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

    He got more runs then Ballane or Duckett would've done.

    Wastemen etc

    I've never got the Lyon hate myself. Always comes across as a good solid and reliable bowler. For me he's clearly the best spin bowler from any non-Asian nation.

    You mean prefer to discuss cricket in a civil way without having a ****ing moron drag every thread into a troll fest?

    best team in world cricket right now

    Their string of wins was a whole 2 series, which doesn't really count as a string in my book. In terms of recent, they've barely played away from home so you can't make any claims on that front either.

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

    Although Duckett clearly needs to be left out, I do wonder if we missed a trick in the second innings of the first Test by promoting Stokes over him. May not have worked but if he'd been given licence to go out and score a quick 30 or so, it might've changed his outlook going into the second Test?

    Abolish the DRS

    However, when an umpire gives it out it is because he, from his (superior to the TV camera) vantage point with his (superior to Joe Public) experience of both the present pitch and Cricket around the world, doesn't have any doubt in the decision. What you think about doubt from watching it on...

    I'd be interested to find out what your definitions of string and recent are because the 2 are not compatible in that sentence.

    best team in world cricket right now

    Even allowing for injuries, I'd say bringing in 2 new openers, a new keeper, a new middle order batsman and a new fast bowler and spinner to be far from remaining the same to a considerable degree.

    Ramnaresh Sarwan v Simon Katich v Paul Collingwood vs Ashwell Prince

    So he did - funny how the memory of him always feels like he was a number 6 yet in reality he mostly came in at 5. I'm blaming old age.

    Ramnaresh Sarwan v Simon Katich v Paul Collingwood vs Ashwell Prince

    In a world when we're seriously contemplating Buttler at 4, Collingwood would be a walk-up start in that position. In reality he'd probably be better suited to 5 or 6 so you'd move Moeen to 4 so that he can continue his quest to bat at every spot in the line-up, but he wouldn't disgrace himself...

    Which would mean they send every decision upstairs and waste a lot more time.

    cricrate: new cricket ratings website

    Talking about both if one poor game from someone who's been dominating for ages means they slip off 1st place for someone who hasn't been anywhere near as dominant over even the last 6 months.

    ***Official*** Australia in South Africa + South Africa in Australia 2016/17

    The only person changing the goal posts is you as it was literally said that only SA have been caught on camera doing it within the last few years which you denied and when pressed for proof have only shown things from 20 years ago.

    ***Official*** Australia in South Africa + South Africa in Australia 2016/17

    Oh yes, so when you mention others have been caught in the last few years, you were referring to 20-odd years ago. That's a bit of a difference and completely irrelevant to what you were claiming but why am I not surprised?
