England got real use of the substitue change by sending off Jones and bringing Solanki in considering the situation. Pieterson paired with [...]
Too much Cricket?
Few complaints lately. Most of them say that I have too much about Cricket on my blog and more about the England team. Being a Sri Lankan, people ask me why I write about the English Cricket Team.

Punishment for the little Programmer
I wish I knew programming when I was schooling..
Fun with a Linux Server
I have been having some fun lately with a remote Linux server. I was assigned a task to upgrade from MySQL 3.23 to MySQL 4.1 and after a tough battle, the mission was accomplished. The reason for the upgrade was mainly because MySQL 4.1 offers sub-query support. There are quite a few other advantages [...]
New Regulations & a win for England
New one-day regulations were trialled today for the first time in the Natwest Challenge match between England and Australia. Substitues will be able to do more than just fielding and certain fielding restrictions have been changed.

Lot to learn
Just got couple of emails from the students who attended my workshop on Internet and Email last month. The students who attend to the workshop are new to computers and rarely have accessed a website. I feel glad when I receive emails from them as I know that they are getting used to the Internet [...]

But Collingwood and Geraint Jones [...]
