    International Cricket Captain: Forumer's Challenge

    ...115, with the next highest score being Strauss' 28. Hing followed that up with the dismissal of Geriant Jones (8) to first slip, and his namesake Simon was gone the same way for a duck. At 228 it was only a matter of time before the tail was cleaned up, and Dean obliged, Ballich taking his...

    International Cricket Captain: Forumer's Challenge

    ...off side, but Dean made up for it in his next over, getting Geraint Jones to feather a catch through to Dharan. Jones was replaced by his namesake Simon with 57 runs to get, and with 51 required Hing finally got Joyce - the slow left armer had toiled away between lbw shouts, plays and misses...

    Top 5 all time best from every country?

    I was being cheeky. There are a fair few to fill the 5 spots for Indian bowlers tbf. And with all due respect to them (which generally means total disrespect), Mushtaq Mohammad and Kardar are only namesake all-rounders.

    International Cricket Captain: Forumer's Challenge

    ...- the umpire says not out. Not sure what for, mind - that looked plumb. Only the one run from the over. Phlegm has got something over his namesake here, probing away on a good length, and after two blocks he beats the outside edge. There's an edge played intentionally down and reaches slip...

    English Domestic Season 2011

    Putting his namesake, Cameron, to shame.

    *Official* English Football Season 2010-11

    I'm surprised you didn't put David May and Phil Neville in TBH.

    *Official* English Football Season 2010-11

    ...he'd work well in this midfield. Joke Hole - Feel sorry his Liverpool time has failed, best left sided threat we've had, especially with his namesake offering overlap runs allowing Cole to venture in and do something special Owen - Say what you want about footballs favourite jockey, but he's...

    ICC 2005 Super Challenge

    ...year old. The bowling attack looked sharp, unfortunately Elias Sunny suffered a fracture in the Sussex game and will miss three weeks. His namesake Arafat Sunny secured the spare spinner-spot in the final tour game. 1st Test - England v Bangladesh - Bangladesh defeated England by 141 runs...

    *Official* Match 42 - India v West Indies

    Sammy's been fairly good with the ball.

    *Official* Match 42 - India v West Indies

    Michelle for Ravi. His namesake in the comm box makes an interesting point: he's surely better value in the team than the captain, who's been pretty damn ordianry in every discipline so far.

    Naff IPL Team Names

    Punjab has 10x richer culture, history than Rajasthan. Maharaja Ranjit Singh's (The Quintessential Indus Man) Military General Sardar Hari Singh Nalwa conquered Kashmir, Multan, Peshawar and made Chamba, Kangra and Jammu bow before him. He extended his territories upto Ladakh and China and...

    Best Bowling Action

    He did and he was very side on. I wouldnt coach that. But also if that was a kids natural action then I wouldnt change it. On the plus side for him, he hit the crease hard and had the benefit of a fast bowlers backside :)

    Best Bowling Action

    Incidentally your own namesake Goughy had a very nice action. He too used to jump quite high at the crease.

    *Official* Road to the 2010/11 Ashes

    Personally, 'Ronald' McDonald appears to be a lot like his namesake Ronald Irani. Similar records too.

    And i saw bradman play....

    Can't even imagine anyone else coming up with anecdotes that could evoke as much warmth as your post above does. One of my favorite stories from a biography on Bradman was Bill O Reilly and Bradman playing against each other for the first time. Don scores 232 over the whole day and remains not...

    And i saw bradman play....

    ...not enough money to be earned from the game. Hence, my first coach was Wally Grout. I have played Grade with the likes of Ken Mackay, Your namesake, and still count among my friends Jeff Thompson and Wesley Hall who I played both with and against at Grade level. I have played on the SCG and...

    I walked past your namesake today, after watching him get 1, sad times.

    John Howard to head ICC?

    It is gonna go the way everything else in the ICC goes.. Decided on votes and backroom politics. But still don't think CA and BCCI would be stupid enough to let an issue like this get in the way of a mutually profitable alliance... Still sticking to my "BCCI using this as a...

    John Howard to head ICC?

    ...There surely could have been an opportunity when Aus and NZ were debating whether to put up Howard or John Anderson (who ironically is the namesake of Howard's former Deputy Prime Minister) to indicate to both countries that they would not endorse Howard if he was put forward. That would...
