    ***Official - Sri Lanka in Bangladesh***

    Surprised to see this is not being telecast on any channel in India. :(

    ***Official*** Pakistan In Sri Lanka

    Sri Lanka may still tour Pakistan after their tour of Bangladesh, based on their discussion at the ACC general meeting coming up soon. The thread title suggests that Pakistan was supposed to tour Sri Lanka, and it is evidently cancelled? Can't find anything on Cricinfo suggesting that there's...

    ICC Player Rankings

    Hmm... I seem to remember Dhoni shooting to number one in the ODI rankings after a couple of good series'.

    Worst batsman ever to score a Test match 100

    He did start out as a batsman. Now he's neither. He's got a few good things going for him including the immense power he generates off the back-foot as well as how straight he plays. However, given his performance in international cricket (especially the infamous "Bombay Duck" tour) I think...

    What's in store for Cricket in 2009?

    The Mendis Clarification is the biggest for me. Let's see what he's made of when he plays a side other than an already shell-shocked Indian team.

    Best Moments Of 2008

    Also have to say that Dhoni taking over the captaincy in all forms of the game has been pretty huge. We are just 2-3 players away from having the same team play all forms of the game, which should only help build the team spirit.

    Best Moments Of 2008

    The comeback of The Monk and his subsequent forming of a solid opening partnership for India was the moment for me. I hope he just keeps his fitness levels up and continues to succeed next year. That apart, the year has been great for an Indian fan (and, I suppose, a non-Australia cricket...

    ***Official England in India***

    Unfortunately, cricket has always been about statistics... it was apparently just a myth to some that this did not stretch out to the players. With Indian players, statistics are even more important because your head can be on the chopping block before any given series unless you are in the...

    Worst batsman ever to score a Test match 100

    Hopefully my form is better than the man who the Michael Hussey award I won was named after. :D

    Pathetic Bowling actions

    I find Irfan Pathan's new action incredibly ugly. Not at all smooth and fluid like the one when he burst onto the scene before fame got to him. Mushy had a pretty unique action for a leggie with both arms going up and whatnot. Dinesh Mongia had one of the ugliest actions for a SLA bowler. It...

    Worst batsman ever to score a Test match 100

    Ajit "Bombay Duck" Agarkar

    ***Official*** India in England

    Maybe he loses concentration. He is hardly perfect.

    Future of fast bowling in India

    I seem to recall him getting a look-in in a few ODI games but that seems to just be a figment of my imagination. Maybe it was someone by a similar name to him who I'm thinking about. Gagandeep's high average may be because he played a lot of his career when we were in the zonal first class...

    ***Official*** India in England

    Rs. 28/- per month is the subscription for Star Cricket. That converts to around 75 cents per month, which is something that most people who own a TV can afford.

    ***Official*** India in England

    Let's hope our "pace bowlers" start "bowling", now.

    ***Official*** India in England

    Star's the money grabber for asking US$0.75 per month for a cricket channel?

    ***Official*** India in England

    I'm sure they're just taking some time to come to terms with the slope. Not that they are expected to perform well (the pace bowlers) but I expected them to perform slightly better than this.

    ***Official*** India in England

    Dada!

    ***Official*** India in England

    Star Cricket just brought up a stat of the last four 500+ scores (at Lord's I believe) scored by England and all matches ended in draws.
