    Baseball V Cricket?

    Tbh, this poll is fairly ludicrous. Not only is the comparison done on a cricket website, but also, most posters fail to comprehend the nuances of baseball. As a fan of both, I believe both are easily different enough to be enjoyable in their own aspects. Anyone posting things like, "I'm really...

    Best english batsman ever

    Voted for Hutton, but he is always closely followed by Hobbs in my book. No Denis Compton?!?! Clear #4 for me after Hammond, although if you put Grace there I wouldn't argue.

    *Official* India in Sri Lanka 2010 - Tests

    Just when I was going to post about Raina displaying good temperament for Test cricket, he gets out with a rash shot. Excellent debut still. *Edit*: Nvm, he mistimed the shot.

    All-time Test XI with a twist

    Unfortunately, I didn't. I chose these players off footage, research, and I also believe the standard of cricket was most likely highest around that time. Although there was a single dominant force, most teams had strong attacks or at least one class bowler. If a player does well against hostile...

    Greatest Indian Bowler 1.1

    Note the article says best fast bowler India has ever produced. Voted Gupte, considering he's consensus among most experts as the best spin bowler India has ever produced (if not ever). Everything about him screams most talented Indian bowler ever. It's a shame he missed out on his prime (and...

    *Official* India in Bangladesh

    Not the first time Gambhir's nonchalant running has got him in trouble. Lucky there.

    *Official* India in Bangladesh

    Mishra in to atone for his sinful no balls. Would've rather seen Dravid to block out the rest of today's deliveries.

    *Official* India in Bangladesh

    He was dropped on 16 also: an edge to slip dropped after a diving effort, if my memory is accurate.

    Street cricket

    I went to India to visit relatives at the age of 8. I couldn't speak my native tongue, Gujarati, but all I had to do was pick up a bat to play a game of cricket. Unfortunately, I only remember playing a few deliveries because either the first or second delivery I played ended up being my last...
