    Stuart Broad

    Still pretty mystified by Broad's success. He still doesn't move the ball much, he still gets disappointingly little bounce given his height, and he still isn't very quick. Nor does he have metronomic accuracy. I've always ranted about how he needed to pitch the ball up, and at least he now...

    Rank the 500 Club

    I sometimes wonder whether the world's shortest giant is taller than the world's tallest dwarf and if so, by how much.

    Hello mate. I hope you're well. I'm doing some witness familiarisation training which involves mock cross-examination of a witness on a subject they're passionate about. He's chosen Aussie rules football. Got any thoughts on interesting angles of attack? People doing this training will often...

    What are the best ODI innings ever?

    Not sure I'd go for that. 1984 - Willis (in his last summer) - Botham - Foster - Miller - Pringle 2011 - Anderson - Broad - Swann - Bresnan - Yardy/Collingwood I wouldn't say the 1984 attack was any better than 2011.

    Deep down you know that Smith is better than Border. And that thought excites you, yet makes you feel dirty.
