    Cricket team draft

    So far my team is looking like this: 1. 2. 3. 4. Brian Lara 5. 6. 7. Richard Hadlee 8. Richie Benaud 9. Ian Healy 10. Daniel Vettori 11. With Michael Hussey to fit in somewhere. He could open, if I fail to grab any, and I want Lara to stay in the middle order, so he wont be opening.

    Cricket team draft

    I've got an allrounder on my mind, who I will probably go for next round, but he will surely be taken by then. Probably the one everyone is talking about.

    Cricket team draft

    I grabbed my bowlers early, and now I get to pick batsmen for the rest of it. Maybe an extra quick in there if needed, but doubt I will.

    We should start up an NRL.com tipping comp for CricketWeb members only IMO. I will start it closer to the start of the season if needed.

    Cricket team draft

    Will probably run with Vettori at 7 to be honest, Healy at 6. That may be a bit high for Healy, but oh well.

    Not custom made, but a hand made bat from Jullian Millichamp (a screaming cat) is what I am looking at at the moment.

    Fate of 2011 World Cup

    It would be nice to have it staged in Australia, but it's so far away it could still be held on the sub-continent somewhere. Anything is possible at the moment, but I'm hoping Australia gets it.

    How to oil bat correctly?

    I use an old cloth with the bat oil, and apply it. Do the front and edges, and toe if you don't have a toeguard. Avoid the splice, and it doesn't really matter if you touch the stickers a little bit. To see if you have done too much, hold the bat vertical and see if any oil runs down the face...
