Sir Ian Botham has revealed he is undergoing preventative treatment for impotence and urged other men not to suffer in silence. The cricket legend said he had received shockwave therapy on his genitals as a measure to ensure he did not suffer erectile dysfunction in the future.

Sir Ian, 60, said the medical condition, which is thought to affect half of all men between the ages of 40-70, had become such a taboo subject it was risking people's health and relationships.

"Men don't want to confront this head-on but they must. I haven't got a problem but I don't want a problem," he told the Sun on Sunday."It's prevention rather than cure. I didn't need the treatment but I didn't want to be worrying about it in 10 years' time."

He added: "There's nothing to be embarrassed about. What's more embarrassing? This or going to a chemist and popping some pills and saying to your partner, 'I'll be with you in 20 minutes, I'm just waiting for this to work?'

"People are starting to man up. I want to give a gentle jolt in the right direction."

>>77024858
natural variation is a commentary on the fact that bowling actions are not infallable, and that unintentional changes and differences can have huge effects on what the ball does. lots of seam bowlers (broad being a great example) sometimes roll their wrists across the ball while bowling, entirely unintentionally, and it creates variation from what they where expecting the ball to do. these slight changes also can deceive the batsman, depending on how subtle the change was. it is also prevalent in spin bowlers, for example the root wicket that appeared to be a normal off spinner but ended up not turning and bowling him

For shame. And anyway, I don't see how this test proves that. Both teams batted in similar conditions, it's not like England got baking sunshine while South Africa batted under overcast skies.

Yes. Remember England got absolutely fucked on the first morning but then Saffers let it slip with no-balls and rubbish fielding. You could easily say South Africa should have won this match.

it's lower down on the scale, but Sri Lanka's government is muscling its way in too right now. I know Nepal has problems with the government too. You'd be looking at losing a lot of cricket sides if you started taking issue with it now.

tell me about the corridor of uncertainty

getting some natural variation in my bowel movements lads

Do SA have to replace Rabada with Phehlukwayo to make the 2 black player total? If they drop Duminy are there any more non-whites they can replace him with?

>>77054512
In the sport of cricket, the corridor of uncertainty is an area where a cricket ball can pitch during a delivery: a narrow line on and just outside a batsman's off stump. The name is derived from the opinion that this is the area in which a batsman struggles most to determine whether to play forward or back, or to leave the delivery. If a batsman leaves the ball, there's a chance the ball will turn inward and either bowl him or hit him with an increased chance of leg before wicket. If a batsman plays the ball, there's a chance the ball will go to the outside instead, leading to an outside edge that can be easily caught.

>>77054538
interesting, cheers

>>77054537
>Do SA have to replace Rabada with Phehlukwayo to make the 2 black player total?
The racial quota is an average over the year, it looks like they've been partially ignoring it for this series and will fill the side with shitty blacks against a weaker side
>If they drop Duminy are there any more non-whites they can replace him with?
Not that I know of. Bavuma is unironically the greatest ever black batsman

>>77054545
>average over the year
It's like a minor admission that the idea was hamfisted and impossible to implement a lot of the time.

>Next series is home to Bangladesh
There will be no white players on either team lel

yeah hopefully theyll just play loads of games against each other but im doubtful

reckon it meshes quite well with his personality myself
it really was just a matter of time before he made himself out to be a superior being

uhm, duh?

>>77054719
>>77054722
VERY bold claim given the state of the liberal party right now
>>77054725
Economically liberal

>>77054725
The 'Liberal Party' was hijacked by reactionaries for the past couple of decades and has served as the Conservative Party, as illogical as that is

Turnbull is the first progressive 'little l' PM since the 70's

going to be become a vegan catholic

Menzies:
>rapidly increased immigration
>introduced the welfare state
>pivoted Australia's main alliance away from the UK and toward the US

Tbh as a staunch liberal voter I honestly don't give a fuck about these policy memes. I just like their economic side

>>77054773
>I just like their economic side
How is it different from Labor? They spend 5% less on expanding the welfare state?

Got the South Africa prediction wrong, but it's like I say, when you're right 81.8% of the time, you're going to be wrong 18.2% of the time.


