    ***Official*** Super Series

    But, to be fair, I was agreeing with tooextracool. We can all agree that it made more sense commercially (although, to be fair, not many turned up to watch, but that may well have been for other reasons - certainly, not going for such a superstar lineup wouldn't have provided more interest...

    ***Official*** Super Series

    I don't think Faaip was compiling a list of the best allrounders there though (one clue is the appearance of Ian Harvey in the list :p). I think he was just looking for a range of players with comparable stats in terms of how many overs per match they've bowled per match, and inviting a...

    He just always looks stoned. Kinda like Dessie Haynes.

    ***Official*** Super Series

    You know, I actually agree with this. We know from watching national teams that screwing with a batting order can really bring undesirable results. And the World XI just gives off a messy sense of overkill and confusion as to people's roles. The problem we have with this concept is that, on...

    Battle of the Cricketers

    Two things: 1) Should we not count "Moderator"'s vote for Murali in this instance, as they have been banned for holding a multiple account? 2) If so (and I think we shouldn't), I'll swing the pendulum back by voting Murali.

    Super Series

    I advanced about 25 places to equal 76th - which surprised me 'cause I felt I did a fair bit better in the first match. There's obviously a lot of people bunched up on similar scores. The gap between where I am and first place has increased from around 35 to 50-odd though.

    Bobby Simpson's Scathing Critique of Australian Cricket

    Holy crap, Richard - this one peeled my hair back! To be honest, I actually reference a lot of articles here - and often introduce them as "here's an interesting article from ......... on ...........". The reason I was critical of this one was because Simpson was for the most part just...

    LOL, Bracken pulled it off. 3/43.

    He's trying to get in the Guinness Book of Records under "Latest late cut ever", and it's taking more attempts than he thought it would.

    Oh, Dravid... That was pretty poor. Things look pretty grim now for the World XI.

    ***Official*** Super Series

    Wow, what a strange dismissal - Flintoff completely lost his feet there, and just spooned it to Symonds. Did somebody (was it Robertinho?) have money on Bracken taking at least two wickets for under 45 runs today? Let's see if we wipe the laughter off PY's face. :) He's only got about 12...

    Yup, definitely.

    ***Official*** Super Series

    It ain't over yet. They have about 111 balls to go, 135 to win, and 5 wickets in hand. It'll be very tough from here, but the fat lady isn't singing. Dravid and Flintoff are in, and there's still Pietersen and Pollock to come.

    Gee - that one could have been referred, Rudi.

    ***Official*** Super Series

    I never barrack against the Aussies, so I can't say that, to be honest. I'd certainly like it to be a better contest, though. But I was just giving an honest opinion of where I thought the game was at, really - it's not as if the World XI is completely out of this. And whether the series...

    OUT! Fairly rotten innings from Kallis - to be honest, it wouldn't have hurt us too much to keep him around a little while longer. :)

    ***Official*** Super Series

    Boy, that bail took forever to dislodge - I think it's still out though.

    ***Official*** Super Series

    Wow, Lara was really determined to go out, this innings - he finally succeeded, in somewhat similar fashion to the last game (hit it a bit more firmly though)... Now things are looking much better for Australia... Still anybody's game though.

    ***Official*** Super Series

    Oh Gilly! That was a terrible drop. And a rotten misfield from Lee ruins a run-out opportunity... Aaargh. All in the middle of a pretty good spell from Watson.

    No doubt it was a poor call. But it was typical red-inker stuff from Kallis. He should have gone.
