    England's preoccupation with the Ashes is harmful to Test cricket

    We are too preoccuied with the Ashes, we always have been. Last time round, even from the South African tour, we were already looking forward to the Ashes. and to say the truth, most countries do sort of look forward when they are bout to play the Aussies. But in our case, considering the run we...

    Is 20/20 better than ODIs ? A Poll

    Personally i like ODIs but as an Engalnd supporter, they are becoming very distasteful. However still enjoy the Aus-SA, NZ-SA, Pakistan-Aus close contests. 20/20 is a great idea though which gets alot of people interesed in cricket. I mean most people can just about sit through 120 minutes of a...

    Battle of the Test Innings

    Sehwag or Afridi might just have one of those day so don't write it off yet.8-) I agree though, 300 in one day from one man in that era where 2.5 runs per over was absolute murder, Bradman has got to have it.

    Shahid Afridi "retires from Test cricket"

    Tha is honestly one of the best ieces of good news i have had this year. Don't like seeing opposition players injured, but when they opt out, its fine by me. Saves us alot of heartache this summer

    Which international cricketer do you most resemble on the field?

    Batting- Try to bat like Yuvraj Singh, but teammates say it comes out like an ugly-Lara Bowling- I run in like Holding (nice and slow with a hint of swagger), but come in at an angle and side on like Marshall. Fielding- Self confessed live wire- other captains always make 'Jonty' remarks when...

    England and One Day Cricket?

    I feel that the only difference between Engtland and India in this current series is that their top order has constantly built a platform for the middle order guys to play, whereas our top three have constantly failed. i feel that when someone like Tres gets back, the top order will be abit...

    Where are they now Thread!

    Probably nobody cares about Zimbabwe but from recent scorecards, i don't see the name of a guy called Rainsford. He seemed their best player in the Chamion's Trophy in 2004.

    Smith and Ponting choose Flintoff

    I would have Rahul Dravid and Shane Warne for England.

    Who is your favourite cricketer?

    Yippee, You know about James Anderson's likeability factor. Only Dravid comes close. My favourite is obviously Anderson, that 10-6-12-1 won me over to cricket. I also like. -Chris Gayle [coolest customer around] -Yuvraj Singh [that forwrd defense/staright drive is something to behold] -Kevin...

    My International OverRated XI

    No i do not agree with that. Pakistani pitches are the flattest. No question in my mind.

    ***Official*** England in India

    I am not much of a betting man, but i sort of poromise that you will eat your words. No real justification for this, [and the last time Anderson played a winter test in South Africa we all know wot happendd8-) ], but i just have a good feeling about this. I am willing to put my credibilty on the...
