    Why is Lillee rated above Imran?

    Looks better my way tbh the "/" at the end commands respect ... except from pedantic ****s :ph34r:

    Why is Lillee rated above Imran?

    I prefer a simple three tier bowler rating system, each level named for a bowler I randomly think of at the time to fit these categories whenever such player v player discussions arise. Malcolm Marshall Tier - reservered for the awesomely awesome Sean Pollock Tier - not quite ATG Merv Hughes...

    Why is Lillee rated above Imran?

    Booo, absolute rubbish. There isn't any such widespread cultural sentiment from either Aussies or the English. Few Brits lament the loss of the colonies nor is there any real acrimony from us Crims towards the mother country for transporting us.

    Jonathan Trott: The making of a legend?

    Especially with the additional pressure as a newly minted Captain. imho Trott has a better technique than Cook while showing the same mental strength - I feel he will finish with a slightly higher test average.

    Jonathan Trott: The making of a legend?

    I think also Cook was served up a lot of hearty meat pies in Aus which does help during a run of form - however it's not Cooks fault we're crap and I admire his determination and consistency.

    Cricket related coincidences / anomalies

    Thanks Burgy :) Craig and I have somewhat of a symbiotic cricketing relationship we both got hit in the jatz crackers in the same trial game, tho I wasn't wearing a box :wacko: I left it at home and wasn't about to borrow one. These days it's the first thing I check in my cricket bag before...

    Cricket related coincidences / anomalies

    Hi all, I've been a long time lurker here and thanks to CW have gained quite a few insights into the game. Anyhoo I was chatting with a mate yesterday about an incident that happened to us about 10 years ago and thought it might make for an interesting thread. In the early 90's I was playing...
