    Imran Khan vs Allan Donald

    Tough one. I'd go for Donald. Fantastic quick bowler. The reasons above. A lot of kids wanted to be like Donald. Just like Imran, Donald had great respect. A shame what happened wasn't even his fault in the 99 WC semi final.

    Kallis’s bowling vs Imran’s batting

    Definitely Imran. He could make it into the team as a specialist batsman alone.

    All-Time SA ODI XI

    I forgot him. Justin Kemp too was a good all rounder. I remember his innings against India where SA was in real trouble with many wickets down. He got them to a very good score from nowhere. SA really did have a good team between 2003-2007.

    All-Time SA ODI XI

    Hence my selection of Kallis. I feel he has to be there to anchor the team, be the one who hold things together when the team is in a crises. A good pace bowler too.

    Which is the greatest country ATG ODI XI?

    Pak was a major force in the 80s, 90s. Certainly in the 90s they could've won all three world cups. Should've done better in the 96 world cup with the team they had. It would've been an interesting semi final Pak Vs Sri l. 1987 too Pak was expected to make the final however Australia just had...

    Semi Serious Ideas to Re-Invigorate Test Cricket

    Maybe field 12 players or a super sub. To swap a batsman for a bowler. I'm sure around 2006 this idea came into practice in odis for a short while. You always want one extra in the slip or in the covers.

    Which is the greatest country ATG ODI XI?

    I feel Tillakaratne should be swapped for perera, Matthews or another dynamic batsman or an all rounder. De Silva is a waste at 5, he is a stroke maker, dynamic batsman suited to bat higher up and best utilise his skills. Ranatunga at 6 is suited at number 5 who can hold the innings together.

    Fred Trueman vs Allan Donald

    Donald, frightening, raw pace, the aura. great record.

    Which is the greatest country ATG ODI XI?

    I still think Arnold should be swapped. Pak was a great odi team for a long team in the 80s, 90s, early 00s.

    Does anyone know

    I'm interested in England's resurgence after their dismal 2015 cwc campaign. Four years later in the most dramatic way ever possible, they won the world cup at lords. I know Eoin Morgan stayed as captain, they changed coaches. Does anyone know what they did, changes, what processes to improve...
