    Viv Richards vs Larry Gomes

    Who was the better off spinner? I was initially going to give it to Richards on the basis of that he has a couple of five-fors and I've actually seen him turn the ball, but I must admit that Gomes has the advantage in averages in both formats.

    Causality in batting easiness

    It's a pretty observable fact some eras, especially the 20s, 40s and 00s saw higher batting averages than others. The general factors you'll hear about this are that there were no great bowlers (especially fast bowlers) or that pitches were flatter. I'd like to see some discussion over the...

    What is the best continent?

    Fan of this one. Small and easy to get around, not too cold, not very crowded. Does perhaps lack in variety of scene though.

    A battle of the leggies

    After my failure last night, I've decided to go direct. I don't think I'll have any dispute that these two are some of the worst of their type to represent their countries in tests.

    Battle of the English batting capitulations (2010s)

    Collapsing to God-mode Stuart Broad on a green wicket is one thing, but collapsing to Hardik Pandya on a not-so-green wicket is another. Getting bowled out for 58 on a pitch on which Henry Nichols can score a century is just dire. In reply to the currently existing thread for Australia, let's...

    Cricket Web chooses the worst test pace bowler ever

    As some of you may have noticed, mr_mister has been doing a sterling job with his threads where we vote for the best of a certain category of cricketer. And while this celebration of excellence is all well and good, I feel like there's something missing. What about those cricketers who have...

    Some old bowlers...

    Now, those of you who follow my (irregular and often pointless) posting on here would know that I post a lot in the historic footage thread, and am a bit of an afficiando of pace bowlers from the newsreel era. Now, I once read someone (not very bright and perhaps not representative of the...
