No Aussie Dominance again; AWOL, it seems , and I will have to sack him . Would anyone like his job? You only have to pick two awards a week.
Finally the great run of SS has come to an end. Special mention this week to Matt79, came close to a number of awards, but was pipped on the post every time; keep up the good work.

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: Slow Love for this click here a hot topic in the last few days, but well written by SL (as per usual)
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. And the Winner is Turbinator for this click here , Original idea, I liked the Lamb if Reid was bowling, brings back memories
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: Scmods for this click here neutral umpires is the rule he wants abolished
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: Dravid , jumps around all over the place, particularly any of the subcontinent threads
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: No award this week, not that much cricket on tbh, although I thought a Pom may have Greigyed over the PMsXI
6. Inzamam Award (Vaguest poster of the week) We are not sure what he is talking about, but we hope he knows. And the Winner is: Jasim click here This from the “Best all-time ‘Actual’ XI”. Subtle but I like it
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: Perm, always seems in contention for an award, good knowledge of the game shown this week
8. The Bradman Award (Overall CW poster of the week) Simply the best no matter what the debate or criteria. And the Winner is: aussie tragic a hard choice with two other posters in contention as well. Well done AT, a great week of quality posts
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: Krishnavamshi24, Not sure if he has actually been to OZ, but knows everything about the people apparently
10. The Mike Hussey award for best newcomer (less then 500 posts), not too many have had a great debut and continued success like “Mr Cricket” And the Winner is: shortpitched713 a very confident poster, not afraid to back his own opinion
The Gatting V Rana award for the best debate of the week, and the winners are: Slow Love & Pasag click here both argued well, before things started to go in circles, but both stopped when this happened.
Please remember, these awards are not officially endorsed by CW management
