Hi Ho All, I am ... well I don't know what. I don't know if this matters. I don't know if this typifies the current state of the game and it's ruling bodies. I...
I think the matter has to be looked at not of an umpiring error but rather a mis-interpretation and implementation of law. The example given of Kasp gloving a...
... For me, this has nothing to do with it. ... Nor this. In both cases, whether it was right or wrong, for me is irrelevant. What matters is that a governing...
So basically you are a person to me that loves to follow the book ... Laws are meant to guide and if a ruling body of cricket is unable to alter laws and has...
... The Laws are there. Changes of the Laws to suit conditions, tournaments, age levels or whatever are generally fine ... limited overs cricket basically...
Hi Ho All, Yesterday Bilal wrote ... ... ... and only today did I remember something that I had been meaning to post for a week now. It is a book review of a...
Let's face it, the ICC is as corrupt inside as the Zimbabwe regime. India is now hell bent on running the game and the "Indian bloc" as Bilal put it, vote as...
Just one question I see all the references against ICC being made after changing the decision of the Test match .. How come there was no issue when the ban on...
... I believe he wasn't banned. He was stood down to be rehabilitated, and once that process was completed, he was reinstated. And I'm fine with this....
Hi Ho All, Bugger! I have a five year old son who, this summer, will be presented with his first kit. And over the coming years I will slowly indoctrinate him...
Hi Ho All, Quick, quick, the wagons are being attacked and they are trying to shoot the horses. If we shoot them first they will go away, and we can sell off...
To be fair, I heard David Stewart speak with Jonathan Agnew about this yesterday during the test at Lords. He was adamant this was a document that had been...
Hi Ho All, And Hi Ho Robert ... A new name! Welcome. When you think about it, you may well be right. I often think the big issue with cricket is the...
Hi Ho All, If I think about it (which I don't want to do as it depresses the crap out of me) I am in fact more pissed that the English would do it, even though...
Well it won't do it too many favours Rob. Unlike football (soccer :P ) it's not universal. It's most popular in Britain's old colonial holdings, and those...
Really I dont understand what is your problem - is it with 2020 itself ? Is it with the premier league ? Or is it with making money out of it ? Gau ...
Hi Ho All, A sensible question Gaurav. Yes, yes and yes, but for various reasons and in certain circumstances. Yes I have a problem with 20/20. Simply because...
Hi Ho All, For all my complaints of late ... well who cares! It is all irrelevant. Quite frankly, it can all fade away to nothing, Test cricket, ODI and 20/20...
For shortage of time I will respond to only some of your points now. I believe 20/20 is MUCh better than 50 over cricket. Not just me, great players like Shane...
Just to add I was not for 20/20 earlier but now when I look at it I find the bowlers getting better for me Umar Gul is a prime example of a guy who learned to...
I think, provided we get enough test matches, 2020 will thrive. If you've ever seen how pervasive football culture is in the UK and around many other soccer...
Hi Ho All, ... great players like Shane Warne and Graeme Smith believe so. Well then it must be true, Shane Warne said so :-) ... on attack - takes out the...
Hi Ho All, Asghar Ali wrote ... And me, including the under 8's in the local park on a saturday morning. ... ODI's lost their general appeal in the late 90's....
Getting back to the issue of the premier league. Initially I was a staunch opponent of the Indian Premier League, even though I loved the 2020 format. I...
Hi Ho All, And just to completely contradict some of my rants about the shorter version of the game, I am paying special attention to this particular ...
Hi Ho All, I had the pleasure of watching the duel between Flintoff and Kallis unfold yesterday and it was up there with some of the best duels ever. It was...
Sad thing is, this series has largely been crap and devoid of good cricket. Much of it's been played on flat boring tracks that give the batsmans dreams and...
Be that as it may, it was a cracking few overs. Reminded me of Donald bowling a spell of a few overs to the Waugh twins in the mid 90s which was simply...
