Cricket stuff that doesn't deserve its own thread

Cricketer Of The Year
I recall a bowling coach (was it Ashley Mallett's?) having a string tied across the nets at a certain height and instructing slow bowlers to clear the string. I was never a batsman of note but I never felt comfortable when the ball was too much above my eye-line.

Shaheen Shah Afridi with another 5-wicket haul in T20s. 5 for 20...

Just under 2 weeks ago he took 6 for 19.
I remember Ryan Harris bursting onto the ODI scene with a couple of 5fers in a row. It always looks good when a bowler does that and I always thought that Afridi had some talent about him.

Shaheen has always had something about him... Like in the World Cup last where he took 6 wickets against Bangladesh.

Whatever it takes!!!
Shaheen maybe good for hauls in the LO format but I still think he has ways to go before he becomes a genuine consistent threat in tests.

That said, almost every IPL side would kill to have him in their squad right now. Especially with Starc not playing. I am seriously wondering if SRH should try talking to Starc and see if he is interested in playing for them as the replacement for Marsh. But I assume they already brought in a replacement?

England is weird. This is what happens when your most sensible citizens steal loaves of bread so they can get sent away to a much nicer land.

ECB really are a joke, requested to Sri Lanka to change the rule of 2 week quarantine for us for sake of our players mental health.
This after we kept west indies then pakistan players and staff locked in the stadium for nearly 2 month's only leaving to go to a different stadium.
Elitist mentality.
