    Why was the crowd that stoned the Australians angry?

    Well I say the article is one sided because it goes on and on about how the aussies suffered but makes no mention about why the crowd stoned them. Its like it avoids the most obvious question. Why? There has to be a reason right. No one starts stoning people without a bloody good reason.

    Why was the crowd that stoned the Australians angry?

    Hello Cricinfo has an article about the '82 series where the australian players touring pakistan got stoned and one of them even stoned back :). Anyway the article is very one sided because it does not tell us why the crowd were so angry at the aussies. The aussie were getting their behinds...

    ***Official*** Sri Lanka in the West Indies

    Sri Lanka keep loosing to Pakistan because Pakistan is the exact opposite of SL. Sri Lanka take wickets at regular intervals, pakistan in batches. SL have a terrible lower batting order that can never ever take advantage of the death overs, Pakistan had Abdurrazzaq. SL had a strong opening...

    ***Official*** IPL match discussion thread

    I think delhi has the best balanced team. Great batting in Sehwag, de villiers, Malik and gambhir, quality pace attack in mcgrath, asif and maharoof and a good spinner in vetori. Chennai and punjab are good too. But punjab is dumb to have yuvraj as captain over jayawardene. Surely Jayawardene...

    Where are the Black Batsmen?

    Afridi is an example of a batsman who turned into an above average bowler. So we are to believe that rich black kids are lazy and fat? So they turn to bowling? There have been plenty of overweight batsman in world cricket over the years and next to none overweight bowlers. So how come if rich...

    Which country produces more raw talent?

    What the hell is symonds then? Yeah Pakistan produces the most talent but also wastes the most. I think SL is also up there. For a country of just 19 mill (1 mill work abroad) it has produced quite a few cricketers.

    Most under-rated players

    Names don't invite puns. Some people's intolerance, bias and immaturity does cause them to make fun of others.

    Most under-rated players

    He has a very nice name. I have never heard of any jokes made about it and anybody that makes jokes about Maharoof's name needs to learn to be tolerant of others. It may be part of your culture to make fun of people's names but it certainly isn't part of mine. It is considered intolerant to make...

    Sri Lanka Thread

    Yeah I think he's exaggerating a bit. There was Sri Lanka beating India, heading the table after the group stages, thrashing New Zealand twice etc. So lots of good things happened in this tournament. Joking :laugh: Seriously though you had the whole minnow power thing going. Bangladesh and...

    Sri Lanka Thread

    Regardless of how Fernando handled the whole warning thing I was very impressed with how the senior members of the team "mediated" and handled the situation. Jayawardene immediately came after the second warning and talked to Fernando. At the end of the over Jayasuriya was talking to the umpire...

    Semi Finals

    I am so excited about the semis. I can't wait for the matches to start. I love Sri Lanka and hope they do well today. Now is the crunch time for all the remaining teams in the World Cup. As you guys know recent matches between SL and NZ have been pretty open affairs. The SL tour to NZ ended in...

    International Cricket Team (Plese Read This is about my future)

    Why should he aim to do better than Sajid Mahmood? Is there a quota system in place in English cricket? Why not aim to be better than Flintoff or Plunkett?

    Sri Lanka Thread

    I think a better selection for today's match would be to replace tharanga with Atapattu. But only for today's match. This way you bring some pressure on Tharanga to perform. I think its wrong to replace Chamara Silva with Attapattu. Silva has already scored 4 50s in this WC including the one in...
