England’s cricketers might not have had much luck on the field, but there’s always plenty to do between games and at the end of the day. Tweetsport take a look at what those Cricketing Twits do to kill time?
1. Go green – Cricketers give golf a go. More later…
Ian Botham @BeefyBotham Squirrel meets the squirrel..!!! (above)
David ‘Bumble’ Lloyd @BumbleCricket Golf today . Place your bets . Vaughan/Bumble v Beefy/Ed . H/caps 9 for MV, DL,IB . Ed. Off 1 .Ed MD at Montgomerie Course
Michael Vaughan @VaughanCricket I wonder if my partner @bumblecricket has risen yet!!!! A couple of Boroccas and he should be fine.. He also likes a sherry on the 1st!!!
2. Invite your mates round – GMac gives cricket a go. I’d watch the Irish boys if I were you #ontherise
Graeme McDowell @Graeme_McDowell Just had an hour at my first cricket test match. England v Pakistan. Beautiful day in Abu Dhabi. Not much action though
3. Move like Jagger – No pictorial evidence. Thankfully.
David ‘Bumble’ Lloyd @BumbleCricket
Another fun packed night in Nelsons Disco dancers to the fore. Must confess I tapped a toe to Maroon 5
Nearly did a spot of disco dancing tonight …but songs are very long which leaves a pensioner out of breath #wenttobedinstead
4. Keep in touch with back home – Don’t worry Monty, text speak passed us by too.
Monty Panesar @Montyp713 My mother texted me: “What does IDK, LY & TTYL mean?” I answered: “I dont know, love u, talk to u later” Mother: “OK, I’ll ask your sister”
5. Live your James Bond fantasies – Might be slightly more Miami Vice with those shorts?
David ‘Bumble’ Lloyd @BumbleCricket Captain at the helm Hope he gets his bearings right today
6. Take it to another level – Is the sky really the limit?
Ian Botham @BeefyBotham Up at the top of there is a great lounge & restaurant called Atmosphere..!! On the 122nd floor…Awesome !
7. Get your groove on – Ok, who had him down as a boy band fan?!!
James Anderson @JimmyAnderson9 It’s always lively sitting next to @finnysteve on the bus…
Graeme Swann @Swannyg66 he’s naked from the waist down
Steven Finn @finnysteve @JimmyAnderson9 listening to one direction and the wanted is better than listening to what you have to say.
8. Be an International Sportsman Part 1 – And see the world. Or not.
Jonathan Agnew @Aggerscricket Also blizzard conditions in Dubai today. But sand, not snow
Kevin Pietersen @kevinpp24 Horrendous sandstorm.. Dubai skyline non existent!!
9. Be an International Sportsman Part 2 – And visit exotic tropical locations? Nope, wrong again.
Francois Du Plessis @faf1307 Not much cricket gonna happen here…
10. Try the Links effect – Maybe they should have asked GMac for some pointers?
Michael Vaughan @VaughanCricket Not a great start for my partner….
David ‘Bumble’ Lloyd @BumbleCricket @WestwoodLee partner let me down yesterday …and he wouldn’t let me drive the cart
Lee Westwood @WestwoodLee @BumbleCricket don’t you have to retake your test when you reach a certain age bumble ?
You can follow all the cricketing action (and not just the down time) in real-time on Tweetsport. You might just be surprised what you find…
