MooNoi Posted July 31, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2009 Little Pig - can you please translate? Um... Well... Er... Onions is the surname of one of the England bowlers. A "hat=trick" is when a bowler takes 3 wickets in 3 balls... quite unusual and rarely happens. A rare feat in any form of cricket. He got 2 wickets in 2 balls.. which means "he's on a hat-trick." But he didn't get the third wicket. (Thank goodness!!) Does this help??? Hey - I thought you were English POM Michael!! You should know this stuff!

"Quite unusual and rarely happens". Are you saying that it doesn't happen very often? ....But he didn't get the third wicket. (Thank goodness!!)

MooNoi Posted July 31, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2009 "Quite unusual and rarely happens". Are you saying that it doesn't happen very often? Yes... fair point Munchie!!

The_Munchmaster Posted July 31, 2009 Report Share Posted July 31, 2009 Tautology I believe (actually never heard of it so looked it up). Onions didn't manage any more but Anderson chipped in with 4 leaving the Aussies 203 for 8 at lunch. Ouch! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
