    Cyber-bullying

    Let's be honest, everyone who has used an internet forum has spent a significant portion of their time being dicks to people they'll hopefully never be within punching distance of. Everyone says things they wouldn't say to a person face to face. Where do you draw the line? What is bullying and...

    Imran v Hadlee v Miller

    Somebody calculated and posted this table of adjusted averages * SR. I don't agree with the prioritisation of SR to yay extent but it shows Trueman was all ahead of the curve.

    Classic contests that DRS would've ruined

    Donald had Atherton fairly early on in that innings. Some pretty woeful umpiring made things closer than they should've been in the 2000 WI Vs Pak series. This thread isn't about bad decisions per se, just instances when having a review would've prevented a thrilling contest from commencing.

    What is cheaper where you live

    Cheese or butter? Pretty similar manufacturing process so there shouldn't be much of a disparity

    Moderate up/downgrade thread

    You know the drill. List 2 cricketers similar in style and state who was the moderate upgrade on the other. Ex: Kapil was a moderate upgrade on Afridi as a one day batsman.

    Zaheer Abbas vs Ian Chappell

    Better batsman? They had careers which overlapped a fair bit and both had similar roles. Abbas averaged 2 more runs more innings but had a slightly inferior century ratio. Better batsman? You decide! Interesting comparison imo.

    What are you thankful to CW for?

    For adding the word melt to my vocabulary. Oh and I discovered Peep Show through here.

    Hedley Verity vs Clarrie Grimmett

    Bill O'Reilly is generally considered to be the best interwar spinner owing to his supreme Ashes record and reputation as a fearsome bowler who troubled Bradman to an extent. The other 2 notable spinners from this period are Verity and Grimmett, both of whom also did relatively well when they...

    Prepare Trundler for online dating

    Best 'keeper of the 90s

    The 90s saw each of Australia, England, Pakistan and NZ field top class wicket-keepers. But who was the best between Healy, Russell, Latif and Parore? There's always talk of the best bowler and batsmen of that decade but the wicket-keeping stocks don't appear low on quality either.

    The Cricket Web Saga: episode one

    The Chronicles of Julius speak of a being "made entirely of inadequacy and wholly inexpedient" The etymology of zorax is difficult to ascertain. One theory suggests that the term is derived from Clorox, which is what the readers of its posts on finger-spin were tempted to drink. According to...

    Of feasts and famines

    The previous decade was notoriously easy for batting and there was a dearth of good fast bowlers. This has been rectified in this decade as even India have a decent pace bowling unit. But there are no truly great opening batsmen since Cook retired. None. The question which originally popped in...
