    CW Awards?

    Don't think it's appointing anyone above another, and even within an equal footing environment, it doesn't hurt to recognise good efforts from within the community. It would be good to ensure that it wasn't the same names winning all the time - maybe if it were done, there could be some rule...

    A.F.L. Thread II

    Saw that you'd made a post here, and as I clicked on the link to bring the thread up was thinking that I should say 'and a good win by your boys today Daz', but gagfc.

    CW Awards?

    People have raised concerns about the standard of posting in CC - I think the awards as an exercise that draws attention to, and applauds, good posts when they occur, is something that can help make the forum a better place to talk cricket. There used to be the Bradman, for best overall CC...

    Hadlee, Khan, Dev, Botham - Who was the best allrounder?

    Pretty illogical argument given they are conditions that fast bowlers have traditionally found extremely difficult to prosper in - especially India. If it's simply the case that being familiar with conditions allows you to bowl well there, then it's passing strange that Kapil Dev remains the...

    A.F.L. Thread II

    You ****s know what I'm going to say! :D :D Such a good match. **** kicking nearly cost us dear, but we got there in the end! :D Was just like a final - and you could tell that that was true because Leon Davis stunk up the G again. Swan is justifibly getting the plaudits, and people talk...

    *Official* India in Sri Lanka 2010 - Tests

    Can't even load up Cricinfo at the moment. It's like a billion people are trying to use it. :dry:

    Hadlee, Khan, Dev, Botham - Who was the best allrounder?

    Yeah, Miller's batting definitely suffered when he was asked to bowl lots of overs. End of the day, you'd be glad to have any of these four in your team.

    All time XI's

    Following my recent rejig of my world alltime XI, I came out with: Hobbs Gavaskar Bradman(c) Richards Sobers Gilchrist+ Imran(vc) Hadlee Marshall Warne Murali Not only can I not seem any team you care to compile, excluding those players, maintaining a winning record against that team, I think...

    All time XI's

    Pretty fair. I'd normally make the harsh call on Weekes and include Hunte as a specialist opener, but given the disparity between the two, and Walcott for that matter as well, it's not the worst idea to convert one of the middle order into a makeshift opener. I'd have Ambrose ahead of Roberts...

    A.F.L. Thread II

    The free kick Hille drew immediately after was hilarious though and a great way to make his point.

    The two potentially serious ones were in the 'So Your Going to Die' thread where you said you'd say a lot of racist things, and then in the Made/Ruined Your Day thread where you said racism was funny. The third one, which we agreed was much less serious, was the torrent download one. We...

    *Official* Pakistan in England 2010

    Nah, we'll be right. Our guys know how to bowl down here (unlike their efforts in England), whereas the Pom bowlers will do their traditional transformation from world-beaters to medium pace pie lobbers when the Duke is replaced with a Kookaburra in conditions that don't help swing. And they...

    Jake - you've had three blues tonight in terms of posts that aren't appropriate. The mod team will have a think about those but a couple of points 1) maybe give it a rest for tonight. 2) be conscious that any posts that - perhaps even jokingly - condone or support racism are going to be looked...
