    Proposed Changes to the Laws

    ^^ Would be in favour of that myself actually.

    The next Kallis?

    According to Mickey Arthur, it's Mitch Marsh. Glad that Mickey clarified he didn't want to get ahead of himself! :) Silly comment IMO - Kallis is actually 'the old Watson'.

    BCCI asks Cricket Australia for more tests

    I've actually made a vow never to visit an Australia-India thread on CW again, because its put me off those contests in the past. Hopefully when it does go ahead, we get a series played in a decent spirit.

    Yeah, I think you do have a sneaky chance... of keeping it within 8 goals

    Proposed Changes to the Laws

    Don't get where you're coming from at all, in the slightest bit, here Alex. Completing the stroke while retaining enough balance not to fall out of your crease is a basic requirement of successful batsmanship. If you make a mistake and fail in this respect, you deserve to lose your wicket.

    who will be new zealands test seamers ?

    Reckon its pretty pointless picking someone just because they bowl at 140-ish rather than 130, unless they are also a better bowler.

    Battle of Cricketers - CW's Favorite Cricketer

    Hayden. Loved watching him smash teams to all parts - such a fearsome batsman.

    BCCI asks Cricket Australia for more tests

    Will help that guys like Bollinger, Harris, Watson, have had experience playing in India through the IPL. Tests are obviously different, but it will at least be somewhat familiar territory.

    who will be new zealands test seamers ?

    Aldridge and Ewen Thompson look to have been, based solely on the season stats, the two most successful bowlers in the NZ FC comp last year (along with Bates, although his avg and S/R was much worse). If the bowlers in the national team aren't looking the goods, is there anything wrong with...

    BCCI asks Cricket Australia for more tests

    Was only suggesting it as that might get us a three test series. Obviously a two test series would be better than no series, or a seven-ODI series.

    Random Country Draft Poll

    Bugger, the 24 hrs to edit that post has expired, so I can't edit it either. Maybe a mod could do it for us?

    Battle of Cricketers - CW's Favorite Cricketer

    Staggered he hasn't been pressed into the test team yet, given the way these things normally work.

    The globalization of cricket

    Rise of the Socceroos in the public's conscience as 'the national football team' has been both a cause and effect of the decline of the Wallabies.

    Random Country Draft Poll

    Certainly - post it and I'll edit it in. I didn't see them collated anywhere in the other thread (I actually used the set pulled together by HB) so it wasn't a cunning conspiracy! :)

    BCCI asks Cricket Australia for more tests

    Hopefully CA will accept, on the condition that it is made up to a 3 test series.
