    Ashes Trivia

    I do not understand what "18.4x5 overs" or "22.4x5 overs" are. Could anyone explain these numbers?

    Ashes Trivia

    What is the shortest innings? Or what is the smallest number of runs in an innings? And I do not understand why England declared in the 1st innings. 4th Investec Test: England v Australia at Nottingham, Aug 6-8, 2015 | Cricket Scorecard | ESPN Cricinfo There was plenty of time to play, and only...

    Ashes Trivia

    Lokomotiv's Proposed Changes to Cricket

    Tactic of giving intentional walks is not new in American Baseball, so it is very unlikely that this tactic is a reason of decline of American Baseball.

    No, I simply wanted to inform the existence of softer balls which do not require protectors.

    Lokomotiv's Proposed Changes to Cricket

    Please post new thread about "Cricket in North America". In North America, the popularity and number of young players of American Baseball is rapidly declining. The attempt of "US Pro Cricket" in 2004 failed, but there is potential for Cricket in North America. The popularity of American...

    Lokomotiv's Proposed Changes to Cricket

    Shorter innings for fielding first side could be a good idea. However, 10% deduction is too much.

    Lokomotiv's Proposed Changes to Cricket

    Statistics shows that the fielding first side has advantage in the limited-over games. So, is mathematical adjustment of runs of the batting first side necessary? (Something like D/L method)

    Lokomotiv's Proposed Changes to Cricket

    By the way, is the major incentive for Welsh players to be in England's national team The Ashes? Then, if The Ashes are played by British-Irish Lions or likes, then Wales would have their own national team?

    Why red/yellow ties? Are they Galatasaray supporters?

    Lokomotiv's Proposed Changes to Cricket

    Maybe 2 increase (1 of 2 is a second Wicket-Keeper--like Kilikiti). The number of squad should be 16. 13 of whom field and 11 of whom bat.

    Lokomotiv's Proposed Changes to Cricket

    The Ashes should be played by Lashings, (Rugby Union-style) Barbarians, British-Irish Lions, Australasian Dolphins (or Whales), etc. And I am still interested in the fact that there are 2 Wicket-Keepers in Kilikiti. ICC should consider increase of the number of fielding players in order to make...

    In the limited-over games, the fielding first side has advantage. Right?

    Lokomotiv's Proposed Changes to Cricket

    Changing the size of cricket grounds means 2 cases--enlarging or narrowing. Enlarging is sometimes impossible, but narrowing is always possible. As far as I remember, the ICC's minimum standard for WCL was enlarged in 2007, right? The minimum standard must be narrowed for having same size...

    Lokomotiv's Proposed Changes to Cricket

    Cricket field size must be same and smaller I do not think that field size of Test Cricket should be same; because there is no World Cup or World Championship in Test Cricket. So Test Cricket should be more entertaining than competitive. But I think that Cricket field size of WCL, World Cup or...
