    Have you done a tour of Lord's?

    I would love to go in the future when/if I go to England.

    Batting against left-arm over the wicket pace bowlers

    It could be the variation, perhaps a pace difference, angle, swing and/or seam, bounce, and more. Work on it in the nets with your left arm bowlers and work out how to play them.

    New Cricinfo Design

    It looks better IMO, but it's not as good all in all. Harder to navigate as well, while we get used to it.

    I'm at school at the moment, I will check it out when I get home though.

    Cricketing One Hit Wonders . . .

    It's a bit early for that don't you think? I'm not saying he will do anything special in the future, nor saying he will even play for Australia again, but he could do lots of special things, especially being an attacking spinner with a bit of talent.

    Which is your preferred limited overs format?

    50 overs. The middle overs can get a tad boring sometimes though.

    Make up of a cricket team

    That's all up to personal opinion, IMO.

    Nathan Hauritz

    No, he is overrated. A few good limited overs domestic games, lots of people think he is great, but he's not. He could probably get by playing for Australia as a spinner in both forms, but will never set the world on fire, but he won't let you down.

    Why do umpires always get bagged out?

    It's always the umpires. No matter what they do, the crowds, spectators, fans, critics, forumers, analysts, commentators etc always find a way to bag them out for something they do wrong or that doesn't suit them. They are humans and humans make mistakes. Some people don't realize that sometimes.

    I don't want him back anyway. He ha retired from international cricket, that is that. Done and dusted. Plus, we don't need to bring, him back. It's not like we are in dire jeopardy of coming last or anything important. I couldn't care less if we came last or first anyway.

    Are Middlesex right in taking on Phil Hughes?

    I don't see how they did anything wrong. Yes is the answer from me.

    Modi hints @ 2 IPL tourneys a year

    Overkill IMO. 1 is enough, too many if you ask me. There are so many problems it isn't funny. Interest will fade (it already has between season 1 and 2), players wont be able to make it, be worse in the long term, and as a consequence of all of these plus more, it will eventually die out or...

    What's Your Aussie Ashes Squad?

    From the 10-20 overs I saw from him on streams, it seemed to me as though he was pitching it short, and occasionally wide, and being belted to the boundary. Also, I don't understand why the selectors have him so many ODI's in our limited overs summer a few months ago, but he was dreadful there...

    Graeme Swann

    Same here. I'm really keen to see how he goes, how the Aussies handle him, and if the Australian batmsen (particularly the left handers) can nullify him.

    Nathan Hauritz

    I thought I posted this before but it appears I didn't or it got deleted somehow. Hauritz is a very underrated Test cricketer and a very overrated limited overs cricketer. I reckon he will surprise a few people during this series.

    What's Your Aussie Ashes Squad?

    I've never particularly liked or rated him, never saw what all the fuss was about.

    Should Brett Lee be selected for the Ashes?

    Your spies need practice.

    Should Brett Lee be selected for the Ashes?

    I've been reconsidering, and for me, if the deck isn't offering much to the spinners, Lee should be selected. But if the track is spinning, he should be ommitted for Hauritz, and Watson is capable of being 4th seamer for 15-20 overs maximum, and any other overs to come from Katich and Clarke, as...

    ICL Releases Players

    It's good to see the likes of Bond back, it seems to me like all the Kiwi's are happy to welcome him back and excited to welcome him back into their squad. He will play test cricket again, IMO, after impressing in the limited overs fixtures. Also really happy for Bangladesh to be getting it's...
