    New Cricket Trivia - 'SJS format'

    All three are correct :) However, if I am allowed, I had meant to add a min of 5 Tests and no Bradman. Had not had chance to edit :) Jackson counts as one if I am allowed the edit.

    New Cricket Trivia - 'SJS format'

    I thought of this question without thinking of Phil Hughes - he didnt occur to me until I had researched the answer. He wasnt the point of this question and I hope no one takes offense. Hughes will not be included as an answer to this question. Name three players who died at an age below their...

    I forgot the rules. Am I supposed to set now? If so will do after I get back from a run

    Price or Herath? EDIT - Saw the above and an alternative nomination instead of Price would be Younis Khan

    *** Official *** West Indies in South Africa 2014/15

    Trying to catch up with cricket after not watching a lot non-England related for the past couple of years. I watched the WI innings of the T20. A few thoughts below. - The Gayle innings was clearly influential, the difference between the teams and very special but it held little entertainment...

    ***Official*** India in Australia 2014-5

    Just an observation, a ball turns ridiculously square and the deviation is measured at 13 degrees yet a straight' arm and legal delivery is set at 15

    ***Official*** India in Australia 2014-5

    Some of the better Australian commentary I have listened to for a while - though that isnt saying much. However, I know the Burns catch wasnt difficult but they are crucifying him. Nothing is easy at short leg.

    cricrate: new cricket ratings website

    Like EWS, I also dabble in this type of stuff and I think it is a really interesting and fun endeavour. However, I do think that I have concluded that it is a thought exercise and all efforts are flawed (though some more flawed than others.) The danger, of course, is to tweak the methodology to...

    All-time Great XI - Voting system

    Unclear of the balance for the SA side as picking Eddie Barlow would be a very capable 5th bowler yet he isnt listed as an allrounder and the team could easily be carrying 6 bowlers in this format.

    Upcoming Cricket Career RPG game for iOS/Android

    Interesting concept and I love the name. Looking forward to seeing how it turns out.

    Are tons really that impressive in this era?

    Fair point. I agree.

    Are tons really that impressive in this era?

    Ha! I just did the same thing without reading the thread first :) Most hundreds per test since the 40s (40% increase on the 1990s), current highest overall batting average since the 40s and the most runs per match in history (possibly due to quicker scoring rates)...

    *Official* Pro-Wrestling Thread II

    It is ridiculous that you question the figures because it doesnt fit your preconception. And yes, it is the 41 year old men buying the Cena merch. Not for themselves but for kids who have a passing interest in wrestling. My kids have a lot of merch and they like wrestling but you cant get them...

    *Official* Pro-Wrestling Thread II

    Unless you mean that Cena is aimed at the older crowd then the idea that people watching WWE now is different is a myth The average viewer (for the three shows) is 41.4 years old. The report indicates that viewership is getting older instead of younger. The viewership for three shows is less...

    ***Official English Domestic Off Season 2014-2015***

    Decent looking team. Just a shame about the age of the seamers.

    Hafeez fails unofficial bowling test

    He doesnt have the worst action I have ever seen but the only real solution is for the boards to get heavily fined each time a player they select is reported and found to to have an action which isnt compliant. It isnt just the fault of the player but also of those who selected him. I would...

    Top Five Most Underrated Cricketers Ever.

    No, of course not. Plenty of seamers have been successful bowling at or around 70mph. It is only since the speed of every ball is flashed up that we have lost the real Medium-Fast bowlers. You are out of your mind if you think Sobers is bowling in the 130s in the clip you posted - everything...
