Not only have Kiki & Sassy now got "commenters" to LOL and explain the jokes - Hats on to whichever CricOz PR flack came up with that cunning plan - they also have better security than Sydney airport:
Editor's Note
Whilst we welcome diverse comment and robust discussion, CA will not be allowing negative comments to appear on these pages if they don't have a valid point to make.
This blog was intended to appeal to a different part of the cricket audience, not necessarily the hard core fan. We will continue to add a diverse range of blogs and articles to the website over the coming months.
Please note that comments that are derogatory, defamatory, or discriminatory will not be published. The decision to publish is solely at the discretion of CA.
Not that I'm some sexist porker ranting that teh laydeez - jolie laidies, to coin a waggish bon mot - shouldn't write about cricket. I happen to agree with Richard Hinds:
IT HAD been anticipated that the coverage of a major cricket series would highlight, in graphic close-up, the contributions that some very fit women make to the game.
Is Richard Hinds serious...or who exactly is he trying to impress? Wymins cricket?! Really?! If he is serious then it isn't a matter of LOL but G.A.G.F!

G.A.G.F - my thoughts exactly.
My missus wasn't averse to some of the coverage of the male spectators that the cameras lingered on either. But that wouldn't fit with Dick's story, so it was conveniently ignored.

This...

That dude has a serious case of having no dick. The chicks in the crowd in SA were the best part of the coverage.

Were you watching when Paul Harris tried to claim the half volley catch? He saw the replay and then said "These are always very difficult for the umpire", intimating that Harris was in the best position to judge it. Then after they watched the replay again showing the ball bouncing up into Harry's hands, he backpedals like mad.
My description does not do it justice, you had to be watching.
