    XI's that play for your life

    OK, so hypothetically, you've got a match with your life on the line. Ideally, who are the XI blokes you'd want playing for you? Who would you trust to bat for long, long periods of time and keep their concentration. I'll have a bit more of a think about this and get back to you people...

    Tait changing his action?

    It was obvious that he was trying to adopt a more "conventional" bowling action in the Perth test. And it was even more obvious to me that he was trying to be more upright at delivery point, not his usual all over-the-shop self. This, to me is one of the disadvantages of over-coaching in our...

    Aussies - bring the swing in

    Seeing as though there is all this talk about Indian's swing kings, I say we drop Johnson, Tait, Lee and Clark for Bollinger, Bracken, Nannes and Hilfenhaus... Nah just kidding.... But what would your thoughts be on bringing in maybe Bollinger or Hilfenhaus for Johnson and/or Tait?

    India have the best batting line-up?

    The words of Anil Kumble after. Thoughts? Sehwag v Hayden Jaffer v Jaques Dravid v Ponting Tendulkar v Hussey Ganguly v Clarke Laxman v Symonds Dhoni v Gilchrist

    Hopes, Watson or White in Australian ODI side

    The way I see it, our best 12 includes 7 bats, 1 all-rounder (apart from Symonds) and 4 bowlers. All players are capable of doing well in this Australian side and with the upcoming tri-series I think this will be a difficult decision to face come selection time for the Aussie selectors. I...

    Ashley Noffke

    It seems to me that with Johnson and Tait the selectors have picked two bowlers whose future value to the side far outweighs the current return. They seem to have struggled with the basic art of consistency, and while I do not expect them to have the accuracy of Clark, they just seem to be...

    Luke Hodge playing in my old competition

    Just visited the website from my old league (before I joined the Victorian Premier League) and it surprised me to see Hawthorn star Luke Hodge in St.John's. Third paragraph, fourth line. http://ftgdca.cricketvictoria.com.au/cgi-bin/newsdisplay.cgi?rm=viewListing;plugin_data_id=69327;site_id=1477

    Any good sims?

    Hey everyone there was this game I played a year back and I think it was from the Swinburne Uni website, it was a test match simulator with players from the 1990's but you could create your own player (and adjust skills etc.) and I don't think it exists anymore. I think it was called Sim 1...

    Best way to turn a cricket ball

    I have just started bowling leg spin for my club after a few years bowling pace, and I'm having trouble turning the ball. My action is normal, similar to Shane Warne's and I follow all the tips like 'Put all your weight on your left leg while following through' and 'Spin the ball from 6o'clock...
