Some staff members are nothing if not predictable, and as soon as we heard that Martin had been revisiting his childhood haunts it was obvious what sort of feature would follow.
FEATURES
In the wake of the success of enoyed by Australia’s Big Bash CricketWeb’s Cameron Burge asks the inevitable question.
Following up on Martin’s piece on Frank Tyson, Dave looks at Tyson’s astonishing second innings performance and asks if he was truly unique in this regard.
Yorkshiremen in the 1930s believed, not without cause, that Don Bradman was Bill Bowes’ bunny. In this feature Martin takes a look at the life and times of a man who was more than just a quick bowler.
Bradman’s Invincibles are rightly lauded as the strongest team ever to tour England. Did they however represent the very best Australia had to offer? In this feature Martin explains why he thinks not.
Great fast bowlers are born and not made. Englishman John Snow was one of the best and, argues Martin, deserves to be much more fondly remembered than he is.
It was disaster downunder for India and there was a sense of resurgence and purpose in the Australian campaign. CW’s Angi.C and Ganesh Venkat rate the two sides.
Pakistan’s cricket is on the rise again. In this feature Martin tells the story of the Mohammad family, who played a crucial role in the nation’s cricketing development for 25 years.
Dave Wilson proposes a new way to look at domestic performance, focussing on the English County Championship during various eras.
After England’s double batting failure in Dubai there will doubtless be some who will champion the cause of Jonny Bairstow. In this feature Martin remembers his father, a cult hero if ever there was one.
