    Indian Cricket Dhaba

    Surely in that case, the team scoring more in the first innings will get more bonus points anyway though? It would be a pretty ****ed up points system to produce anything else?

    *Official* Bangladesh in New Zealand 2016/2017

    Why? It wouldn't make the slightest scrap of difference to the India Test.

    Zimbabwe are Improving!

    Far better for them then them not getting the use of the facilities and training.

    ***Official*** England in India 2016/17

    Yes, most of these complaints are being more than a little overstated. As for Cricket being only just behind Football, you're having a laugh aren't you?

    **Official** County Cricket 2016

    And being an all format first pick, Stokes won't be playing much, if any, for Durham, regardless of if he gets a gig in India.

    **Official** County Cricket 2016

    In spite of being red ball only players, Anderson and abroad barely played county cricket last year so there's no way the linchpin of all 3 sides will be playing. IPL is actually a different matter as it helps him develop white ball skills directly before a global white ball tournament.

    **Official** County Cricket 2016

    What Stokes chooses to do is nothing to do with Durham. He's not employed by them and they don't pay him a penny. Even if he doesn't go to the IPL, it is exceedingly unlikely he'd play county cricket in the interim. As for criticising people for wanting to maximise their earning potential in...

    S Africa calls for its players to stay

    Obviously you think it is an easy thing to fix then? What obvious things have they been missing?

    Misbah now averages 35 outside UAE/Pakistan

    So you change what is relevant to suit your argument and attempt to discredit Smith then. Thanks for clearing that up for us.

    Misbah now averages 35 outside UAE/Pakistan

    They did win the 4th Test to be fair. I'm pretty sure that Misbah's 15 runs in the match weren't the key reason for that though...

    Misbah now averages 35 outside UAE/Pakistan

    You are aware that 2-2 is commonly considered to be a draw right? Also, it kind of defeats the point you're labouring to try and bag out Steve Smith about 3rd and 4th innings runs when he didn't score a run in either team second innings in the games they won in that series.

    *Official* Bangladesh in New Zealand 2016/2017

    So how would you know then, seeing as you do anything but support the NZ team.

    The ATG Teams General arguing/discussing thread

    Off the top of my head, almost all of those bowlers played county cricket back in that era. Their problem was that they just weren't good enough at the higher level.

    The ATG Teams General arguing/discussing thread

    Funnily enough, some people were saying the same thing without hindsight, as in when it was actually happening.

    The ATG Teams General arguing/discussing thread

    Where's 24 come from? The trade off was 5 runs. Stewart would've scored a lot more then 5 more per innings without the gloves I have absolutely no doubt. In fact I'd back him to have scored more then any other batsman we had and been a 45 averaging opener, which was far better then anything...

    Boxing thread

    As with all of LTM's posts, I don't think he could be more wrong if he tried, unless NZ has recently moved to the complete opposite side of the world?

    The ATG Teams General arguing/discussing thread

    Your use of him being an old man as an excuse would be good if he didn't actually perform better then that at any point before. When they were in direct competition, the averages were almost identical, but the gap in keeping ability was vast. It is total bullshit to look at overall averages...

    Oh yes, those world beating spinners that SA and Australia have make them such a force on the subcontinent

    ***Official*** Sri Lanka in South Africa 2016/2017

    At home they'd beat any current Test side except India I reckon.
