i nearly choked on my ice cream

my lads got the news on and i was just sat here reading and paying no attention but ear wigging if you no what i meen
anyway it came out with imagine a ball coming at you at 50 mph and you cant see it so my ears pricked up
anyway he then said well thats what happens everyweek for yorkshires blind cricket team
sorry but i couldnt help laughing all i can imagine is somthing equivelent to a monty pythons sketch :dunno:

oh and they beat hampshire last wk
i wonder if they caught anyone out

Is that for real, I mean do blind people really play cricket?? Sorry but I'm like you wg I can see the funny side of it, especially when they are trying to score a run, I can imagine someone shouting...........RUN!!!....... forward... left a bit..... right a bit. Oh dear, now I feel wicked.
By the way, just for the record, I cant stand cricket!

neither can i and yes its for real it was on the news tonight and apparantly they use balls with ball bearings in so they can hear them coming ffs

imagine if you miss the catch
sorry im not taking the piss out of the blind but come on its worse than that dancing on wheels ffs

It does sound funny I must admit but I have a blind friend and you would be amazed at what people that can't see can do.

i know sheka but who watches them play fellow blind people
im seriously not taking the mickle
but i can only go on how i would feel and im damn sure if i was blind i wouldnt want to be in a scenario with a bloody ball coming at me at 50 miles an hour :dunno:

blind as a cricket bat
