Cricket stuff that doesn't deserve its own thread

Cricinfo seems to have **** itself again

I think that's just the mobile interface.

 

[GoodAreasShane]

Which is pretty terrible for me as I use mobile the vast majority of the time

Cricketarchive is so much better. Crincinfo has been trash for years

They replaced 1 Test with 5 T20s. 5 Tests, 3 ODIs and 10 T20Is would have been more balanced.

Nah there are some weird stuff going on with the statsguru too

The new profile page they've rolled out is pretty cool but buggy

Honestly it's sad to see how t20s have eaten into ODI cricket. ODIs are just so much better but sadly they're dying.

Yikes, yikes.

Just for completeness it's

2 Tests v SA, 3 ODIs v Aus, 2 Tests v Pak *and* 5 T20Is in each series. Yikes.

 

[Fuller Pilch]

That's very close to what NZ scheduled last summer.
3 T20s vs WI. (One was washed out)
2 tests vs WI.

3 T20s vs Pak.
2 tests vs Pak.

5 T20s vs Aus.

3 ODIs vs Bang.
3 T20s vs Bang.

Total
4 tests
14 T20s
3 ODIs

T20 as a format is best suited to league structure. A T20 world cup is alright but bilaterals are uninspiring. Keep them at a minimum and create scarcity value.

 

[RossTaylorsBox]

Keep them at a minimum and create scarcity value.

Good advice.

Keep them at a minimum and create scarcity value.

Should follow this advice with your posts

and your face

Umm... I'd suggest this dents his chances any further BBL appearances...

“There’s a difference between being rested and dropped and I feel as though I’ve had a career of being dropped and others have had a career of being rested and if I can finish my career with the games I miss being through being rested than dropped I’ll be a bit happier.”
