    What would be your best opening combination of all time across all formats and all countries?

    There are certain openers that also give you an advantage of a 6th or a 7th bowler, which is handy in all formats. Like my choices were Sachin Tendulkar and Sanath Jayasuriya.

    Such a hurt that Pakistan/India series don't take place anymore..and it's been ages...

    This is hurting global cricket somewhat..they could do a series at a neutral venue every now and then...but they won't...there is a new generation of cricketers and hurts to see them not playing against each other..fans, boards, cricket and players all suffer...

    ***Official*** IPL 2024

    Rovman Powell being the West Indies T20i captain was a factor as well, might as well be captaining West Indies in the coming T20i world cup. Rachin Ravindra has yet to prove himself in T20 or T20i cricket.

    Time for ICC to consider hosting a Cricket Europe Cup?

    Close but still not what I am trying to say. Asia Cup is given way more exposure and importance and is usually contested between good competitive teams only. So let's say a Europe Cup with only 4 or 6 teams, with only matches that would likely generate more viewership.

    Do you think 1932/1933 Ashes set the tone for some serious test cricket?

    You know why I am saying that? Ofcourse coz of the 'bodyline' tactics adopted by England in the series.

    Time for ICC to consider hosting a Cricket Europe Cup?

    Just like we have Asia Cup in cricket, should ICC consider hosting a Cricket Europe Cup in a T20I format once every 2 years? As we can see teams like Ireland, Scotland and Netherlands are really improving and taking interest in cricket, anything like that would be interesting. Maybe throw in a...

    Would cricket benefit if West Indies team played as separate island countries cricket teams

    West Indies is actually a region and comprises of 13 island countries, but they all play together as one team named 'West Indies' on international level and that's the only international team they play for. But would it benefit or change cricket for good if these island countries played as...

    Should Wales and Northern Ireland have separate cricket teams?

    Ok. But then why is Scotland an exception?

    Should Wales and Northern Ireland have separate cricket teams?

    Yeah but I was more like trying to say an international level team, just like Scotland...who also play in world cups every now and then..

    List 5 countries you want to see excel in cricket in the next 10 years?

    As in doing really well in cricket, more like progressing (that's why I included non-test playing countries in my list). But it's ok if already established teams are included in the list.

    Should Wales and Northern Ireland have separate cricket teams?

    Technically if Scotland has a separate cricket team of their own since 1994, it should make sense for Wales and Northern Ireland to have separate cricket teams of their own, just like we have in football. I might not be saying that few years ago, but now with so many cricket teams on...
