Baby's got the bends
Lighthouse Family, Radiohead, Counting Crows – it’s like being back at school, here at the LC de Villiers Oval, where Namibia are taking on (or trying to) UAE. Radiohead is a particular favourite of the DJ-cum-PA, Anton, who is providing occasional witty (and, indeed, occasionally witty) updates from the other matches taking place, interspersed with some of the 90s classics. “Oman, the great entertainers,” he croons, “were going along nicely. But wickets are falling faster than the rand.” As third man let through a four in front of his coach, Colin Wells, Radiohead’s The Bends roared out from the speakers to entertain the three fans and two journalists. “My baby's got the bends, oh no//We don't have any real friends, no, no, no.” Wells, who is desperate to improve UAE’s fielding, shook his head and walked on in disgust.
