    The ``ASHES`` and the Pietersen diillema

    giles is capable of bowling long and effective spells as well. sami might be as good as Flintoff but don't try and disgrace Hoggard by putting him on the same plane with Rana

    The ``ASHES`` and the Pietersen diillema

    Dilhara fully fit how good can he be. I could say, James Anderson fully fit and firing how destructive can he be. Zoysa-Lewis, Malinga-Mahmood [pace for pace], Chandana-i will grant you coz we don't have many spinners and who the heck is Suraj

    The ``ASHES`` and the Pietersen diillema

    As the Dale Steyn-Strauss exchanges showed, pace without incisive accuracy is fodder

    who is the toughest cricketer???

    Thats the one for me too. As someone said, you need a ladder to simply get to punch him in the face. Afridi looks rock solid. Flintoff must have one of the strongest fuses because he never seems to lose his rag, always smiling :D :D :D . mind you this picture would put me off fighting...

    The second tier of test cricket

    True that Bangaldesh have finally started getting in a few good performances and i will agree with you that they should be left there. But Zimbabwe. Oh My Days :-O that was not test cricket they were playing yesterday. Decent perfomance though in their second innings.

    How good a pair are Harmison and Flintoff ?

    :blink: :blink: He took 16 wickets in the first 2 matches in that series :D

    The second tier of test cricket

    thank You. Someone has stated this before and i strongly feel it will work. Teams like: Zimbabwe, Bangladesh, Kenya and other teams on the fringes Play with A Teams of the well off teams like England, Australia, New Zealand, India etc. this would benefit everyone as the big teams can learn...

    The ICC Super Series

    that is why this Aussie team is Great. Every 11 that they send out always makes the best they can out of every situation. The point being made was that this is the Greatest team not the greatest collection of players. If you wanted the greatest collection, you can go and look at all those...

    Best ending to a game

    After wharf had desroyed the middle order, butler comes in at 10 with Kent at 113-8 to win it for Kent by one wicket with 6 needed off the last ball. http://www.cricinfo.com/db/ARCHIVE/2004/ENG_LOCAL/NLF/SCORECARDS/29-31AUG2004/GLAM_KENT_NLF_29AUG2004.html

    Who is this Legend Quiz !

    Amazing that scorecard with 8 batsmen passing 50. i remember one of England's innings last year when all batsmen went into double figures. Another one of Trumble's feats was that he managed to score 1000 runs and take 100 runs in one summer.

    The ``ASHES`` and the Pietersen diillema

    in my usual patriotic self, i feel that England are going to push the Aussies this series. i feel the injection of Strauss and Pietersen over the last few months in the batting department is going to prove vital. It is essential that Strauss, Pietersen and either of Thorpe/Vaughan have a good...

    Who is this Legend Quiz !

    -Hugh Tumble ???? -the perfomance was two hat-tricks which he shares with Wasim Akram and TJ Mathews -And i understand was a good defensive batsman with 3 FC hundreds and 4 Test fifties

    Rahul Dravid vs Ricky Ponting

    yep that is the one that i feel is most likely to score 40 centuries and 10,000+ runs. He seems to have a almost perfect game. and he has scored is it 9 centuries in the his last 14 matches. Another bright star who could reach such feats might be Micheal Clarke. If Pietersen has a nice 13+ yr...

    Players who've overcome physical disadvantages

    i know its not rocket science but if someone says ''Giles is a legspinner to right handers and an offspinner to left handers'', then wot is he? Isn,t it easier to say that Giles is left arm orthodox. . wot i am saying is that if all cricketers were Right Hand batsmen and Right hand batsmen...

    How good a pair are Harmison and Flintoff ?

    Oh Yeah, How does this make sense?????? :blink: :blink: You first figure out someone and totally know how to play him then he ends up getting 12 for 126 against them. alot of figuring out they did. didn't they Richard?

    Rahul Dravid vs Ricky Ponting

    it is simply a personal ting. i first sat for some time thinking about the two and how i can draw a fine line between them. The fact that Ponting is slightly more aggresive is why i chose him. If Dravid is as entertaining as Ponting i would have chosen him but he is not. If there was five...

    Players who've overcome physical disadvantages

    Why are you people confusing things? So you mean that if there is a partnership of a left and right-hander that Giles is bowling to, he's bowling specification will keep changing from Legspin to offspin and vice-versa everytime a single is taken. -Giles is Slow Left Arm [SLA] simple as. or...

    Rahul Dravid vs Ricky Ponting

    i agree with all of it but as i usually tend to go for entertainment over steadiness. there are loads of other players who can entertain [Afridi] but Ponting just has much more class and sense than the rest of them . That is the reason why i voted for Ponting [ATM i am the only one]. you might...

    Best Last Over Bowlers

    All time would have to be Wasim Akram or Garner.
