This week we look at the low strike-rates, the oldest current cricketer, the low totals, and the most successful captains in a variety of ways. Plus another World Cup XI.

I am eventually back playing cricket again after three months on the sidelines with a bad hamstring and calf injury. With no 2nd XI cricket or practice I was selected for the Yorkshire Twenty/20 side to play against Leicestershire at Grace Road.

In recent times, there has been much talk of how to make Test cricket more “interesting”. Some worthy ideas have been mooted; some have talked of trying to produce more results. Yet some of the most exciting finishes to Test matches ended in draws.

This week we look at the most successful coin-tossers, continue the World Cup dream XI search, and look at 300+ scores in ODIs. And the debut centurions who never played again

What steps should the ECB take to make their EPL a success? And can it win out over the IPL?

This week we start on a quest to find the World Cup dream-teams, and also look at the most double-centuries in a Test series, the high no-result percentages, and more.

As West Indies head into the third Test match against Australia, they do so with aspirations of leveling the series at 1-1. The Frank Worrell Trophy is now out of their hands, but there is still the pride of a drawn series up for grabs. And whatever hope the home team bears depends largely on the potency of the front line bowling attack, particularly Fidel Edwards. A cursory look at the series statistics locates Edwards second only to Brett Lee in wickets. His 11 wickets are already a series high, though he has only once played more than 3 Tests in a series. Now it remains to be seen how far he can extend his personal record in Bridgetown.

A look at what made the cheap plonk team of the IPL into champagne winners.
