i got that argument initially and i was in favour of it too but if he's doing the same after being warned and instructed and even requested then that is just being rude imo. its not on other people to clean messes he leaves as much as i find it funny that he makes mods work so much
We don't really do much about it, I just edit his thread titles and occasionally merge/lock them. The in-thread copypasta is realistically more of an issue than shitty titles.

It's more annoying that he links to a Moonda article.

Does Cricinfo also have no copy editors or do they not give a stuff when it's about a team other than India?

Whatever it takes!!!
Eh, still good to have a thread to discuss the actual matches in. I don't mind having separate threads for A tours, we had one for NZ A v Aus A recently.

As far as GS Kohli's other antics go - we can't get him to stop. When @Spark banned him for ignoring our instructions people complained that it was too harsh, so we can't win. We're definitely not going to be spending our time deleting or editing 20 of his posts per day. We either cop it or we ban him.
Why not have a single Offical A tour thread though.

Some people complained. I, for one, was quite happy.
I witnessed Brevis innings vs Sri lankan A
98 not out with 8 sixes & 6 fours after SA A slipped to 155/6 chasing 268 or so. ( SL A 264/8

SA A won by 4 wkts lead series 1/0.

Next game just completed with easy 7 wkt win by Local Sri lankan team
SA were reduced to 43 for 7 but Yet another Mumbai Boy Tristan stubbs (59)& # 9 Coetzee (77 odd) put on 112 for 8 wkt.

SL A with first 3 batsman out in single digit opener Maduska hits 102* as SL A level the series 1/1.

Dilshan M. was outstanding who picked 4 wkts for SL A

What GSK is doing would have been excellent in the early 2000s when hardly any cricket news sites existed outside of CI and some others...

I have the Cricbuzz app on my phone.

GSK is probably too slow...
Too slow ?
Time Difference between newyork & india
