    A question about IPL for non-India, non-India based fans

    Good to know. So if one were to base this thread, 1 in 12 non-Indian cricket fan has a strong relationship with an IPL team. I do think its far less, but then there is a cultural thing too. I don't think the shameless commercialisation of the sport goes well with non-Indian fans.

    A question about IPL for non-India, non-India based fans

    This is a question for those who are not Indians, not based in India or expats. IPL is very popular in India, and teams have wild fanbases. However, I wanted to explore what the situation is outside of India. Do fans or cricket watchers outside of India identify strongly enough with any of the...

    An article about DRS - The Hidden Fine Print of Hawk Eye

    Yeah another Einstein. More accurate based on the evidence and data from the very thing that has an error margin in it, which makes all 'more accurate' stat as useful and correct as actual bat****. If you don't get that then you are more actually bat**** crazy and stupid. On top of that you want...

    An article about DRS - The Hidden Fine Print of Hawk Eye

    The point of the article is not that because no ball can't be reviewed DRS will not be used by BCCI. When is that even the point? And yes, thank you for stating the obvious, BCCI want the tech to be accurate before they use it. Thats the whole point of the 40 cm inaccuracy being hidden from the...

    Oh okay, didn't know that ... the thing is I am used to running into Tendulkar haters on the interenet, and it felt like this is where they all hung out :D Thx.

    ICC to review 2014 changes

    First of all Big three was a terrible idea, and well done Manohar for having gotten rid of it. Cricket can only work if all members are equal, and in the big three that was definitely not happening. Hopefully they can now find some structure in the FTP, and make the test rankings fairer, and...

    A method to determine the world's best batsman across all formats

    Shows how thick you are. Take a negative n letter word and replace the first n letters of the name of the person you don't like with this n letter word and viola !! Doesnt take a lot of thought (something you people specialise in) to come up with something like that..

    A method to determine the world's best batsman across all formats

    I agree, now if something as specific as hitting a specific bowler for a six on the smallest ground in the world with school boy boundaries actually meant anything.

    A method to determine the world's best batsman across all formats

    Yes that would be so true if Sachin had never scored any runs on any ground apart from Eden park. So close, but facts again get in the way of your opinion.

    That Sachin was no Grant Elliot is a distinction that cannot be started hard enough :D

    A method to determine the world's best batsman across all formats

    I see that I will be meeting a lot of people like you here ... I will enjoy ripping you lot apart. So are you going to just rant or are you actually going to deny any of what I wrote earlier about Sachin being MoTM in 3 of the 5 biggest cricketing matches ever !! What can you possibly say, that...

    A method to determine the world's best batsman across all formats

    Should I then assume you were on Mars or something during the 2003 WC and have only just returned. Also what are you talking about, big matches. Matches don't get bigger than India vs Pakistan in a world cup. Sachin played in 5 of those ('92, '96, '99, '03 and '11) and not only won all 5 of...

    Don;t know who that is ... but I have a feeling he disagrees with me, very strongly so in-fact.

    A method to determine the world's best batsman across all formats

    See this is the problem, there is no one guy who definitely owns that mantle. Well there is Don Bradman sure, and by and large no one really nitpicks around his record, and he is most widely accepted as the greatest. But if you talk of recent times, then there is no one definitive greatest...

    A method to determine the world's best batsman across all formats

    Thx for the word, but honestly that meant nothing to me. I don't know who suicide bob champion is or was and I honestly I couldn't care less. The worst they can do is ban me. Plenty of other forums out there. However I felt it a duty almost as a human being, to tell that loser to stop counting...
