Hi there, I'm Bob! My team and I would like to welcome you to bobscricket.com. As with the extended network of Bob's Sports' sites, Bob's Cricket was started because of a genuine passion for playing and watching sports, not to mention placing a few successful bets on them along the way. Our sites are created to provide you with all the information you need to stay up-to-date in your favourite sport; whether that's latest news, events schedules, game rules, player info or tips and advice on your own game ' we've got it covered right here.
Cricket news
To make sure you don't miss a thing, Bob's Cricket writers will bring you the latest cricket results, live cricket scores and match statistics as well as breaking international and UK news. We can give you tips on team and individual player form along with the best odds to be found should you wish to place an online bet to make your next match even more exciting. Cricket is a great sport for some in-play betting and a wager can't half make a flat game more interesting.
Player Profiles
We'll also give you run downs of top players, promising newcomers and keep track of those reportedly out to pasture i.e. We're interested in Flintoff's post-Test cricket career as we think there's a fair bit of life left in the old dog yet! His last Ashes was punctuated with some truly awesome moments ' running out Ricky Ponting with an arrow-like throw was legendry - but in the main, talk was of his injuries and waning fitness. His knee surgery following The Ashes will see him on crutches for six to eight weeks but selectors are keen to get him busy again in the Natwest Series. Rate him or berate him, we're looking forward to seeing some more inspirational Freddie play ' he's a character that the public can get behind and, let's face it, he's fun to watch on and off the pitch. But it's not just about Flintoff ' there're a host of players we've got our eyes on for you so watch this space for more player news and reviews.
