Panauti In Uttar Pradesh
If you feel lady luck has never been on your side, then there’s actually a haven for you in Uttar Pradesh. The state has a village called Panauti in Karwi district. Housing around 341 families, Panauti might be your answer to finally finding your lucky charm or lucky abode

Hard to make any impact when you aren't selected.
Siddle should have never played that Oval test. I do have a bit more time for bananaman than most here, but that was a horrendous selection

I've long had a feeling that players can have a 'home advantage' in even seemingly unfavourable conditions. Like how non-Asian spinners do worse in Asia, or how Kapil was successful on the bare West Indian pitches that rather resembled his home pitches yet was bad in seemingly favourable England. The whole 'oh fast bowler x was so disadvantaged by home pitches in Asia' - well maybe if they'd learned their cricket on the overseas pitches, but otherwise not necessarily (especially funny when players have a worse away record).

Just to clarify my previous comment, I would probably not have picked Starc at the Oval, Patt0 was my preference. But certainly not Siddle, considering Mitch Marsh was coming into the team (he bowled bloody well that test fwiw) it looked pretty clear that someone with more firepower would be a better bet
Just a selection entirely devoid of any logic or reason

Yeah it's like "Let's bring in a guy who averages mid 20's with the bat because cummins is tired, but let's also bring in a workhorse bowler over a strike bowler, and ohh, while where at it let's ****ing bat second with a lineup that's failed all series bar 2 players while where an extra batsmen down." Who would have thought that would happen, huh?

No disagreement whatsoever on this one. It just didn't seem like there was any coherent line of thought behind any of the decision making

I don't think you could really call yourself a fast bowler in the 90s if you didn't hit a Kirsten in the head.

I feel like the decision to bowl first in that test is the kind of thing I'll still grumble about in a couple of decades' time. After what had happened there the previous time it was just incredible.

A better question is: what happened to Albion helmets in general? They were the brand when I started playing in 2010 (might even still have the Greg Chappell Cricket Centre catalogue with them) but not too many years later they've completely disappeared.

I still have mine from about 2012. They're still around I think?

Was just thinking of 2nd XIs and wondering who's got the best.
Australia's is actually surprisingly strong imo, got a bunch of washed up internationals who are at the very least close to if not test quality. Not sure where to start with NZ because I don't really know any of their backup players.
