    *Official* Indian Premier League 2010

    I just tried to figure out what the IPL mess is really about. But all I can see is a lot ( real lot) of craphola mumbojumbo around the mess. Could anyone tell me in 5 lines maximu what went ellegedly wrong? Is nuancated not proper English? Should I've been using nuanced? Or should I have been...

    Ponting: Amongst the Top 5 Fielders?

    One might argue the reason that Ponting has so much fielding experience, is simply because he was always there, based on his batting... Ponting is a very good fielder. Simple as that. And he has been in field 100s of times. So yes, he has 100s of good actions in the field. I still don't think...

    Yes they should, but not to me, at this moment in time. As a consumer, I simply like their product. I do, like most consumers, hardly ever wonder what kind of organisation is behind the product or service, in the first place. Yet, at some point, I have to wonder if things are ok. I guess that is...

    Ponting: Amongst the Top 5 Fielders?

    Ponting top 5 fielder? That's an idea I would never have come up with! Sure, he's a fine fielder, but I've seen him miss out on a few chances.

    I think a more nuancated way to tell it, is that nothing in the world is in black & white. Whatever dark sides the IPL organisation might have, they are the only ones bringing live top cricket to my house!

    You know what really grinds my cricketing gears?

    I actually use them in the field too. Far better than old fashioned crap legguards

    Are we really discussing that KKR was wrongly deprived of the possibility to score 300 runs in an T20 innings?

    You know what really grinds my cricketing gears?

    It was new to me. And apart from that a very good rant! The IPL is the only cricket I can watch at home. So I watch it a lot. And I like it a lot! However, I find the IPL commentary quite ridiculous. Just anything is great, awesome, never seen something like that, amazing, whaddaplayah, best...

    I just did so last week! No answer yet though.

    So what does the future hold for West Indies?

    What about Shane Shillingford? He did well and seems to have a decent First Class record.

    *Official* Indian Premier League 2010

    Not so sure about that. It sounds ridiclulous, but is it? Losing the toss meant that the odds changed from bloody unlikely, yet mathematically possible to mathematically impossible. KKR were in a hopeless position anyway! Another issue: Imagine KKR batting first and winning by 111 runs. That...

    *Official* English Domestic Season Thread 2010

    Before I go on: @ marc71178: Where did you get RtD's county figures of 41 with the bat and 36 with the ball? I can't fin it on cricino (shows tests, T20s, ODIs, 1st class and list A, not county as itself). Anyway, I think that any player that averages higher with the bat than with the ball on a...

    Though I did mean the former, I can't seriously think which player is better than RtD, yet has never played a test.

    Would You Go Along To A Neutral Test Match?

    I'm Dutch and I love Test Cricket. That sums it up, right?
