    How good is the Pakistan Team right now? (AKA the Pakistani climate thread)

    Usman Khawaja?

    How good is the Pakistan Team right now? (AKA the Pakistani climate thread)

    Get Usman Salahuddin in the team. I'll finally have a namesake with a jersey.

    Son of a Preacher Man

    Yeah. JWHT Douglas probably the most interesting Essex cricketer from back in the day, but there's a fair bit to talk about Peter Smith from what I've read previously. I must confess to knowing precious little about Ray Smith though.

    Son of a Preacher Man

    Peter Smith is a pretty interesting character tbf, in fact there were a few others at Essex in those days not least his namesake Ray - as I say I'll give it some thought

    Scorecard Draft III

    welcome on board sphynx......I hope you don't possess the actual qualities of that mythical creature that is your namesake :)

    Mervyn Westfield Is A ****

    Not good for the Westfield brand having this rubbish associated with their namesake.

    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.

    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.
