    Best vs Rest

    Hahaha. This made me almost choke on my food. :D :D

    Quite Simply A Brilliant Article

    I wouldn't say everything you post is abject nonsense. Okay, fair enough, some of it is but once in a while you deliver a polished diamond. 8-)

    Cricket Web Draft

    No way, that's no fun. Every player is up for grabs!

    **Official** England in The West Indies

    Perhaps, but I doubt Cricinfo would face a libel lawsuit by printing false statements, so my statement that they were drinking and partying is true. The only reason I posted the article is because you stated "I should know of what I speak before I speak," and that article, and all the coverage...

    Streak Sacked As Zimbabwe Captain

    8 out of 11 is still completely disproportional to the number of whites versus blacks in the country. In America, that would be the statistical basis for a quick and easy victory in a discrimination lawsuit. Ah yes, International Relations are so annoying. It's easy to kick Zimbabwe out because...

    **Official** 'My Current World XI' Thread

    I don't think Uncle Fester should be in there either. He hasn't done it in enough matches for me.

    Akhter is overrated!

    Akhtar is overrated inasmuch as he is touted as the best fast bowler ever. He's the fastest, but not the best. I agree Swervy, his temperament and fitness leave much to be desired. His talent is unquestionable however. But how can you cite his 3-42 and ignore the nice big 0-fer in that first...

    **Official** England in The West Indies

    Yes, I don't want to get into an argument either. But just so you're fully informed, please read this article: http://usa.cricinfo.com/link_to_database/ARCHIVE/CRICKET_NEWS/2004/MAR/096622_WIENG2003-04_15MAR2004.html I do believe it quotes the West Indian Cricket Board as apologizing for their...

    *Official* India in Pakistan Thread

    I'd say India 60-40 to win. With three days to go, so much can still happen! Remember on Day 3 at Lahore, Pakistan was in a better position as they were only 3 down, but collapsed until Kamal stood up. So after tomorrow, we should be able to give more concrete odds. Hehe, I love that nickname...

    *Official* India in Pakistan Thread

    If Tendulkar performs best at 4, I can't imagine how he'd fare elsehwere. I mean with his mighty scores of 1 (3), I hope he doesn't injure himself with all that strokeplay. There was a really funny comment on the telecast of the match. (I was watching on Willow.tv so I don't know which feed it...

    *Official* India in Pakistan Thread

    Yes, he's mistaken about that. But just like when South Africa passed Australia for #1 when Australia had crushed South Africa in test after test over six played both in RSA and Australia, this shows how stupid the rankings are. The last seven tests between India and England have gone 3 to...

    **Official** England in The West Indies

    Well I did not know that only Trinidad and Tobago would do this rewarding, so I apologize. I had assumed that he would receive something from every I have no idea how the fact that the West Indian batsmen can't bat saves them from the accusation that they care more about themselves than the...

    Target 400

    It's only a matter of time! Bowlers quake in their boots when he strides out to the crease. Remember regarding averages, people average zero before their first innings, so what do they really mean anyway?!

    *Official* India in Pakistan Thread

    Why? He's done well under pressure. Sure, Chopra's done a good job, but Patel's done a better job. And if he can handle the physical strains, whats the problem?

    Best vs Rest

    What does that have to do with anything? Australia can't beat India in a test series, but they beat Sri Lanka 3-0 so that makes them by far the best test side? It doesn't work that way. I admit they are the #1 Test Side, and far better than Sri Lanka as that result shows, but they're not that...

    **Official** England in The West Indies

    Yeah, because I'm the only one whose ever said the West Indians don't play as a team and are more interested in looking good and their own success than the team's. And also because Trinidad and Tobago constitutes all of the West Indian team. So yes, since those two statements are verifiably...

    *Official* India in Pakistan Thread

    That was just a nasty delivery. Really nothing he could do I suppose if he wasn't intent on defending it from the very beginning. The game so far seems to be vindicating Ganguly's decision to send Patel to open and keep himself for the middle order. Teaches some people, particularly...

    **Official** England in The West Indies

    Well if that's the case, then I demand that the moderators do something to curb these kind of hateful remarks. I hope this forum doesn't descend into one of anarchy, in which any anti-cobbler remarks will be accepted instead of protested against. If we let cobblers be mocked, then where does it...
