    England conquering in Australia and India,What was More impressive series win?

    Straight forward question. The win in Australia was pretty comprehensive 3-1 and some of the beatings were fierce, but for me after Pujara batted them to death in the first test England coming back was more impressive. Doubt India or Australia fans would say that their sides were up to much...

    Failure of the series

    Really tough one this. Its Warner though surely?

    Sky Sports "Cricket"

    Its just not very good is it? Not bothering with associates is poor enough, but when charging so much for the service, its very poor that they have none of the Pakistan or the India series at the moment.

    The most hopeless batting line ups to visit England since 2010

    India getting smashed as I type, but while a lot of inept batting on show,at least Kohli has elevated it somewhat. So my suggestions, India batting line up in 2011 which was Dravid and passengers and Pakistan in 2010. To refresh people's memory the batting line up they lined up with :laugh...

    Best/Worst moments of pettiness so far.

    Pepe would have been strong fav to win this, but early exit means he wont feature as prominently as he would like, however his dive v Morocco was top notch. I'l nominate Otamendi for the below v Croatia. He did the same Yesterday also:laugh: Shout to Panama also who were a pretty unpleasant...

    Indian Oversea test watch, how will they do?

    So 3 test series for India outside the SC, 3 tests in South Africa, 5 in England in the summer,and 4 in Australia at the end of the year. Indian side on paper looks as strong as it has been for a long time and all the nations they touring aren't as formidable as they may have been in the...

    ***Official*** Pakistan in New Zealand 2016/17

    So 2 weeks away and what could be a cracking little series. New Zealand will start favourites, but Pakistan have been very consistent and have little to fear from a side which is on a poor run in the red ball format. Pakistan have named their test squad Sharjeel Khan picked in Pakistan's Test...

    Phil Simmons no longer in charge of the West Indies

    Phil Simmons suspended as West Indies coach | Cricket | ESPN Cricinfo What a shower of clowns this lot are, best of luck getting anybody somewhat established to manage you again. The t20 mercenaries are probably better off away from this diasterpiece of a cricketing nation. :-O

    Lyth 2015 v Bailey 2013

    Who has been more crucial in their respective nations reclaiming the Ashes?:-O Aussies, Bailey took some good catches did he last time ? He also slogged Anderson for a few overs. Lyth erm, well he hung around a bit at Cardiff.

    Best international players against spin under 30 these days

    Its Kaneh isn't it? Huge innings in pretty much every sc country and also has done well in the West Indies a country where you won't do well these days if you can't do it against spin. Obviously rate the likes of Smith and Root quite highly, the latter who will be absolutely crucial when...

    The Nick Compton Debate

    A player from all accounts according to Dobell pretty much blacklisted from England selection. Lets review his very brief international career. Series 1 Good solid effort in India where many non Asian players have constantly failed especially in their first time in the SC. Series 2 Away to...

    Mohammad Hafeez - His test future.

    Mohammad Hafeez yet again has been called for pelting,so once again his value to the test team has came up for debate. I am somewhat torn on the fella, he has averaged over 50 in the last 2 years with the bat and has averaged something like 70 in the last 12 months. He got a double against...

    So this rebel cricket breakaway league...

    Some talk about this in the media recently, the Guardian in the UK have been keeping an eye on it. Its interesting to see what happens here, I can't imagine the likes of Warner, and guys from the big three who are loaded been hugely keen to jump ship, but their would definitely be many other...

    Images of the World Cup.

    Straightforward thread, best images of the world cup. I have gone with the obvious ones. Will add more later.. Add more guys.

    Moving forward what type of side should England pick in ODI cricket?

    So think its safe to say a wretched effort from England, they moved the Ashes for this which they lost 5-0 and the last six months was non stop ODI preparation. Openers Bell isn't a spud at all, but surely enough is enough? He so often gets in and never finishes anything, and I don't see it...

    Who should bat at Seven for South Africa?

    Amla-De Kock- Faf- Ab-JP Whether people disagree or not that will be the top five for South Africa. Tahir, Steyn, Morkel pretty much nailed on to be the 4 front line bowlers. That leaves 6 and 7. Miller is probably in pole position for six, but its possible that Roussow after his West Indies...

    Pakistan Thread

    Nobody else has so may as well start this thread. :D The Alam exclusion is a shame, but expected. Younis Khan proved he was no better than the likes of Malik and the rest by crying and got his place back. Ideally he should have been binned by the selectors or retired after the last world...
