Best of The Best

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: Matt79 for this click here some great posts this week, and a real struggle to fine a clear winner. In the end the ‘Giants shoulder’ quote got this one over the line

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 PhoenixFire for this click here , it died a shocking death, but was quite well debated for most of its life

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: haroon510 click here we at CW awards like to laugh with our posters not at them; yeah right!

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: Jono , has one this award more then anyone else, but has been awhile since his last Sobers

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: –Ed- click here Well if the Poms get up today, this will not seem so Greigy

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: aussie for this click here das man tis un cool

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: Jono , Two awards this week and well deserved, always writes quality posts

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 great poster, starts a lot of interesting threads, that mostly involve a lot of work. Well deserved winner of the Bradman

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: JF. trying hard, and has been recognised by the judges this week with two awards, well done

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:
JF. Maybe a girl? But we won’t hold that against JF. A good start to CW, just has to remember not to get too personal

The Gatting V Rana award for the best debate of the week, and the winners are: No winners this week, we are looking for someone to take over the awarding of the Gatting V Rana, any takers?

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

Yeah cuz' SS is gonna win next time (not). He will show who is boss and he completely deserves to bag all the awards next time (not even a tenth of how much I do). However, good to see him not get an award this time (he better get use to it).

Usually to be worthy of awards, you need to actually post good things.

I guess I should take this on for a couple of weeks if archie's not around...

Hooray another Sobers. Glad to see I've won that more often then most, must be doing something right then. And I think that may be my first Sir Geoffrey Award too.

Good work as usual guys. Congrats to all winners