I have no choice but to suggest that England will sweep the series, they certainly defied by expectations on the first match at Lords.

>>77054828
>I have no choice but to suggest that England will sweep the series,
i called that 6 months ago

>>77054838
But you were not to know that South Africa would be missing players for the test, therefore you were "literally" guessing.

Real Tip God out.

>>77054961
thanks

I'm genuinely worried about how interested I am in Daniel's family history

>>77055001
The history of the Hays is the history of New Zealand, you're just a patriot.

>>77055005
It seems their influence is pretty much limited to Christchurch though. I asked my dad about the Hay's store and he said there were a ton of them in the 70's, most of the locations are now Farmers stores. Literally had never heard of it tbqh

Oh lads just found the best gem of them all

https://teara.govt.nz/en/biographies/5h11/hay-james-lawrence
>In 1948 Hay initiated an annual Christmas parade with floats depicting familiar nursery rhymes

>Daniel's great grandfather invented the Santa Parade

fucking wew

>>77055045
I never went to the santa parade as a kid, do they do it though what's left of the CBD?

>>77055054
I'm not from Crushedchurch but I'm fairly certain Auckland's one was ripped off from another city, thought it was Wellington though.

Never mind it seems he just founded Christchurch's one, there were some in Wellington pre-war

Imagine Sir Hamish Grenfell Hay looking down from heaven and seeing that his beloved grandson had become an objectivist and an autist

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Bowling_(cricket)
Shall be spending my evening deepening my understanding of test cricket lads.

>>77055297
It's honestly hilarious
One of Christchurch's most prominent families produced a prog rock autist who made himself a meme on 4chans cricket general. What a time to be alive.

>>77055354
>One of
They Hays LITERALLY are Christchurch

The city wouldn't exist in its current state were it not for the proud Hay family legacy, a legacy that has come crashing down all because of Daniel

>>77055373
>It's current state
Probably not the best choice of words

Maybe his handsome and based older brother Oliver could return and restore the Hay family's and Christchurch's prestige?

>>77055269
apparently our consciousness can transcend space-time by harmonic oscillations brought about through guided meditation

Please keep Daniel on a leash so he doesn't come and spout his rubbish in /rug/

>>77055373
God was mad at Daniel for his edgy atheism phase and caused the earthquake.

le crab man is batting lads

truthbomb: taller fast bowlers have no inherent advantage over shorter ones, fast bowling is not at all manlet unfriendly

>>77056173
morne morkel is the obvious rebuttal

getting some natural variation in my sleep patterns lads

>>77056191
how is that a rebuttal

>>77056286
ask yourself what makes Morkel such a good bowler
ask yourself what physical feature creates that advantage
the results may surprise you!

>>77056173
Do you have any clue how levers work? And how length multiplies the speed?

>>77056349
fuck off daniel

>>77056173
This is complete bullshit. I'm going to assume you're 5'8.

>>77056318
his height helps his style of bowling yeah, he'd be shit if he was short

but shorter bowlers naturally are able to force batsmen to play at more balls on a good length, taller batsman have to pitch it up that little more and it makes them floaty

*taller bowlers

>>77056387
but someone like bavuma is completely unable to get wickets because the ball only gets 5 cm off the ground no matter where he pitches it

the optimal bowling height is between 5'11" and 6'3". that isn't manlet territory

>>77056173
bullshit
the shortest GOAT tier fast bowler was malcolm marshall and he had long arms for his height

>>77056425
I reckon you can get away with being a little shrter than that but yeah otherwise agree, by manlet I meant under 6ft anyway

5' 8'' is my cut-off, a 5' 8'' bowler could theoretically be GOAT

>>77056512
headcanon

not sure about the lower limit for spinners, quite fucking short

>>77056425
McGrath is 6'5" and Starc is 6'6"

>>77056617
yes there are exceptions

>>77056617

oh then you might have a point

mark wood is literally a 5' 11'' morne morkel. saD!

and starc is a lanky swing bowler which is just wrong too

just need to swap heights and they'll both be elite

>>77056913
umm no

starc isn't an anderson 130 kph trundler

can't even swing it anymore

get a load of this poomunity
