    **Official** England in The West Indies

    I figured as much. :)

    **Official** England in The West Indies

    I have no idea what this means. Peach cobbler? Little elves that make shoes?

    *Official** New Zealand in England

    How about to win matches now? It's not all about the World Cup. There are actual matches which count in between them.

    **Official** England in The West Indies

    That's insane. It only reinforces the culture of individual glory over team success.

    Best vs Rest

    Also Craig, watch out. You're not supposed to get pudding in your eye.

    Best vs Rest

    By far the best ODI side, but not by far the best Test Side. Beat India first.

    Drop Kumble and put in Vaas? Isn't the point to try to win the games?

    Streak Sacked As Zimbabwe Captain

    I think I was unclear. I'm not denying that they are linked, I was asking why they should be linked. I'm arguing that there should be no link at all, and maybe I'm mistaken, but I thought you were saying they are inherently intertwined?

    *Official* India in Pakistan Thread

    Shoaib Akhtar is scary as hell. His balls get quicker and quicker as the over and his spell goes on. The last ball before tea was 96 mph. That is insane. He is regularly bowling at 95 mph. I feel bad for the batsmen. Also, let me reiterate my desire to see Tendulkar dropped in the lineup. 6 is...

    Streak Sacked As Zimbabwe Captain

    No, the Aboriginals don't have the power to quite make you do that. If you lived in Zimbabwe, it'd be a different story, because they do have the power to make the white farmers there do what they want. And why do politics and sports go hand-in-hand?

    I think Craig is having some difficulty with the concept of making these teams. 8-)

    *Official* India in Pakistan Thread

    I think the reason for this, and I say this will all due respect to the Pakistani batsmen, is that less is expected of the Pakistani batsmen than the Indian batsmen. So going from 147-7 to 287 was almost expected, but here, this was a shock. Although I could've told anyone it would've happened...

    *Official* India in Pakistan Thread

    This is truly a poetic line, but let's hold off on making fun of them unless and until we put up a big score ourselves! We seem intent on taking 100 overs to score a 100!

    *Official* India in Pakistan Thread

    Which one of your batsmen exactly are injured? This seems to be your fully-powered batting attack with seven batsmen. Surely you're not going to argue that Razzaq's injury is hurting you? Maybe Moin Khan's injury as he's a better bat than Akmal, but Akmal saves more runs as keeper.

    Streak Sacked As Zimbabwe Captain

    Thank you, and I certainly appreciate and identify with your viewpoint far more than the one I argued for. But I just don't feel that Michael Vaughan is the man we should pinning our hopes for a free Zimbabwe on! Back to the cricket I suppose!

    *Official** New Zealand in England

    Marc, a sense of humor please?

    *Official** New Zealand in England

    It's actually very sad that finances come into play at all on a tour. An international cricket team not able to afford to take more than 14 players? That's a bad sign for New Zealand cricket.

    *Official** New Zealand in England

    What a ridiculous thing to say. He doesn't need to be left-handed at all.

    Streak Sacked As Zimbabwe Captain

    Okay before I respond, here's my disclaimer: I'm not a racist. I was just playing devil's advocate, and I will continue to do so because all the dialogue on this matter has really been one-sided. And please let's not let emotions get involved. Some of you seem to have been really hurt or made...
