    Who cares about a strong West Indies?

    I'm not sure I've heard anyone say 'cricket needs a strong England'.. Everyone seemed to love it when the old colonial power was in the dumps during the 90's..

    Who cares about a strong West Indies?

    Are we watching the same series? Sabina Park has about 20 people inside.. Maybe they are all huddled somewhere I haven't seen

    Who cares about a strong West Indies?

    I recently heard a spokesperson for the ECB explain how it was important for the game that cricket is strong in the Caribbean and was shocked at how the ECB actually pledge some sort of funding to the WICB in order to pull their cricket out of the situation it finds itself in. This is connected...

    No Lord's Test for the Windies in 2012

    I was working in Cardiff during the SL test match and came across very few people who even knew it was going on in their city. Those who did were very negative about it.. Cricket culturally is seen as an English game and more was said about the rugby match against the Barbarians.. Apparently the...

    South Africa Domestic season 2010-11

    I hate this so much, just when I thought we were shot of the fourth worst post isolation player to represent SA, he snicks back in via the IPL.. Perhaps I'm overly biased against Albie, but I really hope they don't throw him the ball and just use him as a lower order hitter..

    Worst Test XI from your country

    I'll have a go at re-admission SA, not a lengthy period of time to choose from, and three mediocre spinners.. All the fast bowling would have to be done by de Bruyn and Pretorius .. Harsh having to include Dippenaar as he's for a long time been my favourite batsman, but the numbers don't back...

    Worst Test XI from your country

    Never understood the Darren Pattinson hate.. He was arguably the best England bowler throughout the entirity of his test career. If its because he is an Aussie, I don't understand that either based on the makeup of the current squad..

    You know what really grinds my cricketing gears?

    Don't you just love the feeling you get when you live in a modern multi-racial democracy after reading another one of Roebuck's gushings?

    World's worst Test XI (minimum 25 tests)

    one of my favourite batsmen to watch, shows that technique at the end of the day counts for not nearly everything.. I am amazed that Sami played all those tests with an average over 50, that is incredible..

    English Domestic Season 2011

    just made a thread, surely he must have netted and couldn't have been that woeful.. I love how they shoved him up the order though

    Adrian Shankar

    Not sure if this has been posted elsewhere but what a bizarre story about a player faking his way to the top of the game.. Reminds me of Ali Dia County news: Exposed Shankar released by Worcestershire | Cricket News | County Cricket 2011 | ESPN Cricinfo

    Terry Jenner is dead

    RIP He coached me in a few sessions at Lord's about eight years ago.. I can see where he got his reputation from and am sure he was half the story behind Shane Warne.

    Martin Crowe has Mid Life Crisis (and may well pull it off)

    Ridiculous choice, and if he does pull it off, I take it he isnt concerned about taking the place of a middle order batsman who actually has a future in the game?

    Would south africa

    In that case, wouldn't this have been a better picture?

    *Official* Match 39 - Bangladesh v South Africa

    Sweet to wake up to this.. Have absolutely no love for Bangladesh at all and really hope they get dumped out of their own world cup in what should be less than an hours time :)

    History of ODI Uniforms

    They didnt get rid of it per se, but I think teams are now obliged to turn out whatever their kit sponsor wants them to wear, hence the change

    History of ODI Uniforms

    No connection to the flag AFAIK, but green and gold is used for all SA sporting teams..
