    Is Walsh underrated?

    Walsh was a change bowler for a good number of years of his career (they usually don't get that many wickets) and mcgrath picked up alot of easy wickets after 2000. I think from 1986 until the early 90s walsh was still a first or second change bowler, remember WI still had good bowlers then...

    Is Walsh underrated?

    Ambrose and walsh were rated higher than mcgrath when all three of them were playing, Ambrose was better than Walsh, but both of them were rated above mcgrath especially with walsh racing towards becoming the leading wicket taker in history with the help half decent bowlers after ambrose...

    Gayle Pagon Samuels Hinds Nash Russell Bernard baugh miller Taylor Richardson/Dawes There is Hyatt who has scored a few centuries in recent times - very attacking batsman.

    Can Jamaica become a cricketing nation by itself ?

    Jamaica beat Canada today aswell. Jamaica has close to 11 bowlers right now who are quite good. It's a tough argument because obviously everybody have their question about Jamaica especially since WI is doing so badly. I would love to see Jamaica play some more associate nations in the near...

    Can Jamaica become a cricketing nation by itself ?

    Gayle almost beat AUS all by himself. Guys like roach, and rampaul didn't have the best records when compared to Jamaican bowlers, and benn as a spinner didn't have more success than miller/brown etc from Jamaica. I understand WI selectors choose crap players and most you believe you always see...

    Can Jamaica become a cricketing nation by itself ?

    It's not talent WI isn't doing good today, it's the management team of Jamaica. Jamaica's youth programs are the best in the region and thats why Jamaica's national cricket team has been winning everything in the last 3 seasons of domestic cricket. Maybe the in the past it was the best idea to...

    Can Jamaica become a cricketing nation by itself ?

    I'm quite sure Jamaica would be doing alot better than WI is doing right now. But what does it say for ireland ? Jamaica will play Canada soon, so we will see how that goes. They dominated Ireland in a threeday game aswell.

    Can Jamaica become a cricketing nation by itself ?

    The Jamaican team is head and shoulders above all other teams in the carib in the four day format and recently beat Ireland comfortably in a 50 overs game. Ireland which is suppose to be the best team outside the top 8.

    *Official* Indian Premier League 2010

    Just a bit more to add on the Symonds' dismissal, thanks for clarifying - Prabhath: "The run out of Symonds would have been given not out in the regular camera frames. But it was some new technology called "Ultra slow motion for run outs" showed a frame where the bat was on the crease." Very...

    Richards v Tendulkar - ODIs

    Think about it, after playing 400 plus games Tendulkar is 36 while Viv played until he was 39 and came nowhere near to playing 400 games.

    Richards v Tendulkar - ODIs

    I'm saying it makes his avg better, not saying Tendulkar isn't extremely good but i'm saying viv was alot better. Just simple things like fielding restrictions play a big role in tendulkar's record, the bats he played with play a big role aswell. Especially the Indian bats, ive seen Yuvraj...

    Richards v Tendulkar - ODIs

    I'm sure if every good ODI batsman played over 400 games they might score a double after a while. How significant is a score that took 400 tries to accomplish ? While other players came 6-15 runs without doing the same thing years ago ? Viv only had 10 centuries, not too many big scores to...

    Richards v Tendulkar - ODIs

    Because viv played less game all his scores mattered more - while tendulkar's low scores won't have an impact on his record. Viv batting like a 20/20 player in terms of his aggression and strike rate when compared to the avg ODI strike rate - 20/20 today is advanced batting in terms of scoring...

    Richards v Tendulkar - ODIs

    Some minor facts about stats - the more games played increases the likeliness of a player having a good avg - so tendulkar playing twice as much as viv means he should end up fairing better. Viv had less opportunity to fail and still have a good avg. Tendulkar could make 20 ducks in his next 20...

    *Official* Australia in New Zealand

    NZ were able to reach a risk free 270 after tuffey's charge, probably won't happen now.

    England in West Indies, 1986

    Jamaica Gleaner - Library There is a link in the last line, go from there. I think the cost is very cheap, but remember all newspapers have their achives online, times of london etc etc. But goodluck.

    England in West Indies, 1986

    The Jamaicagleaner should have alot of information about that series. Other newspaper will have all the information you need, but I think you would have to pay to view the archives.
