    ***Official*** New Zealand in Australia 2011

    I remember reading somewhere that Matthew Elliot and Steve Waugh had a bit of beef. I possibly could have read this on CW, can't remember though.

    *Official* Road to India in Australia 2011/12

    Comparing Praveen Kumar to Mohammad Sami? That's just taking direness to a whole new level. Praveen is a good bowler and he brings a lot to the table for India. There aren't many bowlers in international cricket who can swing the ball both ways at will like PK does. Not to mention his additional...

    Nathan Hauritz and Jason Krejza

    I've always believed that Jason Krejza is vastly overrated. He is commonly viewed as an attacking bowler, I don't really buy that at all. Attacking bowlers are meant to take wickets in first class cricket. Krejza has never taken a 5 wicket haul in a first class game for Tasmania, ever. He has...

    ***Official*** New Zealand in Australia 2011

    Khawaja scored a relatively quick 65 in the 2nd innings of this test match. - 2nd Test: South Africa v Australia at Johannesburg, Nov 17-21, 2011 | Cricket Scorecard | ESPN Cricinfo It was against a quality attack in testing conditions as well. He can do it.

    Australian Domestic Season 2011-12

    His name is Daya Singh and I'm pretty sure he is still only 16. A couple of my mates played against him in representative cricket a year or two ago. They told me that Singh was the fastest bowler they have ever faced. I also regularly speak to a bloke who plays 4th/5th grade for Sutherland and...

    David Warner

    I'm pretty sure Warner's 200 was against a 2nd XI Zimbabwe attack. Not a test quality attack, that's for sure.

    Starc getting wickets due to the batsmen playing aggressively to deliveries outside the off stump. Mitchell Johnson, anyone? :ph34r:

    Much improved 2nd spell from Pattinson there. Good pace and seam movement on display in the last few overs.

    ***Official*** New Zealand in Australia 2011

    What? Shane Watson bowls around the 130km/h mark in test matches and he has been our best bowler for the last 2 years. Watson certainly isn't a 'great' either, so it's pretty ridiculous to start ruling bowlers out who aren't the quickest. It's definitely not all about pace. Well, it is when...

    That article doesn't confirm anything though. Fingers still crossed that the selectors pick Copeland and not Starc.

    Australian Domestic Season 2011-12

    Haberfield was bowling around the 140Km/h mark at times tonight. He definitely has picked up some pace and strength, I can remember him only bowling at about the 130Km/h mark before his injury. He definitely needs to improve his outswinger though, like you mentioned.

    ***Official*** Australia in South Africa

    When is the test squad for the New Zealand test series going to be announced? I'm going to bed now. Hopefully I'll wake up to find out that Johnson and Haddin have miraculously chased the total down. I can always dream, I guess.

    ***Official*** Australia in South Africa

    I disagree. He looks quite the quality bowler for South Africa, have you seen his first class stats? Average medium-fast bowlers don't average 19 with the ball in first class cricket.

    ***Official*** Australia in South Africa

    Ponting's really picking up that short delivery early, evidenced by those two brilliant pull shots. I still definitely think that his current problem is mostly mental.

    ***Official*** Australia in South Africa

    Philander reminds me of a faster version of Mohammed Asif in a way. He bowls with a perfect seam position at all times.

    ****! I'm actually genuinely nervous for Ponting at the moment.

    I'm pretty sure Hughes has been dismissed that exact way in each of his 4 innings in this test series.

    Watson dismissed when premeditating a leave. Shocker..
