    Indian Club Cricket

    Who knows their stuff on here when it comes to Indian club cricket? I’m trying to educate myself in this area but am still lacking some clarity in most aspects! For example, what kind of level is district ‘A’ division in India? Anyone help on this?

    Cricket Scouts Worldwide

    How prevalent is scouting in the current game at all levels of the sport ? Of course at the highest level countries employ a variety of scouts/advisers around the country in order to get a sense of their capabilities and compatibility and select accordingly. Think the ECB have about six employed...

    Where does all this leave club cricket ?

    It goes without saying that everything that has gone one in the last few months overshadows most things completely and that includes sport, However as a number of countries start to look towards re-integrating sport at a professional level (for cricket it’s likely to be international in the UK...

    Who represents New Zealand state cricketers ?

    Does anyone know of any player representation agency in New Zealand that would generally look after the state cricketers ? I understand there is an agent accreditation process with the NZCPA, however, of the six agents on there I don’t think there are many of them still operating in this area...

    Roy’s spot at the top should not be in doubt

    Jason Roy was always going to be under more scrutiny than most Test debutants due to his fantastic achievements with the One-Day side. Plenty of people (generally from countries other than England) were desperate for the chance to over-criticise should he not replicate a Steve Smith-style...

    South African Club Cricket

    Does anyone know the kind of standard of cricket that is played in the Bloemfontein Premier League or the Welkom Premier League ? My understanding is the Bloemfontein league is the slightly stronger league where it’s not uncommon to play against Knights players, but both are a decent level. If...

    Club cricket structures around the world

    I’m after a bit of help to understand the structures of club cricket in all countries around the world to try and understand exactly how they work. Obviously any advice would be helpful but the more detailed the better, if anyone has the time or inclination! I play cricket in one of the ECB...

    Before I go into any great debate regarding this tour, can anyone suggest a live stream for it?

    How will England approach Lyon ?

    How the England side look to play Nathan Lyon could be a key battle in how the Ashes are ultimately decided. Logic would dictate the England batsmen should look to be positive against Lyon, if they can hit Lyon out of the attack that puts pressure on the quicks to be brought back and with their...

    Cricket Exchange Agency advice

    Hi all, I'm after a little bit of guidance from anyone with any knowledge in this area. I'll just explain my plan a little first - So, I'm hoping to set up a player exchange agency, essentially offering overseas players the opportunity to come and play cricket in the UK, and also set UK player...

    Holder WI's new Test skipper

    West Indies have announced Jason Holder has now been installed as the Test captain following on from his appointment late last year as ODI skipper. It's a very brave move for me, a 23-year old inexperienced all-rounder leading the West Indies (or indeed any Test nation) is asking a hell of a...

    Overseas players in County Championship

    Was just reading an article about the drop off in quality in County cricket in England and how the quality of the overseas player was generally much higher due to the fact the international schedules were not as demanding and the T20 competitions that coincide with the English season, and reward...

    England's Batting Unit - What Now ?

    The fact this Ashes series is already over for England after just 14 days of cricket is not solely down to the poor collective performances of the batsmen but it has gone a long way to ending this series as a contest far too prematurely than it should have been. It would also be remiss to focus...

    England's concerns ahead of Adelaide

    Having just been completely outplayed at Brisbane and finding themselves 1-0 down, as ever, it isn't a time to panic and I certainly don't endorse a huge change in thinking or strategy but there are clearly things that need to change if we are to get ourselves back into this series. The main...

    England have announced that Paul Downton is the man to replace Hugh Morris as Managing Director of England taking over on February 1 2014 with Morris taking up a similar role at his beloved Glamorgan C.C.C. Another change to the ECB structure comes on the selection committee with James...

    Media stories round the world

    Just thought I'd start a thread looking at a couple of the media stories around the world. Apologies if there is already a thread for this. Firstly in The Age, Dean Jones suggests now is the time for Phil Hughes to come in and consolidate his position at number three in the Aussie line-up...

    South Africa's middle order holds the key

    Much has been talked about in the build-up to the England-South Africa series with regards both bowling attacks, but England's attack will be made to work very hard by the visitors quality middle order. Cricket Web - Features: South Africa's middle order holds the key

    Will Mohsin stay on as Pakistan coach ?

    His record currently matches up against any Pakistan coach of the past yet it seems inevitable that Dav Whatmore is to succeed Mohsin Khan as the Pakistan coach. Now I'm not going to pretend I have the first clue about the politics that surrounds cricket in Pakistan, but from the outside looking...

    Who has the outstanding 3,4 & 5 ?

    Despite talk of batting standards dropping, there are still some powerful top/middle orders around, so which three players would you prefer in your line-up from around the world ? England - Currently possess the most in-form three in Trott, Pietersen and Bell. A good mix imo, the solidity of...
