Strange to see that there was a tie and i wasnt aware of it.. now i know that i get to know most of the happenings in cricket through this group.. so ppl speak...
well it happened less than 24 hours ago and finished late being a day nighter, but what a match. The last over was amazing: 9 needed off the last over and the...
I agree - what a finish. I have to say SA had it won after their spurt in overs 43-45 and then threw it away again - Boucher's catch of a full toss was a...
I don't know how good the RoW side will be but their selection panel is positively galactic! Gavaskar, Lloyd, Hadlee, Atherton... When it was announced in...
Well if Andy Flower was still playing I'd give him the opener / gloves spot along side Strauss I can't agree with Kallis over Flintoff, I tihnk Kallis is ok...
Kallis almost "suffers" in this selection process because of this all-rounder status. He could quite easily be in the test team on batting alone - but wont' be...
why not have him AND Freddie in the same team? ... From: David Murrin [mailto:david@...] Sent: 03 February 2005 23:05 To: world_cricket@yahoogroups.com ...
Well, that's my point Riff! I would! But it often comes down to the "which one" question. Kallis is in the top 6 batsman in the world, or at least in my top 6...
I don't think there's a problem having two all rounders in a team - increasing the batting and bowling options. Face it, if KAllis wasn't in this current SA...
A true allrounder at this level is someone who can earn a spot in the team as a batsman AND a bowler. Many of the recent and current 'all-rounders' were/are...
MessageI tihnk Freddie definitely fits in the above category too and totally agree with your comments re Gilchrist & Stewart Personally I think Jones is not up...
There is no doubt that Jones can bat, but his keeping seems to be average overall. Did he come up through the ranks a keeper or batsman who could keep and was...
MessageRead's not as good a bat and Jones keeps for Glamorgan - but he's not that much better with the bat (deffo not an opener) and far inferior with the...
... That looks a pretty good selection to me - I agree that Sangakkara is the best available wk/batsman for Test purposes, Pathan is a fine young bowler who...
Hello h r u all this is first wesite there u can talk about Cricket,Movies,Funny,all sports and Games with picturesd and Exclusive Interviews u just click this...
The super series is in October not march..so both Flintoff & Tendulkar have their chances.Sachin should be fit in a couple of months if he doesnt aggrivate...
... All right, I'll give you Sehwag. The triple century certainly was something special. Who would captain your side? I'd like to see Vaughan or Fleming as ...
Vaughan certainly could be a option as captain + opener..and his record in the last ashes helps his cause further.If he plays then Strauss would have to go...
Hi, I wouldn't have Dravid as the captain any day !! , and I never knew Saurabh that you considered Dravid as a better captain than Ganguly ! interesting. I...
A very interesting discussion and things will get more interesting as we reach nearer to the series. Firstly, i am not that interested in the selections for...
So where you fit in Fleming? Non playing captain? :) Everyone has personal opinions and i believe Dravid can do a equally good job if not better than Ganguly...
Hi there people i am just going on no emails, so if i don't reply please forgive me :-). As we will be without ADSL for bout 10 days gunna use the old...
So go the aussies and please someone beat us as the game is getting boring... MAYBE ENGLAND ?????? :-) I wouldn't fancy our chances just now - at least not in...
Hi Mike I think you're being very harsh there. I think England's one day performance is very creditable if you take a couple of factors into account. Sure, ...
agree with Riff England are doin better in ODI ..specially if compared with there ODI cricket over last 5-6 years. Pieterson is doing well but i have to say...
Hi everyone, I am off now for vacation to my motherland and would be back by the end of second test between india & pakistan..will miss the fun here but...
Take care Saurabh For me, I'm looking forward to the Aussies tour of NZ, starting with the 20/20 game on Thursday. Go Flem!!!!!!!!!!!! ... From: Saurabh...
