Life is grand

20/20 cricket commentary is as condensed and speeded up as the game itself. It is hilarious for it:

Flintoff is dropped at cover again, this time by Dabengwa, and then it looks like he’s been bowled - but the ball rebounds off Ziggy’s knee and rebounds on to the stumps. Flintoff then hoists Chibhabha over long-on and is well caught… by a spectator in the crowd as it goes for six. Then he really is bowled for 13 off the last ball of the over.

UPDATE: Oh, it gets better:

Brent gets the last over, but it’s a bad day at The Office as Schofield slashes one to third man where the Zimbabwe fielder only succeeds in pushing the ball over the boundary for four, while his trousers simultaneously fall down. But Broad is then despatched by the third umpire as he’s run out at the non-striker’s end. He looks about as pleased to be given out as his dad used to - but he has to go, and we get Jimmy Anderson coming to the crease with two balls of the innings left.
