    The CW 50 - CricketWeb's view of the top 50 cricketers of all time

    Agreed - would potentially get more votes in that way as well. Or we could go with Sean's proposal that we email it to him and he does all the work, while acting as a filter establishing a basic level of knowledge amongst the voters. In btw

    I think he just posted a :laugh: in response to a claim he was a better opener than Matthew Hayden. :ph34r:

    Will Shaun Marsh be better than his father for Australia?

    Lol at this thread. I'll answer the original question by saying I can't see Shaun ever playing a test.

    The 90s and 00s banlisted draft thread

    Can't believe I get to take the new cherry. Am going to **** it up for sure - every other draft I've been right at the end of the first round after all the obvious guys have gone. I'll say Andy Flower

    Fighting kolpak

    Nah, it would be the reverse of a boycott. Teams would be saying "I'm happy to come to play in SA, with the team of eligible players, according to our rules, that we've selected". CSA would either have to object and refuse to take part if a player who had signed that clause was named, or...

    I don't think such a clause could be binding, and it would fall over the first time it was tested anyway. Say Pietersen had signed that clause. Then he makes himself available for this coming tour of SA. The English selectors are going to chose him, and CSA would be in the position of...

    Would almost certainly breach the law in any country that had non-antique labour laws, as well as a common law tradition. How are you going to prohibit cricketers from emigrating anyway? Sounds like Soviet Russia. You'll have junior cricketers defecting when they tour England or Australia.

    Agree with that review as well. There's enough in Dizzy to make you feel there's a ripper autobiography to be had about the guy, but it falls well short of that.

    Halfway through Paul Barry's Spun Out. Think Archie's review on the site has hit a number of the nails on their head. I'm enjoying it, but I automatically get annoyed when the author tells you his conclusions at the start and then unapologetically structures his book to make the case for that...
