    Worst dropped catch in the history of the game

    Langeveldt against Australia at the WACA a coupla years ago IIRC

    Second Round Group E - South Africa, India, New Zealand, England

    Really magnificent bowling from Vettori killed us the match. Really need to be more innovative, just so flat footed and looking for 2's and 3's just swinging it like Disco Stu every ball just won't do it

    Second Round Group E - South Africa, India, New Zealand, England

    Bowl-Outs

    If you're gonna have a bowl out you should have some sort of minimum speed limit on how fast you have to bowl the ball (say 100 km/h - spinners have to bowl quicker balls.) I think that way it increases the difficulty component on hitting the stumps as then you can't have something like Powar's...

    Sohail Tanvir replaces Akhtar

    Still looks like a blinking robot tho.

    Great team effort from the Roos today, solid contributions from all the players. After last week's shocker, the boys applied a lot more of the typical Roos pressure and their intensity and attack at the football was first rate throughout. The Hawks appeared a little flat-footed but that...

    Anyone know why DD National aren't showing this match ?? Thought they had shared rights

    Dravid resigns as India captain

    News of Dravid's resignation really came from nowhere. The media weren't pressuring him nor was he doing a bad job to warrant a resignation. Really suprised, I suppose captaining India is always gonna be a poisoned chalice. Must say I'd like to have Sourav back as captain, he is back an settled...

    GROUP B - Australia, England, Zimbabwe

    Well, Australia has to win irrespective of the result of today's match, it's probably better that one team thrashes the other so they can win on NRR.

    GROUP B - Australia, England, Zimbabwe

    It seems like they're gonna go helter-skelter against the other England bowlers and play carefully against Flintoff. Not a bad plan, but do they (Zimbabweans) have the requisite skills to pull it off ??

    West Coast vs Collingwood Kangaroos vs Hawthorn Here goes reverse psychology - tipping the Hawks but c'mon KANGAS

    GROUP D - India, Pakistan, Scotland

    Reading Arjun's post about the players I haven't seen before (Yusuf, Joginder etc) My Odi XI will be: Sehwag Uthappa Dhoni* Yuvraj R Sharma Karthik/ Y Pathan I Pathan J Sharma Chawla/Harbhajan Singh Sreesanth Reserves: Gambhir (unconvinced may replace Sharma) & Agarkar (even the AAAS are...

    Na, I meant Firrito on Franklin & Brown on Roughead. Brown's not that bad a defender just lacks a bit of pace but he makes up for it in strength as someone like Cameron Ling would attest to.

    *Official* Tennis Thread

    Man, you gotta to hand it to Federer, upped the ante and played brilliantly at all the crucial points. You can just sense that whenever Djokovic had a decent look in, Federer would just find a way to overcome him. Federer clearly wasn't playing at his free flowing best and when he's not hitting...

    A.F.L Thread

    There should be a rule that Kangas should never finish 4th because whenever we do, we get absolutely creamed by a red-hot side. The last time we finished 4th, we got belted by 125 pts against Essendon in 2000, in a year where Essendon steamrolled pretty much everyone faster than Hurricane...

    ***Official*** India in England

    Haven't seen enough of Sharma to confirm he is better but Gambhir certainly doesn't look international class and is really a very poor man's Hayden (minus the horizontal bat strokes) in the sense that he will only cash in when the conditions and the pitch is perfect.

    A.F.L Thread

    Agree with Hoggy's tips. Oh god I dearly hope we beat the Cats, I reckon we can do it but I still think it would be a fairytale come true. Collingwood/Sydney shapes up to be a thriller but due to their general midfield hardness and Hall back, I'd have to back Sydney KANGAS all the way !!

    Who would you have?

    We definitely need an allrounder and I'm gonna pick one out of left field and say Moises Henriques (for India) if he can overcome his injuries and and get a couple of solid FC seasons under his belt he'd be the ideal allrounder to come in at No. 7 + the fact that he's a 10 year prospect which...
