    Aminul Islam v. Gary Wilson

    Two stalwarts of their nations' rise from cricketing backwaters to test status. Both featured heavily in the dog days of slogging through World Cup Qualifiers and earning ODI status. Both lived to walk onto the field in their team's test debut and retire soon after. Both will likely be...

    Ricky Ponting versus himself

    Because I have deemed it necessary to take this idea to its conclusion. Let us presume that prime Ricky Ponting was facing the medium-pacer trundling of Ricky Ponting, with 10 other Ricky Pontings in the field (including a Ricky Ponting wicketkeeper), and Ricky Ponting set fields. How long would...

    Resurrecting the Intercontinental Cup

    Because not all test nations are in the WTC, and because more context is better than none, and because even non full members have pockets of snob cricket fans I propose the following. - The Intercontinental Cup be brought back with a format similar to the World Cup Qualifying pyramid leagues as...

    Charl Langevelt: Exactly how good was he?

    He had a decent purple patch in the mid noughties, would probably have had more than 6 test matches were transformation targets not such a sensitive hot button issue. Possibly one of the more effective death bowlers of his day. Where do you rate him.

    Are Australia the supervillains of Test cricket?

    It seems that, by virtue of being on the receiving end of so many test match series for the ages, that this might be the case. What do you think?

    Matt Prior vs. Joseph Buttler

    1. Auto correct won't let me type Jos 2. Both earned the test gloves on the back of figuring out how to stay in the XI, with runs, while figuring out the keeping later 3. Both selected ahead of superior glovemen 4. This may all be Adam Gilchrist's fault

    So, Lungi Ngidi has recently called for the Proteas to express support for BLM and then Boeta Dippenaar, together with several other former Proteas responded saying All Lives Matter. Now there seems to be a growing split between white and non-white Proteas on the issue with lots of Black and...

    Perverse Delight thread

    This thread is all, or mostly about the schadenfreude we should come clean on feeling when some sports team gets a terrible result. For instance, as much as I respect Pep Guardiola and Sir Alex Ferguson as coaching geniuses, there is something strangely satisfying about those Champions League...

    Your gutsy calls for 2020

    Aside from the hindsight and foresight puns this 12 upcoming months will choke us on, what are willing to go out on a limb predicting? I reckon Zimbabwe will be stripped of test status Afghanistan will win more test matches than Sri Lanka Cricket Kenya will be dissolved Root to score more test...

    Football stuff that doesn't deserve its own thread

    Watching Kenya's home AfCON qualifier against Togo on our beloved exists for the sake of it national broadcaster. Having been absent for the entirety of the 1st half he has variously called the opposition Ghana, Senegal and Ivory Coast.

    Mayank Agarwal vs. Adam Voges

    Obligatory comparison thread based on their disproportionately high test batting average from a really small sample size. They are obviously not waste men but who's average flatters theme least?
