    NO Ball

    I think they should change the no ball rule in Test Cricket to that used in ODI; ie a free hit to the batting team Not as silly as it sounds, when they had the back foot no-ball law, the batsman would have time for a free hit (because the umpire called it off the back foot, which is much...

    Tv & Icc

    Can anyone tell me how it works? Does the ICC hold the rights to things such as 'Snicko', Hot Spot, Hawkeye and the like?

    Fan Is Short For?

    A die-hard Geelong fan is regretting his decision to get a tattoo celebrating the team's premiership victory while on holiday in Thailand last week. "Neville" told 3AW he paid about $150 for two tattoos on his upper arms while in Phuket last Thursday. But his loyal attempt to honour his team...

    Why Only England?

    This is from a book by Charles Box titled: Cricket Its Theory and Practice, From its Origin To The Present Time (1868) “The game is essentially English, and though our countrymen carry it abroad wherever they go, it is difficult to inoculate or knock it into the foreigner. The Italians are too...
