    Dilemma for England when KP returns?

    Nixon seems to be a very good keeper actually.. his batting, at 8, you'd want some more explosive batting than what i've seen with Nixon, who seems to be a nudging type batsman. At county level, he probably bats 6 or 7, and nudging singles is fine, but at 8 in a ODI, from a wicket keeper, you'd...

    Jacques Rudolph signs 3 year deal with Yorkshire

    ok seriously, i don't see anything special about White's bowling at all. Somehow, he seems to have got a reputation as an 'all rounder', and so then he gets to bowl a few overs. Michael Clarke isnt even considered an all rounder as such, and i'd rather bowl Clarke over White. I mean...

    Brad Hogg vs Cameron White

    Symonds i'm assuming won't play Hussey isnt a very...lets say safe option

    Brad Hogg vs Cameron White

    ^exactly^ plus some batsman love the ball coming onto the bat, and so love playing the quicker bowlers. They use the pace well etc. Using a spinner or medium pacer, means the batsman has to force the pace, and not everyone likes that as much. going in with the 5 seamers, means the only...

    Brad Hogg vs Cameron White

    Sorry, ok let's try this... I had Hodge in the team initially anyway. Gilchrist Hayden Ponting Clarke Hodge Hussey Watson Hogg Lee Bracken McGrath If Symonds does pull up well, Hodge should go for Symonds.

    Brad Hogg vs Cameron White

    They are all fast bowlers, with more than a 10 step run up each. So not just medium pacers etc. So yeh, with Brett Lee running in frm the sightscreen, Johnosno has a fairly large run up etc. It would take a large effort to keep the over rate acceptable. And apart from a 20/20 innings, White...

    Battle of the Worst Fieldsman

    Considering they are specialist slip fielders, they do a very good job. They dont' drop many, so they are good fielders. If i moved Gilchrist from his specialist position to say, cover...he'd struggle too. Everyone has certain positions they are good at Tendulkar is a very very good...

    Brad Hogg vs Cameron White

    First up, 5 seamers, would result in a very slow over rate. Aus have got away with it, because pup is in gd form with the ball, and symonds has done a tidy job. Really Ponting has had to put White in, when the situation is 'safe'. He picked up one or two wickets.. tail enders trying to slog...

    Battle of the Worst Fieldsman

    Dasgupta, Inzamam, Bevan?, Laxman, are far from poor fielders. Inzi may not be a good mover, but he's a very good slip fielder, as is Laxman. Michael Bevan was very very good, Dasgupta, though he had a bad series or two with the gloves, is far from a poor keeper nowadays... Laxman is a good...

    Brad Hogg vs Cameron White

    Ok fine, even if he's not competing for Hogg's spot, is nurturing a youngster now, such a good idea, so close to the world cup? Yes, in a year he may be very good, but i don't think he'll be ready come world cup time, to play a significant role. A more experienced campaigner would be a far...

    Batting ability...White hasn't played enough ODI cricket to judge his ability.

    Brad Hogg vs Cameron White

    Who played this number 7 hitter role in the past? I think if White were to get injured today, Hogg would come into the side for the next match. So i do believe they are competing for the same spot. Sure they play different roles, one is a batsman who can bowl a bit, the other a bowler who...

    Brad Hogg vs Cameron White

    Brag Hogg was brilliant in Australia's last world cup campaign, and I believe he is a VERY under rated bowler in world cricket. He took some vital wickets, as well as kept the runs down and consistently bowled 10 overs per match in the world cup. He was instrumental to their victories. He...

    he started off well, but fell away. Gambhir is still quite young, so definately deserves another chance

    Darrel Hair's ban , Justified or not ?

    Some would say it's in revenge of the agenda he's had against them :)

    Indoor Bodyline

    Indoor balls don't hurt anywhere near as much anyway Go the yorkers, far more effective imo

    south african captain

    Kallis already has enough on his plate imo. Smith is a moron. He wasn't even in the SA side properly when he was given the captaincy. He was very much an in and out player.

    Box or helmet?

    Using the bowling machine once, i got hit in the box. It broke the box, had an indent in it and the plastic was broke... If that wasn't there, i woudl most certainly have died... if not from the impact, from the pain. Helmet... it is protecting something very important obviously, but natural...
