    Keith Miller dies aged 81

    I too was very sad to hear of his passing. It took me back to 1956, Laker's year, when the BBC used to do actual commentaries of tourist and county matches. Can't remember who were playing the Aussies, but they got KM out for a duck. I let out such ashout that my parents came rushing into the...

    ICC to rebel players: You lied

    What Neil has said is right. It would seem that the players played the wrong argument; they also had a crap solicitor who seemed to be intent on rubbing everyone up the wrong way. Having said that... I do not, can not, accept the ICC's judgement on this. To say that there is no racism is a...

    Freedom of speech in the cricket world

    «Its just a tragic reflection of the Political Correctness that infests every echelon of modern society.. You cant say anything that might be taken the wrong way by anyone...» Oh, how I agree. Political correctness is all about intolerance, intimidation, twisting the truth, lying, corruption -...

    Zimbabwean Cricket: Time for The End

    That seems somewhat more feasible than the other way round! I have to agree with everything that Neil so eloquently said in his essay. What I do wonder is, would South Africa been consigned to the wilderness - where it deserved to be because of the repugnant racist policy of apartheid - if the...
