    ***Official*** Sri Lanka in Bangladesh 2014

    On this pitch, against this attack, if Matthews, Vithanage and Perera can avoid playing dumbass shots like Chandimal just did, Sangakkara could have a decent stab at Lara's record score tomorrow...

    Your top ten TEST bowlers of ALL-TIME

    I'm not arguing with the general premise that Hadlee was one of the greats, but I'm not sure about the advantages or otherwise of playing as a lone bowler vs as one part of a great attack. Hadlee had a lot of things in his favour - he got his choice of ends every time, and had a large say in...

    ***Official*** Sri Lanka in Bangladesh 2014

    Whatever Tamim's match fee is, he should be fined all of it and then some by his team-mates for that shot....

    ***Official*** Sri Lanka in Bangladesh 2014

    Good to see the tradition of minnows getting rough end of umpire's decisions carries on. Bangladesh can't afford not to play with DRS.... (if anyone's wondering what I'm on about, Jayawardene plumb lbw to Gazi reverse sweeping, Reiffel saw something different to the rest of us). Of course, it...

    ***Official*** Australia in South Africa 2013/14

    Bailey's test career : played 5 won 5. Not many players can say that. Bresnan should have retired while his record was similar...

    *Official* Fifth Test at the SCG

    AWesome catch from Clarke... Bailey's was very droppable as well. Just on fire....

    *Official* Fifth Test at the SCG

    I agree there's no ****ing way England are getting 400-odd, but if they do, Australia are going to look pretty bloody silly for this passage of play.

    *Official* Fifth Test at the SCG

    Did people really think Rankin was quick? He makes Tremlett at Brisbane look like Patrick Patterson....

    *Official* Fifth Test at the SCG

    No second slip / gully with Lyon to Rankin?? Clarke is such a negative captain...

    *Official* Fifth Test at the SCG

    What's with all the left-handers in England's line-up? Five bowlers who bowl right handed but bat left?????

    *Official* Fifth Test at the SCG

    Good of England to introduce some drama into their dismal defeats - will they get beyond the follow-on score...

    *Official* Fifth Test at the SCG

    Pitches not bouncing as much as they used to?

    *Official* Fifth Test at the SCG

    I'd made such a crap skipper, was thinking Siddle should have been off and Watson on for that last over....

    *Official* Fifth Test at the SCG

    It's a controversial statement but I'm going to go there... I don't think Bairstow is all that good.

    *Official* Fifth Test at the SCG

    So Borthwick is about where Steve Smith was three years ago?

    ***Official*** West Indies in New Zealand 2013/14

    Good over from Milne. Went at less than half the required run rate...

    ***Official*** Pakistan v Sri Lanka in UAE 2013/14

    And Lakmal... seriously? There's no-one better than him ? Yikes, collapse to the new guy....

    ***Official*** Pakistan v Sri Lanka in UAE 2013/14

    Sri Lanka have picked four wicket-keepers in their line-up. Must be a record of some sorts?

    England post ashes 13/14

    I think it's only 5 actually - Cook, Bell, Pietersen, Broad and Anderson. I suspect the selectors want to include Root in that list, but they shouldn't. And on form from the past two series alone, you can make an argument against Anderson.

    *Official* Fourth Test at the MCG

    we all knew australia had this performance in them though, didn't we? think only harris has been out to a decent ball and even then he should have been able to cope with it.
