    Where does Imran Khan rank?

    Seriously. The snarkiness is abhorrent here lately. I don’t think Lillee was better than McGrath, but it’s not that outlandish to hold that opinion, at all.

    Why Do ATG XI's Have More Pacers Than Specialist Spin Bowlers?

    Revising earlier XI Hobbs Hutton Bradman Richards Miller Sobers Gilchrist Hadlee Marshall Warne Murali Ideal combo imo. Miller is a genuine quick who can be used in his preferred short bursts with two elite spinners. 5 bowlers plus Sobers. Hadlee or Imran at 7 is personal choice, Hadlee a...

    Is Marsh good in the slips? I think he’s pretty decent in the gully.

    Mitch Marsh test career

    He’s an absolute lock in the shorter formats. I’m a big fan. I don’t see any harm in him playing tests if it’s on merit. Wouldn’t actually hurt Green to spend a few games batting at 3 or 4 for WA. Green has a long future barring injury. But he needs to work on his batting tempo. I also think...

    The ATG Teams General arguing/discussing thread

    I think it’s worth considering a bowling attack if selecting an XI. Even if you don’t think Wasim is outright top 3, his ability to do things with an older ball that others can’t in a real match scenario would be really vital. With him also being a left handed and good enough bat, he’s a must...

    Internationals in domestic cricket

    Neser made 170 in a recent County game. England seems to have a lot of non English players in their domestic comp. Australian states used to do this but don’t seem to any more. Does CA not allow it nowadays? Is it beneficial or not to a country’s test interests?
