    Poll: Should Smith have allowed Voges to get his triple century?

    Whatever floats your boat. That's why the third option was there. :)

    Poll: Should Smith have allowed Voges to get his triple century?

    Didn't want to prejudice the poll in the initial post, but now I'll give my opinion. Voges is 35, never expected to make his national Test team. Then he gets a shot at a triple century (and free drinks at Gayle's!), and Smith declares instead. I'm a huge Windies fan, but no way the Aussies...

    Poll: Should Smith have allowed Voges to get his triple century?

    There's a fair bit of discussion of this question in the Official thread, but the question fascinates me, and I think it's worth a poll.

    Ah, thanks for the clarification. The home link is 91.3 SportFM Perth - Sports Radio Broadcasts/Programs, Online Internet Streaming & Podcast Downloads , then click on "listen live online". The main page lists all special programs and their (local) times, including the Scorchers Women matches...

    Women's Big Bash League 2015-16

    What a fourth match, coming down to the last ball (4 runs required), after the Heat had seemed to have no hope. They came up short, but the Scorchers certainly looked vulnerable on this day. As I would expect to be the rule rather than the exception, bowling dominated on both sides, with Holly...

    Player Prediction Game

    I'm all for that, and would pick Holder as my batting all rounder in a heartbeat. His batting is really underappreciated. Duminy's AVE is 33, Stoke's is 28 1/2, Holder's is 30. 1 ton and 2 50's in 18 Test innings. Still a couple of days till the first matches start, folks who've already signed...

    1 - Warner 2 - Burns 3 - Williamson 4 - De Villiers 5 - McCullum 6 - Duminy 7 - Watling 8 - Jordan 9 - Peidt 10 - Southee 11 - Boult A. I should win by default: mine's the only ballot that's not spoiled. ;) B. VERY unhappy that I couldn't choose Holder anywhere. (If he can be subbed in for...

    Yes, Lanning was amazing too, and that was no surprise either. And thanks for the tip about Izzy Westbury.

    Women's Big Bash League 2015-16

    Guess I my just have to post to myself here. A pity there's not more interest in the WBBL. My fav (well, one of two, along with Dottin) dominated the Sydney derby. Love to see the Windies ladies do well. Was disappointed in the Sixers though, expected them to put up a lot more fight with that...

    Wastemen etc

    The first step in bringing back respect to the Windies cricket team is to fire the WICB. Unfortunately, only they can fire themselves, and they won't.

    Women's Big Bash League 2015-16

    Thanks. I've been bugging Willow TV to pick up the 8 women's matches for the U.S., but no luck so far. Pity there's no local radio. I can sometimes get England non-televised matches that way, would have thought cricket-loving Australia would have some radio broadcasts too. At least there are the...

    Women's Big Bash League 2015-16

    Wow, two great matches to start off the WBBL, and not even a thread here. I was hoping there'd be an official one, and stickied. Oh well. Heck, this is by default the biggest and best women's tournament ever, with all the best Aussie players and most of the best of the rest of the world. I...

    Can anyone tell me about use of cricket supporter?

    Adding a (rare) serious post to this fun thread, I would guess it would make sense to wear one if playing a silly position or bat-pad? Not that I'd every play those positions myself.

    Big Bash League 2014/15

    So, will Vettori be playing tonight? So hard to find out what's going on from here in the States.

    Big Bang: any source of who's absent from each team?

    I later found some good info (links) in the BB thread in the main chat.

    Free Modification for injury

    Glad to know you're considering options. I don't like having just 11 players of any type. I think it increases strategy to have to pick batsmen, bowlers, etc. But opening up all rounders to both batting and bowling, and opening up keepers to batsmen, those make sense to me.

    Thanks for all the great info! Found my own answer here to my question in the fantasy forum, lol. And now I have this thread subscribed. Life is good.

    Free Modification for injury

    Looks like we can get responses from the fantasy staff here, which is great! (I just thought to check out this part of the forum, having followed other parts, and playing fantasy on the cricketweb site for 6-8 months now.) So, my question: All rounders are placed as either bowlers or batsmen...

    Teams without team names?

    One note: if your team name was deleted (as mine was), you could modify your team to reenter your team name (and it cost no mods). Of course, that doesn't help to see other folks' team names. Moot point, since it was fixed, but if it happens again, that is one thing you can do.
