please guys and gals - spread the word , 150 continuous cricket is awesome , heck i would flag after 24 hours , let alone 6 1/2 DAYS!

its my little brother who`s running it - and currently , they have matthew hoggard (ex england) umpiring for them! they are also hoping for sir geoff boycott on saturday as well!

utter madness, wish I was involved

Good luck to them. I'm a little concerned about the idea of trying to sleep whilst your team are batting - I reckon after a couple of days the innings could get very short! Needs a squad rotation system...

spoke to chris earlier - they `banked` the dinner breaks for the last few days , and under the rules they had 6 hours `off` and sleep for everyone

congratulations to chris hughes and his team - you are now the world record holders for the longest continuous cricket match - broken at 105 hours , and now time for tea - then time to SMASH it and reach to 150 hours!
