    Cricket team draft

    Hadlee, Lara, Hussey, Healy and Vettori is a shocking start, compared to some of yous. At least I have a strike bowler, keeper, spin bowler, and two batsmen, really need a couple more quicks.

    Cricket team draft

    I doubt it mate, we are already settled into an order and have done 4 or so rounds.

    Cricket team draft

    I was going to take Ponting if Vettori wasn't available, he is picked because I like a spinner in the line up.

    Cricket team draft

    Daniel Vettori. I need a spinner, and he can bat, that's a bonus.

    Fielding in slips

    Used that before, so hard to hit though, most people miss. Haha, yeah, that's true, we always have this old bloke at slip in our games. Never used one of them, how do they go?

    Batting please help me

    Balls on the stumps are not always the best. Middle stump is straight, and can be hit straight or through the mid on/midwicket region. On leg stump, they can be hit almost anywhere on the leg side. Off stump, if pitched up, can be driven, but generally I wouldn't look to score of those balls...

    Spinning

    Do what you enjoy most, think you will do best at, and think you will be best at in the future.

    The avatar challenge

    Whatever Australia make today? So far they have made 50 runs, and only have 1 wicket in hand. I can see South Africa making that. Unless you mean, chasing down the total. I have one. Hayden will make a 50 in this series, provided he bats 6 times. Any takers?

    Yeah, I will take that.

    ***Official*** South Africa In Australia

    Holy ****. South Africa were dominating, so I turned the T.V off to come on the computer. Later in the night, I check the scorecard to see how it ended up, and Johnson has 7 wickets! Strange how he gets so many wickets with bad balls, the batsmen get themselves out against him. Johnson is the...

    ***Official*** South Africa In Australia

    He is banned at the moment, he would be right in the mix of things if he was still here. :laugh:

    I like them, but I haven't seen the Jaques one.

    ***Official*** Australian Domestic Season 2008/09

    Rohrer brings up his 50 after 70 odd balls, well done. Never seen him before, is he any good? Hughes about to bring up another ton, 95* at the moment, he has been really solid at the start of this season. 50 overs gone, 2/157.

    ***Official*** Australian Domestic Season 2008/09

    It's amazing the runs Hughes is scoring. At one stage he had 40 runs of 46, now he has 63 of 82. Hoping he can go on and get another 100. On Khawaja, why bat him all over the place? Drop Mail, get him in there to open, and leave it like that. Then slip in Henriques or another batsmen who is...

    Taking guard

    I take middle to all bowlers really, but I occasionally (when I am going for a hack) I will take off or leg, to get the bowlers to bowl to my strengths, and the places that allow me to hit the gaps easier.

    Cricket team draft

    Brian Lara and Michael Hussey. Sorry for my inactivity guys, couldn't get on the computer for a few days. Take me out if you like, though my activity shouldn't be a problem anymore.

    Opening the batting

    It's up to them personally what guard they take. When and if I open, I take middle. I take that whenever I bat, except for when I am hitting out. When the ball if new, old or in alright condition, you must play every ball on it's merits (unless you are paying Twenty20's or something). Using the...

    Opening the batting

    Once again, they vary depending on the batsmen's strength's and weaknesses.
