    Cricketweb ODI Rankings

    For years people have tried to successfully rate who is the best team in world cricket. There have been many attempts - some more successful than others. At the start of the year, Neil Pickup devised a system for ranking teams' abilities in test matches. These have now been adopted as...

    Shaftab Khalid

    Aftab Khalid Young Worcs off spinner, apparently short listed for the academy this winter. I was wondering what Chris Hinton can tell us about him? Hasn't played much cricket but according to the commentators he has a wrong un, ala Murali/Saqlain!

    Fastest To Multiples Of 1000 Runs

    Whilst doing a bit of research on Graeme Smith I noticed that this is achieved by some of the alltime greats. Stewart and Atherton each have 8000 runs to their names, a great achievement, but they have batted at a time England has been short of world class batsmen and both average below 40. I...

    Geraint Jones

    OK Rich's sig got me thinking. Geraint Jones has had a phenomonal start to his career (which before this year was prety much non-existent) - is he the man to replace Alec Stewart behind the stumps for England (in test matches anyway)? He's not young, but then Stewie himself was 27 on debut. I...

    Anyone in Bath this weekend?

    I just wondered if any of the members here would be visiting Bath for the festival of cricket taking place at the moment?

    Richard Johnson for England?

    I just thought I'd put up a thread commenting on Richard Johnson's exellent start to the English county season. On a couple of occasions previously, he has come close to gaining selection for England, and I wondered if he might finally get the nod this summer when Zimbabwe tour. What does...

    Namibia v Netherlands

    What an incredible match between these two minnows. Not like anything else in this world cup, with pool B containing Kenya, who are clearly stronger than the three ICC Trophy qualifiers. Holland batted first and racked up 314-4, the second highest score of the tournament (Zimbabwe got 340-2...

    Sri Lanka v West Indies

    This one is getting interesting. Sri Lanka lost early wickets and crawled along. Didn't look like they'd get much past 200 before some late blows saw them reach 228-6. West Indies lost Hinds early, then Lara for an uncharacteristic 1 off 22 balls! Vaas inspired early on returned 7-3-14-2 which...

    Marc's 5k tribute thread

    Well Marc recently (ie earlier today) passed the big mountain of a landmark that is 5,000 posts. Unthinkable on most forums, and on here in fact, as recently as a couple of months ago, it is an incredible achievement. He only needs another 80 posts to overtake Aravinda De Silva and move into...

    What happened to Aqib Javed

    I was just looking at the list of ODI hat-tricks and wondered if someone knows whether he still has a chance of getting back in the side? He debuted at 17 in the same game as Waqar Younis and in 1991 took 7-37 against India, including a hat-trick. By the time he was 20 he had won a world cup...

    Women's words and phrases

    WORDS WOMEN USE FINE - This is the word women use to end an argument when they feel they are right and you need to shut up. Never use "fine" to describe how a woman looks. This will cause you to have one of those arguments. FIVE MINUTES - This is half an hour. It is equivalent to the...

    Interpretation Of Murphy's Law

    1. Everyone has a photographic memory. Some don't have film. 2. He who laughs last, thinks slowest. 3. A day without sunshine is like, well, night. 4. Change is inevitable, except from a vending machine. 5. Back up my hard drive? How do I put it in reverse? 6. I just got lost in thought. It...
