    Runners should be banned - becoming rather farcical

    well high fever is different to dehydration. but even a high fever, if you are alert and physically able to face deliveries coming at well over 140kph, then you should be able to run as well... maybe your running will be hampered, but alas, can't have everythign your way

    Runners should be banned - becoming rather farcical

    also, i don't believe dehydration, muscle pulls etc. should be a reason for allowing a runner. The only reason is if say the batsman is struck by the ball, or soemthing external. If he pulls a muscle or is dehydrated, it's coz he's not fit enough and that's his problem.. he can retire hurt...

    Runners should be banned - becoming rather farcical

    runners arent a big problem IMO, they rarely come on so i wouldn't take too much into it.. One thing i have a problem is the 12th man. I believe the 12th man, should be picked by the OPPOSITION captain, from whoever is available on the playing squad that is not injured and not playing. Atm, we...

    Lehmann Dropped For Ashes

    his first ball reverse sweep against afridi in the vb series in a situation that did not demand such improvisation showed he has really lost the plot

    An agreed 6th day?

    i think this is a great idea, the game is predominantly a batsman's game today, and ppl are batting for longer and longer, it makes sense to extend the game a little. Timeless tests would show who the ultimate test team is but it's not practical. I think there should be one timeless test per...

    Move over Gillchrist....

    i'm indian, so in a way i'm being hypocritical, but this is the thing i HATE the most about ALOT (not all) indian supporters. One good innings, and they think that they're better than the rest of the world, who have been doing it for years. If the indian team beats australia once, they are...

    Top 10 ODI Innings of All time

    steve waugh's 120* in the wc game against South africa should be right up there at the top. single handedly won the game for aus in such a pressure situation. There is no bigger pressure situation, where your team HAS to win to remain in the competition, whilst you are the captain of the side...

    wide/no ball rule question

    i've been bowled of a delivery that bounced twice in a proper club cricket match. I couldn't believe it, as i always thought it was only allowed to bounce once. got out for 84.. they had thrown the ball to their opening batsman who was the most hackiest bowler ever!

    Dhoni as an opener in tests

    doing something stupid and getting out is better than being "got out" by a bowler experience will fix his problem

    Dhoni as an opener in tests

    one innings and you think he's the next gilly. Kartik has done well at test level and should stay in the test team. Dhoni for odi's and kartik for tests. and gambhir is doin really well keep him

    Ganguly bats for Greg Chappel

    Considering how well ganguly's batting has been going lately, i doubt chappel has much of a chance now. http://aus.cricinfo.com/link_to_database/ARCHIVE/CRICKET_NEWS/2005/APR/223739_IND_06APR2005.html

    wide/no ball rule question

    ok, say if a bowler were to bowl a bouncer well above my head... the current rules state that it's to be called a wide, and the umpire will signal a wide however, if i take a swat at a delivery above my head and connect, and get caught....... by the rules, doesn't that mean i am ouT? i...
