    Best Bowler Ever

    Mark Boucher has a Test Bowling Average of 6.00 - So therefore he is the best ever, surely?

    Can Cricket Take Over Soccer?

    The fact that there are only 10 major international teams (And in England, cricket is still the secondary sport) compared to the swathes of International football teams proves that football has a greater appeal across the World than the sound of leather on willow. As Voltman said, it's...

    Qualifying Round - Sri Lanka, West Indies, Bangladesh, Zimbabwe

    A bit harsh, sure they really sucked against the West Indies - But that happens to every team on a given day, particularly if it is a young, unexperienced side playing against world class opposition. They have been having some credible results lately - Scoring 250+ against SA and beating...

    Caption this: Prosper Utseya

    Utseya invested heavily in portable nets, reckoning that if he gave one to all of outfielders they might manage to stop grassing the ball whenever it came to them.

    Yes, an absolute beaut. Is there a clip anywhere of Monty taking Tendulkar's wicket from the same game?

    Battle of the Test Bowling

    It's really tough, and I don't want to vote against Laker, but I have got to say Sarfraz.

    Good young kid. Got a lot of potential.

    Makhaya Ntini

    I think that ever since the start of the last South African Summer, Makhaya has surpassed Shaun Pollock in terms of being our best bowler. Shaun is still a great bowler, but Makha is now our main attacking threat IMHO. Having said that, he had some pitches that really favoured his game in the...

    Unheralded Part of The Game: Fielding

    England's fielding isn't too bad, if you discount slip catching. Which is probably the most important area:sleep:

    What will be the best starting XI for England against India?

    Yes, I always quite liked him. He'd be a better option at the top of the order than Joyce/Bell - And it would spare the risk of having Pietersen or Flintoff opening and getting out first ball.

    What will be the best starting XI for England against India?

    I know that it's very short on match-winners - But from an outside viewpoint there seem to be very few of the big-hitters in the English game at the moment. Pietersen and Flintoff are the obvious exception, but after that the options are all untried and untested. Mal Loye? Hildreth? To put it...

    This year's Simon Jones

    For England - I think that some of their batsmen may suprise, Cook has a formidable reputation already so they will be aware of his promise - But I think that they have not got the same attitude for Collingwood and Bell. Collingwood still has a bit of a reputation as an ODI specialist rather...

    What will be the best starting XI for England against India?

    I see your point, but Collingwood is certainly a bastsman who can bowl a bit rather than an all-rounder, and I drew that particularly up on the theory that Flintoff would not bowl in India, hence why both Dalrymple and Yardy are in the team. In my mind, that equals 5 players who are in the team...

    Battle of the Australians

    Indeed, his performances in the next series against the West Indies proved that he is still an exceptionally talented batsman. Hayden.
