    Who will top the charts in 2024?

    Who do we think will finish 2024 as the leading run scorer and wicket taker? I'm calling Joe Root as most runs and Jadeja as most wickets Edit: Talking about Tests, of course

    Frequency of upsets

    All the upsets happening at world cricket tournaments recently make me ask 2 questions. 1) Why is it happening when all logic dictates it shouldn't? How can the Netherlands, a side made up of retirees and club cricketers compete with full-strength South Africa let alone beat them? Even if they...

    Best Test Hatrick (last 30 years)

    Which was the highest quality Test hatrick, main factor (but not only) would be the quality of the batsmen dismissed IMO limited to last 30 years because I don't know anything but feel free to add your own @trundler

    Slowest West Indian fast bowler

    Has to be a specialist bowler, so no Dwayne Smith, Phil Simmons etc. Corey Collymore? Ian Bradshaw? Vasbert Drakes? Darren Sammy probably has a strong case if he counts as a bowler

    Kallis v Shane Watson

    Who was the better ODI cricketer? Test cricket is obviously Kallis, T20 obviously Watson

    Chris Cairns v Jacob Oram v Scott Styris

    Who was better? At cricket. We all know Styris would be better with the ladies

    Chaminda Vaas v Nathan Bracken

    Which one was a better ODI bowler? Tests clearly no comparison. Chaminda played a lot more ODIs but Bracken has a significantly tidier average. Similar type bowlers who bowled away swing with the new ball and used off cutters later in the innings to great effect I know who Migara & stephen...

    Mohammad Rizwan

    So this guy is clearly the best WK/Batsman in the world now right?

    If Jimmy Anderson started his career 5 years later, would he be higher regarded?

    If he started his career when he was older and better, slightly less longevity, but better career stats. Would his doubters be less numerous?

    What happened to the flipper?

    Shane Warne's signature trick ball in the 1990s, until he stopped bowling it reportedly due to shoulder issues. I'm sure plenty of others utilised and mastered the delivery before Warne came along but he definitely made it famous during his time. I feel like we very rarely see it bowled much...

    What to do about tour matches

    Pakistan just picked their 'A' Team for Australia's only match in UAE, and it does not include a single specialist spin bowler. A blatant tactic to rob the touring side of practice ahead of the Test series where they are expected to be facing a spin-heavy attack. Basically the same thing...

    *Official* Australia v England post-Ashes ODI series

    Not sure where to post this, but just announced the squad for Australia today with some surprised - Maxwell dropped (itstl) - Lynn selected (proved himself after 1 dodgy big bash innings and still being unable to field) - Paine recalled, Wade dropped - Stoinis and M.Marsh both selected

    KP Comeback

    Kevin Pietersen eyes South Africa T20 call Too bad he'd be 40 years old by the time he qualifies for SA, and probably never get selected anyway KP making an international comeback would be so awesome if it could happen right now You've got guys like Gary Ballance playing Test cricket while KP...

    Rashid Khan from Afghanistan

    Is this guy really as good as he seems to be? He has amazing stats and looks pretty good to say the least. Also does anyone really believe that this guy's 18? lol I'd be surprised if he was much younger than 30 Should be good interesting to see how he goes in Tests

    Virat Kohli average watch thread

    Test batting average officially over 50 and higher than Kane Williamson's

    Which current batsman would have been good in the old days, without modern bats etc?

    I think you could transplant Steve Smith 50 years ago with a plank of wood for a bat and he wouldn't lose much effectiveness. David Warner would be rubbish. Not talking about players growing up in that time and adapting etc etc but literally which current players would still be pretty good if...
