There’s much excitement here ahead of the MTN8 semi-finals this weekend And when we get excited, we tend to put together BET Boosts!

Lots of chat about ‘The Match’ going on here and someone brought up a story we missed from last week. Tiger Woods’ caddie, Joe LaCava, tried to pay a heckler to leave the course during the Northern Trust Open.

You arrive at office and find the lads huddled around a screen watching a video. You peek over someone’s shoulder, but this is not what you’re expecting to see!

I’ve gone down the rabbit hole of Indian Cricket YouTube channels, and discovered this seemingly legit advert by Lionel Messi playing cricket. Decent batting technique, but all his deliveries are no balls, especially the last one. pic.twitter.com/qw7PGxiyqN — Ben (@BenJoyceFoot) August 22, 2018
