    I've edited your post in the Imran/Botham/Hadlee thread to remove the comment re the other poster. It's only going to derail the thread further. The poster in question has been banned in the past and served his time - if you see something new that you don't like report it and we'll action it...

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

    And hence the fairly gentle request to consider your language to each other - prefer the thread not to descend into bickering. Pick a better word - it's a term that is likely to cause offence and lead to the thread being derailed. Not seeking to interfere with you being able to disagree...

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

    As you say - international cricket was so relatively infrequent that FC essentially WAS top cricket in a day-to-day way. It was massively more important to a player's reputation and ability to earn a professional living in the game than is the case for today's internationals. Intensity tends...

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

    Presumably because you'd spend close to an equal amount of time actually batting/bowling/fielding in a day of FC as you would Tests. EDIT: probably more in FC when Rhodes played as they tended to fairly rip through the overs back then and get through 100+ overs a day. You can discuss relative...

    Nah, seriously, the day I need to resort to mod powers to win an argument about football with a Tigers supporter, it's the day to give away both football and posting on the interwebz :ph34r:

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

    Ikki - no call for that kind of language. Bhupinder - no need to impugn others motives if they disagree with you. Feel free to discuss the issue all you want but please do so in a civil way guys.

    Battle of Cricketers - CW's Favorite Cricketer

    Ah, carry on then. :shy: On a completely unrelated note - Vimes, when is this round ending?

    *Official* Pakistan in England 2010

    Personally thought it was a very unusual action, with the dramatic pause halfway through it, but in no way an illegal one. If the ICC haven't found that there's anything to sanction after the length of time he's been around, it's rather an academic concern in terms of this series.

    Battle of Cricketers - CW's Favorite Cricketer

    Shall we set a closing off time for the final, given Pratters is unavailable for the next couple of days? Maybe 3 hours from now? Everyone should get a chance to vote given it's the final.

    A.F.L. Thread II

    Was a good depth player and thought he had the potential to become more than that with some more time and development in our system. Would be glad to have him back.

    Consider this your first and last warning on the matter! :p Nah seriously, thanks to James and the team for the vote of confidence - I hope to do a decent job in the role.

    Who is the best spinner in world cricket today?

    Bhajji - by the question asked in the poll. The OP said however who would I rather have in the team and in that case, I'll have Hauritz thanks.

    *Official* Pakistan in England 2010

    Whoever it was that took the gloves for Kamren when he was dropped after his special during the tour of Aus seemed halfway decent. EDIT: Sarfraz Ahmed apparently.
