    Wisden- How important to Cricket is it?

    Understandably, it was in its (comparatively) early stages. But this is 20 years ago, and the majority of the book is virtually unreadable.

    Wisden- How important to Cricket is it?

    I bought a second-hand copy of the 1983 Wisden the other day and thought it was interesting how much the book had changed in less than 20 years. The Notes by the Editor were the most interesting bit, but I can't say I was too impressed with some of the comment sections. There was an article...

    Bopara makes 5 in 53 minutes before being cleared up by Darren Powell, can't think of a worse possible day to have.

    Battle of Cricketers - CW's Favorite Cricketer

    AB de Villiers x2 Virender Sehwag x2 Can't really go for players I've only seen glimpses of in the archives. Goughy was never entirely my cup of tea, nor is KP.

    Battle of Cricketers - CW's Favorite Cricketer

    Cairns, first real memories of watching Test cricket are him and Nash making a mess of England on the opening day of the Second Test in '99. That slower ball to get rid of Read.

    *Official* English Domestic Season Thread 2010

    Gale swans off to play for the Lions for a few days, leaving Rudolph to make the winner of the worst declaration of the season award a foregone conclusion.

    Cricinfo: Breaking the laws

    I'd be happy for the LBW law to be changed. The backing-up idea has some merit has well. In theory, getting rid of leg-byes would make sense, but it would be another issue for the umpire to have to keep an eye out for. There are often cases of leg-byes/runs being given when the replay showed...

    Your Cricket Season 2010

    You do wonder why he's playing at that standard though - a village Sunday league. It might be nice to watch, but I'd feel a little aggrieved if I was playing on either side.

    Leave the County Championship Alone

    It does all seem too contrived, looking back on old scorecards. There would have to be a significant incentive for risking a win or teams would end up settling for comfortable draws.

    Group E - Netherlands, Denmark, Japan, Cameroon

    Looks quite a weak side TBH, without Schneider it would have no core whatsoever.
