International Coach
Congratulations to the following:
Did not receive the milestones this week, so we will double up next week
Thanks to Pasag who is filling in for Alternative.
A very good week of debating on most threads this week, which was good to see. We are also introducing a new award this week for the best prediction. For obvious reasons this award may not be awarded to a prediction made in the same week as the awards (have I just won the Inzi for next week?)
Still looking for another member to join the team

Best of The Best
Shahid Afridi Award for (Best post of the week) Like an innings by the great man, it does not have to be very long, to be great viewing. And the Winner is: FaaipDeOiad for this click here No wonder he is beating me in the battle of the CC posters
Shane Warne Award for (Best thread of the week) Like his bowling it must be interesting but just like his private life it can also be controversial. And the Winner is Langeveldt for this click here , created some good discussion (I picked the winner this week)
The Skull Award (Funniest poster for the week) Just like the king of the one liner Kerry O’Keefe, can also be serious. And the Winner is: silentstriker click here there is a good comeback here somewhere
The Sobers Award (Most varied poster of the week) The true all-rounder of CW you must be able to contribute to a number of threads. And the Winner is: Fiery , has been around awhile, but seems much more active of late
Tony Greig Award (Worst prediction of the week) Will he ever live down that ‘We will make them grovel’ prediction re- the West Indies? And the Winner is: GeraintIsMyHero for this click here at least wait until he gets there
Inzamam Award (Vaguest poster of the week) We are not sure what he is talking about, but we hope he knows. And the Winner is: silentstriker for this click here I am not sure if this is vague, wrong or if fact right but completely meaningless. So it must be an Inzi
The Sir Geoffrey Award (Most knowledgeable poster of the week) We were going to call this the Richie Benaud award, but after speaking to Boycs, he assured us he new twice as much as Richie. And the Winner is: Mr Mxyzptlk , very impressive week of posting, has made some very impressive points
The Bradman Award (Overall CW poster of the week) Simply the best no matter what the debate or criteria. And the Winner is: No award this week
Agarkar/Mohammed award for ('At least their trying' award)
just like the players this award is named after, they may not be quite good enough for any other award, but at least we remember them. And the Winner is: pup11 for this click here Txt speak: r u ok 2 e-joy tis?
The Mike Hussey award for best newcomer (less then 500 posts), not too many have had a great debut and continued success like “Mr Cricket” And the Winner is:
pup11 Two awards this week, (still I want to correct most of his spelling) well done
The Gatting V Rana award for the best debate of the week, and the winners are: Too many to mention for this click here many members involved in the debate, really enjoyable stuff
Saj Award for best rant of the week (following Saj's outburst after the 3rd Test, and no Saj, we don't know what you were doing out there either, it's a sad indictment on the quality of our reserves: And the Winner is: LA ICE-E for this click here He slowly builds up to his rant, a controlled ‘Saj’ if you will
Marsh/Lillee Award (Best prediction of the week) they took 500/1 against England winning after following-on, and won, um lost. And the Winner is: Slow Love for this click here The only one who was not writing them off at the time, good call
Please remember, these awards are not officially endorsed by CW management
