    Watson to replace mike hussey

    How do you reckon Watson would perform at 4 out of interest? Clarke isn't the best against a swinging ball, whilst Watson has batted at 4 and opened for the Bulls as well as batting 1-9 for Australia in ODI's, averaging 219 facing the first ball, 41.30 opening from the non strikers end, and has...

    Run Up

    Have you actually measured and marked out a run up? Go to an emtpy place with plenty of space, then make a mark in the ground. Run through your run up and action with your eyes closed. Have a mate mark where your front foot lands in your delivery stride. Repeat until you are landing in the same...

    How to improve running with legguards?

    This. You don't have to run long distances with pads on. Run longer distances for stamina without pads. Try to keep off your feet as much as you can especially if you are a pace bowler. Using the bike, and swimming, as well as other forms of cardio where you don't put as much pressure on your...

    How to improve test cricket

    Using Hawkeye for challenged LBW's, and put it on the big screen. Tennis has benefited loads from Hawkeye becoming available. There is tension that builds up on the replay, would work at the ground well. I had another idea before I came to this thread and forgot it.

    Johnson vs Broad with the bat

    Ashes run tally After first test Broad - 33 runs - 2 innings Johnson - 0 runs - 0 innings That is looking pretty good now. However, Broad looks pretty likely to be dropped, but personally, I'd rather he remains in the team. But I'm only interested in what is in the best interests of...

    Matt Prior

    I swear there was a couple of Australian keepers who played for England. I thought Prior was one.

    Battrick

    I batted first in my Twenty20. End of Over 13: 76-10, runrate=5.85 Acton 3-0-25-3 Mulvaney* 40 (32 balls) Mulvaney is my number 3. Poor performance TBH.

    Watson to replace mike hussey

    I don't see it happening. I have said numerous times that throughout or at the conclusion of this series if Hussey fails to make runs he should, and probably will, be dropped, but I didn't expect it to happen after the first test, if of course it happens. I'd assume is this happens, North will...

    *Official* First Test at Swalec Stadium, Cardiff

    That pisses me off, we really deserved to win. Were the better team by miles. Poor captaincy from Ponting to have part timers on so much, when Hauritz is at the other end, and talk about underbowling Hilfenhaus. I reckon Siddle, Hilfenhaus or Johnson should have been at the other end rather than...

    Captaincy of Strauss and Ponting

    So far, Ponting has been spot on, Strauss...nah.

    *Official* First Test at Swalec Stadium, Cardiff

    Anyway, great day for Australia. Belting our way to 674 then getting them 2/20 must be a dream day. I'd love to be in the Australian team right now. I'm so proud of our guys. Anyway, I won't be on here tonight (for the fifth day), gunna be at a mates place watching. Looking forward to seeing...

    *Official* First Test at Swalec Stadium, Cardiff

    Last year there was no Ashes. In 2006 maybe. But you have to remember that the forum grows as more members come and contribute.

    *Official* Second Test at Lords

    Hopefully it's the chance that Hussey needs to make some runs on a road and get his confidence back. Obviously he made runs in the England Lions game, but when he actually makes a good score in a Test match, his confidence will sky rocket.

    Draw? Fair chance IMO.
