    Possible restrictions on bats being looked at

    Balance favours batsmen - David Richardson | Cricket | ESPN Cricinfo Are they finally going to do something about this issue? If so, about time. Nothing pisses me off more than seeing ****ty batsmen mis-hit amazing bowlers for six.

    Is pretty dumb. Thoughts?

    Future England spinners

    Seriously, best prospect tbh. Bowls with very good accuracy, and gets bounce.

    Conflict within 'the spirit of the game'.

    So about a month ago, Ramdin was punished by the ICC for claiming a grounded catch, and going against 'the spirit of the game'. Whats the difference between claiming a grounded catch, and not walking when you know 100% that you are out aka Stuart Broad? Interested to see opinions

    Windies domestic Thread

    Haven't seen one of these for a while so thought I'd post this for discussion on the latest goings on, also for me to discuss any prospects I've been tracking/keeping an eye on. T20 island tournament is going on, and I actually watched Guyana/C&C last night. ****ing ridiculous game. Was mainly...

    RIP SL cricket thread

    SL cricket Doom and Gloom thread Lets face it guys. Things are a complete and utter shambles here. I know on the face of things NZ look pretty bad as well, but honestly its SL I'm really concerned about. I genuinely think the SLCB has done irreparable damage to their cricket. They had a...

    Cricket's spin resurrection

    So out of nowhere really, cricket's spin stocks have suddenly become high again. Ajmal, Rehman, Swann, Herath, Mendis, Panesar, Ojha, Ashwin, Lyon, Narine, Jeets, Gazi, Dockrell. So many spinners who are at least serviceable to very good and are the focal point of their attacks. Why has this...

    This is why SA will always have a good side

    ICC Under-19 World Cup 2012 : ICC Under-19 World Cup 2012: 'We train our young guys differently' - Ray Jennings | Cricket Features | ICC Under-19 World Cup | ESPN Cricinfo Nothing to do with talent, they just work/train harder than everyone else. Mystery solved

    Tactical retiring in T20

    With so few deliveries to play with, how long will it be before this tactic comes into play? Makes sense to me, teams need to utilise their batting finishers in the same way the fielding side uses bowling finishers. Plus its better to retire a guy and keep him in reserve than have him attempt...

    Congrats to Philander

    Fastest post-war bowler to 50 wickets. Straight outta Lohmann/Spofforth territory this guy.

    How much longer will DF survive as Indian coach?

    I give him three weeks.

    Quinton de Kock

    19 years old, averaging over 60 after 12 FC games (in SA - very tough to do). Reportedly very talented. Another future SA batting gun? Could he replace Smith as the next longterm test opener/captain?

    Fast bowling time capsule

    Idea of this is that we take a group of young international fast bowlers, compare and contrast, then bump the thread yearly to check progress and see how opinions have changed over time. For this I'd suggest Yadav/Finn/Cummins/Pattinson/J Khan/D Bracewell/Marchant De Lange. Concept for me is...

    Drugs

    For legal purposes, I'd like to clarify that I am in no way encouraging anything. This is an attempt at adult debate related to the various mind altering substances available to your average purveyor and the curious scenarios said substances provide. Opinion may or may not come straight from the...
