Best of The Best

1. Shahid Afridi Award for (Best post of the week) Like an innings by the great man, it does not have to be very long, to be great viewing. And the Winner is: adharcric for this click here Why read Cricinfo for your cricket India info. I learned more from this post, good stuff.

2. Shane Warne Award for (Best thread of the week) Like his bowling it must be interesting but just like his private life it can also be controversial. Nominated by Pasag. And the Winner is: Matt79 for this click here The debate went off track, but that is the way most of the best discussions happen

3. The Skull Award (Funniest poster for the week) Just like the king of the one liner Kerry O’Keefe, can also be serious. And the Winner is: Pedro Delgado, for this click here :laugh: I had to read it a few times, but hey I still got it

4. The Sobers Award (Most varied poster of the week) The true all-rounder of CW you must be able to contribute to a number of threads. And the Winner is: marc71178, has an opinion on just about everything, if only they were a little longer. :laugh: (did not help to pick the awards this week)

5. Tony Greig Award (Worst prediction of the week) Will he ever live down that ‘We will make them grovel’ prediction re- the West Indies? And the Winner is: JBH001 this week click here Maybe England will still win, and this will not be worthy of the Greig?

6. Inzamam Award (Vaguest poster of the week) We are not sure what he his talking about, but we hope he knows. And the Winner is: BLC2007 click here Welcome, watch out CH



7. The Sir Geoffrey Award (Most knowledgeable poster of the week) We were going to call this the Richie Benaud award, but after speaking to Boycs, he assured us he new twice as much as Richie. And the Winner is: Matt79, started some great threads and backed it up with some knowledgeable arguments





8. The Bradman Award (Overall CW poster of the week) Simply the best no matter what the debate or criteria. And the Winner is: Again no winner this week, am I marking too hard? :unsure:


Agarkar/Mohammed award for ('At least their trying' award)
just like the players this award is named after, they may not be quite good enough for any other award, but at least we remember them. And the Winner is: JustTool, a little hard on the Indian cricket team, but I like the passion.

10. The Patrick Eagar award for great photography, because we have named this
award after the greatest cricket action photographer, it will only be awarded when someone reaches a high standard of snaps. And the Winner is: Langeveldt, click here We are waiting for some comp.

Please remember, these awards are not officially endorsed by CW management :)

Re: The Bradman award. No your not making it too hard. Its the bloody Bradman!!! Theres a certain level needed, and even if it takes weeks without being awarded, it should be kept to a high level.

If anything it'd discourage half of us from posting such tripe....... Sorry, off in a fantasy world there.

If I can be bothered and post some cricket photos I have on my crappy camera then I could challange Lange.

Maybe not.

Personally, I wouldn't rate that post on Indian seamers as one of my better posts. It's also from March. Don't mind the award though. :)

But don't sell yourself short, you had a lot of very tough competition to beat for the Afridi this week:)

Thanks for my second Skull of the year :) just like silentstriker I had a rotten childhood and won **** all, so I am very proud today.

I have a few photos from Trent Bridge on Saturday I'll post up at some stage, nowhere near Langers' standard as I'm not as talented (no zoom either).

Good job all winners.

I agree, given its name, the Bradman should be a toughie to win.

Great Job all, Congratulations to the winners. And I second Jason's comments on PD who also happens to have a great avtar. :)

Congratulations to all winners - I had a good chuckle last night upon my return from my jolly holidays in Paddyland.

However.... a word of warning.

Last Saturday, I actually kissed the Blarney Stone, so waxing lyrical will most definitely be on the agenda during the forthcoming weeks.

The missus did likewise, but that was unnecessary as she already works wonders with her tongue.
