    Off-spin and Leg-spin are named wrong

    Wonder whether anyone goes back and revises the classification should they unveil one, and to what standard/regularity do they need to produce it before the change occurs?

    You've got a lot of **** players as well if that makes you feel any better about Knights...

    A.F.L. Thread II

    Pies were just what you'd hope tonight playing a more lowly opposition - fairly ruthless over 4 quarters. The Kangas have some decent players, but they were shown up in terms of depth and bodies with the years in the system to be strong over the ball and gut-run. Really pleased with how guys...

    Different measurements of bowlers

    ^ Exactly the point of this thread. Different stats give you different perspectives, and using those different perspectives in combination you can get a more complete view, but obviously nothing substitutes for actually watching the guys play.

    Different measurements of bowlers

    Yeah, would be an interesting stat to work out, even to see the degree it correllates with public perception of 'greatness'. Maybe could be expressed as a percentage "wickets taken in five+ hauls/total wickets" eg: Shane Warne is 211/708 = 29.8% Glenn McGrath is 161/563 = 28.5%. hmmm, maybe...

    Understand that Kamran Akmal Rana Naved ul Hasan and Fawad Alam were particularly upset by the conspiracy that meant that the girls stopped flirting everytime they came near... :ph34r:

    Do some countries view cricket like horse racing ?

    Don't think cricket is really a bogan/nouveau riche concern anywhere in the manner of horse racing.

    watching test cricket at stadium?

    Fortunately they have bars at the ground. Spent most of Steyn's innings at the MCG there.

    A.F.L. Thread II

    As I'm sure you'll quote my previous if you pull out a win. I think we'll see some clever coaching by Scott to minimize the beating in the centre, and Wellingham is actually a pretty big out for us given the form he's been in. That said, while I think Scott's going to be an excellent coach...

    Proposed Changes to the Laws

    I don't think they're going to introduce a change to the very rules of the game itself simply to stop the career of Stuart Broad mate.... :ph34r:
