    Great lower order batting teams in history?

    Yeah, just think – if Kohli put the same amount of work in so to double his output he'd be better than Bradman!

    Yes I believe we're allowed to.

    Kallis Vs Ambrose

    lmao what an absolute troll of an article First, let’s look at his bowling. To me, Kallis’ bowling was of minimal value. For his entire career he was the fifth bowler. He was an excellent fifth bowler, but what was he adding? Were South Africa really better off giving Kallis 10 overs a day...

    All-time Australia XIs - A re-run

    D Jones 9 (6x at #5; 3x at #4) Cowper 4 (all at #3) Redpath 4 (2x at #3; 2x at #4) K Hughes 4 (all at #4) A Jackson 3 (all at #3) Lehmann 3 (all at #5) Hmm. That's not particularly conclusive. I'm opting for Cowper on the basis of FC record and bowling ability, but we'll have a runoff between...

    NZ domestic season 2023/24

    Pleasantly surprised to see Popli still there even after the gain of Robbie O'Donnell. Suppose it might be to do with the presumable loss of Seifert to franchise. No Pringle nor J Walker, and Z Gibson and Bocock are the other omissions.

    *Unofficial* New Zealand Black Caps Thread

    Looks like we're still playing an ODI tri-series in Pakistan with RSA before the CT – that softens the blow significantly IMO. But SL couldn't of course play a couple more ODIs against us so it doesn't end up in a 1–1 draw, nor could NZC lure in some side that isn't Pakistan to play in the...

    *Unofficial* New Zealand Black Caps Thread

    In fairness we were promised 9 tests a year, and naturally that would mean the constant of 4 home tests would be replaced by 5 when a Big 3 nation decided to insist on an extra test.

    Marshall Vs Sobers

    RSA were the 3rd best team in the inter-war period. Please don't perpetuate lies.

    *Official* West Indies Tour of England, JULY 9th to 25th, 2024-- 3 TEST MATCHES

    Damn even Ross Taylor could get a wicket in this sort of situation. This guy just isn't very good.
