    That's preposterous - I don't look like that. Nah, seriously mate, ever since I got the GM, the chickie-babes are swarming. Say they haven't had things so hot down in Melbourne town since the day Pasag gave away his CW Vice-Head badge... :ph34r:

    I'm doing it for the chicks.

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

    Dire how these conversations always end up with people talking players down. I thought Bagapath's post was excellent and highlighted what should be the starting point for every post on the subject - Botham and Imran (and Sobers, Hadlee, Kapil for that matter) were amazingly, ridiculously good...

    A.F.L. Thread II

    Huge game tonight for Ess and Carl. A thrashing either way would be disastrous/hilarious depending on your affiliations. Would suggest that if the Bombers lose badly tonight, Knights won't be back next year.

    *Official* India in Sri Lanka 2010 - Tests

    Well, preying on a batsman's foolishness is hardy 'unfair' on the bowlers part. You're going to premeditate? Don't sook when doing so bites you. ( I know that's not quite what you're saying, but anyway)

    *Official* Australia in India 2010

    Johnson is so frustrating. But he doesn't have to play in England for the next little while, so hopefully we'll get more Superman days than Clark Kent ones.

    It's not all going to go horribly wrong for the Indians now is it?

    Hayden vs Sehwag (+ other tasty treats)

    Guys, don't bait Ben. He's just returned from a ban and obviously it's up to him to avoid the behaviours that prompted that ban, but the posts you've made only make it less likely he'll do so, and are likely to derail a thread for no reason.

    Hayden vs Sehwag (+ other tasty treats)

    Making a post celebrating a favourite player's accomplishment(s), on a cricket website, is hardly trolling - borderline or otherwise. I don't have a problem with threadomancy either, so longer as the new post is relevant to that threads topic.

    Don't think anyone is actually suggesting selecting Siddle though - not in the XI. And even if they were, it would be at Hilfy, not Bollinger's, expense surely.

    Cricinfo's all time XIs - India

    Gavaskar Sehwag Dravid Tendulkar Hazare Dhoni Mankad Kapil Dev Kumble Bedi Srinath 12th: Zaheer Khan (come in for Bedi if conditions demand). Been a fan of Hazare since I first read about him, although Ganguly's medium pace could see a case mounted given the bowling options available.

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

    If we're talking just in bowling terms I don't think it's that cut and dried re respective peaks, but I don't pretend to have studied it as closely as some here.

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

    Think you're significantly selling both Botham and Sobers short there, but we've been over this ground before and agreed to disagree. Botham was an awesome bowler pre-injuries, and Sobers was moderate-to-good (but agreed not great). It simply comes down to a matter of opinion as to what is...

    ****OFFICIAL**** Lara vs Tendulkar Debate Thread

    Yeah, load/hang time strikes again. Not sure whether it's my connection or the forum that's struggling atm, but its annoying. :)

    ****OFFICIAL**** Lara vs Tendulkar Debate Thread

    HB et al - Fusion asked people to stop bickering, and since then Sir Alex has stopped the off-topic stuff in this thread and it was moving back onto topic. I reckon discussing the pros and cons of Lara and Tendulkar is more interesting, in a thread called "Lara vs Tendulkar Debate Thread" than...

    Battle of Cricketers - CW's Favorite Cricketer

    Yeah, thanks Samuel for running it. Good winner - reflects that even if he's not everyone's absolute favourite, there are very few who wouldn't have him fairly high on their personal lists.

    On initial reaction, doubtful about Hilfy in Indian conditions tbh. That said, he shown he can bowl a good line, and guys like Kasper had good success there doing just that.

    He must have heard worse than that in the past - he's played ODIs in Australia! :dry: I guess it might have hit a nerve when he was in a bit of a downer anyway - you never really know what else is going on in a player's life. Threatening to go to the cops is a bit rich though.
