class career with 554 wickets and more than 15,000 runs scored in 311 matches.

People who know cricket have said that every time. But the selectors thought they knew better and brought Johnson, Starc and Lee over the years. How’d that work out?

Dear oh dear, the miserable old pedant who cries about the word batter being used to describe the man or woman taking strike doesn’t have respect for me, truly devastated Bernie :laughing: :laughing:

Of all the people on the roar I have disagreed with about anything, you are the only one who I can find no saving grace to at least have a basic level of respect for. You’re one of the most repulsive ignoramuses I have ever encountered anywhere, online or off-line.

Can’t get enough of how sooky a middle aged man is getting over this. Absolutely hilarious. Same can be said for some others that comment on The Roar regularly. Precious man babies galore haha

I hadn't actually replied to you the last two times. I'd made an observation about the batter article David wrote, and I commented on someone's remark I am going to start talking to you now though, it's far too much fun to see you crying online everytime someone says batter.

Not bad actresses. Carla's born same year as Applegate. But Olga Kurylenko, Rachel McAdams, Sophie Marceau, Thandie Newton, Troian Bellisario, Shailene Woodley. All Scorpios, my fave.

Don't dis Diaz. She was born same year as me. I coulda gone to school with her. Christina Applegate would have been in my sister's class, Jennifer Anniston in my other sister's class and Nicole Kidman a year behind my eldest sister. Drew Barrymore and Kate Winslet would have been in my brother's class.
