The Warne for best thread 2. The Bradman for best poster And then there were eight, can Ireland cause another upset? Will SA choke? Will Australia cause WC history? Are the hosts going all the way? Or maybe SL can make it No. two The CW Awards Team Alternative (milestones) Marc (awards judge) Richard (Sir Geoffrey, and Sobers) Adharcric (Afridi and Hussey) Position vacant (Warne and Bradman) Archie (whatever else is left over) If you are celebrating a “Posts” milestone this week, please let Manju (Alternative) know, you can contact him at hunterbhai at hotmail dot com All other awards nominations to be sent to cwawards@cricketmail.net 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: Sunny Mehta for this click here a lot said about India (I tipped them to win) this was one of the rare posts that was not totally over the top 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 Dravid for this click here , quality posting on this thread, with everyone showing respect and maturity in expressing their views. 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: Voltman click here And once again I don’t understand the Voltman humour 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: Mr Mxyzptlk top week of posting 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: pup Clarke for this click here He went on to make 160 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: ekshi for this click here not sure who he is talking to? Or why! 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: Fusion good stuff re ‘where do Pakistan go from here’ and also intelligent posts on Bob Woolmer The Bradman Award (Overall CW poster of the week) Simply the best no matter what the debate or criteria. And the Winner is: no award this week Agarkar/Mohammed award for ('At least they’re 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: Richard I think we will make it a rule that no one can win this award more then two weeks in a row 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: Pup Clarke Two awards going well mate The Gatting V Rana award for the best debate of the week, and the winners are: no winners this week Saj Award for best rant of the week (following Saj's outburst after the 3rd Test, and no Saj, we don't know what you were doing out there either, it's a sad indictment on the quality of our reserves: And the Winner is: steds for this click here trivial anyone? Still I tend to agree Marsh/Lillee Award (Best prediction of the week) they took 500/1 against England winning after following-on, and won, um lost. And the Winner is: no award this week Please remember, these awards are not officially endorsed by CW management

After all that banter with C_C I was hoping for some compensation. Not meant to be! Congrats all.
