    Should Ricky Ponting cop a ban?

    He deserved a suspension for that outburst but then again it's probably a bigger punishment for the side to not suspend him. I'll bet the Barmy Army will give him a nice reception when he walks out to bat in the second dig.

    England Selection Appreciation Thread

    I'm 'ere and ready for my punishment! :wacko: Well I was right about Bopara. At least give me that. Full credit to Broad for not only lifting his game, but for single handedly wrenching the ashes from our grasp in one devastating spell of bowling. It brought back memories of Simon Jones and...

    *Official* Fifth Test at The Oval

    I disagree with you about the batting being the problem. England have only had 1 catastrophic batting failure in the series to date, in the first innings at Headingley. We hear about the 7 vs 1 centuries but that is more due to England's bowlers running out of ideas and bowling poorly. The...

    *Official* Fifth Test at The Oval

    Surely Bopara won't keep his spot for the final test. He has been found out as bad as Yuvraj "unless it's Pakistan, I won't try" Singh was against us a few years ago. His body language and the limp shots he has got out on, show that even he knows he is dead man walking. Your number 3 should be...

    *Official* Fourth Test at Headingley

    Some good bowling by England there to get Watson and Ponting out LBW. Give credit where due. Just bowl it in the right areas and you will have success. It's not rocket science and you don't need freakish swing. Accuracy is by far the most important ingredient of a successful test bowler...

    England Selection Appreciation Thread

    Thank you England, for allowing us to retain the ashes. We were hoping that Ravi Flopara, the biggest dud to ever play no 3 in the ashes, would be retained for this test. Maybe Glenn McGrath could give him some batting advice. Thank you also for selecting "can't bowl, can't bat" Stuart Broad...

    The English Crowd

    By making a big deal out of this, won't it just egg the crowd on to boo Ricky even harder in the next test?

    Who are the most underated and overated players

    Overrated - Marcus Trescothick: he only makes runs against weak teams like Zimbabwe and Bangladesh... - The whole Indian cricket team: they were flogged in every away series prior to the Australian tour... Underrated - Darren Lehmann: he has a massive amount of 1st class runs...
