International Cricket Captain General Thread of Miscellany

Marginally better than James Hildreth almost always taking the second new ball for the somehow-promoted Gloucestershire in 2016.

And being rather successful in doing so.

Luke Feldman averaging 30 with the bat and 19 with the ball also mildly concerning.

Ludicrous end to a 2017 CC match.

I'd made 7dec/350 thanks to contributions all down the order, then in perfect bowling conditions let Durham make 335 in reply.

In the second dig, I decided to bat until there's an hour to go on Day 3 and give myself a day-and-a-bit to bowl them out. We go into tea with Michael Carberry on 75*, in a pretty good position, so I set him to go nuts when we came back out. I ended up batting a bit longer than I meant to, as Carberry got himself to 179* - the 100 in the session was far too special to declare on. Left me with all of Day 4 to bowl them out - or so I thought.

5:12 of the day was lost to rain, leaving only 14 overs possible throughout the day.

Durham: 19 all out, 13.4 overs.
W Parris: 6/12 (7)
R Mundy: 4/5 (6.4)

Is there any way I could get my Australian Cricket Captain 1998 to work? Also, does someone have the original International Cricket Captain 1998? Can it, somehow, run on Windows 7 or later?

So, despite playing for all that time, he still has fewer wickets in all formats than Andy Caddick managed in his career.

I was lucky to even find it. I'm not playing as Australia but I was just flicking through their bowlers and I saw Johnson was still there at age 45 or whatever. Been keeping an eye on him ever since.

Current XI is very pace-heavy:
1. U Chand 2. S Yadav 3. V Kohli 4. G Gambhir 5. D Karthik 6. S Smith 7. I Pathan 8. K Barker 9. K Sharma 10. D Kulkarni 11. L Malinga

Spinning deck XI:
1. U Chand 2. G Gambir 3. V Kohli 4. S Smith 5. D Karthik 6. K Pollard 7. I Pathan 8. R Ashwin 9. K Sharma 10. D Kulkarni 11. L Malinga/P Ojha


International players are a false economy. Invest more in gun Indians IMO. Sharma is crazily gun, and Kulkarni is a bit too good to be true as well.
