    **Official** India v Pakistan

    IMO - Kaif and Yuvraj need to be axed - both are non performing fielders in this Indian team. Laxman needs to be brought back to fill one of the batting slots vacated. All rounders such as Jai P Yadav, Ramesh Powar need to be brought in the side and Ganguly needs to be re-instated as captain...

    **Official** India v Pakistan

    India do have a chance, but...with 300 on the board you would have to back Pakistan at this stage.

    A 24-hr BCCI cricket channel

    I think a global cricket channel should be launched - it can become a global brand around the world.

    A 24-hr BCCI cricket channel

    Good idea IMHO. Erradicates the circus going on at the moment with the legal proceedings.

    The "bowl out" rule

    I believe it was instated as a possible decider during the ICC Knockout in Bangladesh if I'm not wrong.

    The "bowl out" rule

    In the mid 1990s the ICC passed a law that said a "bowl out" can be used to decide the result of a tied one day game. Similar to a penalty shoot out in soccer, bowlers will target the stumps and the side with the most "hits" will win the game. However I've never seen it in practice and have not...

    English spin bowlers

    This Doshi chap looks promising, I've read good reviews of the man too. Is he eligable for India or England selection?

    Countries and T.V networks with the best cricket coverage...

    MANJREKAR Is the most USELESS commentator EVER, all he does is try to sound funny and witty all the time - and in the end makes a total *** of himself.

    Ganguly politics

    Here's an excerpt from an interview with Ganguly a few years ago: ------- Question:Is it true that you refused to carry drinks onto the field early in your career? Ganguly: I don't know where this story has come from. We had a manager on the trip to Australia in 1992, Mr. Ranbir Singh. He is...

    Hemang Badani

    Sodhi is actually a very talented cricketer. Probably should be given a chance with India A again to see if he's made any progress.

    Countries and T.V networks with the best cricket coverage...

    I would have to say Sky Sports is unparallelled in terms of production quality, features (widescreen, multiview, interactive, etc.), and they always manage to get commentators representing both teams (unlike Channel 9 - who featured an all Australian commentary team for the Aus/Ind series). *...

    Hemang Badani

    WHY PICK ANOTHER BATSMAN!? A lineup of Sehwag, Tendulkar, Dhoni, Dravid, Yuvraj, and Kaif has MORE than enough batting ability to regularly post big totals. I believe an all rounder should be drafted in to balance the bowling side of things...the Indian bowling right now looks very ordinary. Jai...

    English bowling strategies for Australian batsmen

    That's because Harmison and Jones do not swing the ball. If they pitch it up they will be absolutely slaughtered.

    English bowling strategies for Australian batsmen

    I think when teams have been successful against the Australian's, there have been clear strategies laid out in consideration with the perceived weaknesses of each batsmen. New Zealand did it 5 years ago, and the Australian's themselves employ varying tactics extremely successfully against...

    Last batting place for the ashes?

    That's true, I think Thorpe's experience and composure will prove vital. He has a damn good track record as well. Bell, only being 22 can wait a couple of months. BTW..the Trescothick's keeping standard...how high is it?

    Bad eggs

    That's true SJS, I think you've hit the nail on the head there. Although I feel it is necessary to speak out when decisions of such ramifications (6 match ban to the team captain) are made.

    Last batting place for the ashes?

    I believe that Trescothick can also keep wickets? If England were daring enough, I would include Bell AND Thorpe - leaving Jones out and have him keep wickets.

    Last batting place for the ashes?

    Go with Peterson and Bell. I think this is the lineup to face the Aussies: Strauss Trescothick Bell/Thorpe Vaughan Pieterson Flintoff Jones Giles Hoggard Jones Harmison
