    Your countries worst XI this century

    If this is just for tests then fine but if your looking at an XI of players who have played across the board for England, there have been worse openers. Didnt Knight have a pretty good time in the ODIs?

    ***Official*** England in India 2016/17

    England have a 2 week break right? How is that right. I can't think of the last time a touring side got 2 weeks off in the middle of a tour....especially after playing the bollocks they just did. I can understand its Christmas and all but that should mean getting 4 days off, like most people at...

    ***Official*** Pakistan in Australia 2016/17

    I'd back that but not at the expense of playing Nawaz.

    *Official* Bangladesh in New Zealand 2016/2017

    I think adding 2 tour games to the Eng/Pak series this past summer really helped the tourists. They didn't have preparations of that sort against NZ and had the most basic prep for Australia. Which brings me onto a second point, touring sides, whether it's subcont teams going outside or those...

    Joe Root v Virat Kohli

    I'm glad they had it all in the headline because I can't bare listening to that accent. No offense. It's almost as bad as trying to listen to a scouser.

    Shafiq and Pak's Unbeaten Streak

    Look, if you can't understand how great Miandad was you need to watch and read more about cricket. But we can carry this on via pm as this is the wrong thread for it. No it's not. Age was only a slight point I mentioned. Good try though :) Also, for Shafiq he has made himself a number 6...

    Shafiq and Pak's Unbeaten Streak

    Anyway let's keep on track. Shafiq over Rahane considering Rahane only has a handful of tests at Shafiqs best position (thus far). I think Shafiq is ready for 3 or 4 once Khan and Misbah go. Azam should probably come down at 5 and I honestly believe Sharjeel given enough confidence could do a...

    Shafiq and Pak's Unbeaten Streak

    So now you've just backtracked because you don't want to settle on an XI and you think the only batsman alongside Hobbs to never average below 50 at any point in his career isn't at least deserving of a second spot pick somewhere in the middle order? Alright fella :)

    CW Cricket Awards 2016

    Forum awards are bollocks and beneath a true intellectual like me. Anyway, shady's up for judging. If no one else gets in touch probably by tonight or tomorrow it'll just be us two.

    CW Cricket Awards 2016

    So, this has been my first year here, been around for a couple months but I was wondering does the forum have yearly cricketing awards? I reckon we could do a better job than the ICC in putting together an annual award (covering all matches played in the calendar year for 2016). Let me know if...

    ATG XI 1900s-2000s

    That's a weird one with Hadlee for the 80s and Steyn for the 00s but I guess you were going in batting order. Still I'd have Khan for the 80s and pushed for bowlers in the 00s I'd go for McGrath, Warne or Murali and of course keep the 90s for Akram. But i like the idea of syncing it with batting...

    Shafiq and Pak's Unbeaten Streak

    I understand the reasoning but that limits you to only 11, maybe 12 or 13 at a stretch, players that you'd rank as ATG. I'm curious to see what you're XI is.

    Shafiq and Pak's Unbeaten Streak

    Shafiq > Rahane for me...for now. But yeah, I disagree with the portion of the cricinfo article that talks about the big three bias in the media, which is certainly a problem but the bigger issue is that the Pakistani media itself ignores Shafiq. The same way they ignored Khan and Misbah for so...
