    Brett Lee's recent good form

    What are peoples thoughts on Lee's recent form. Is it just a case of him maturing as a bowler and bowling better line and lengths? No doubt he does not use the same bouncer / yorker tactics and does not bowl as many four balls as he used to.

    Who should fill Martyns Position in the ODI side.

    6 of the top 7 are entrenched. Watson may not end up opening, but he seems likely to be in there somewhere. Which batsman currently outside the team should be the next man in?

    Lucky Batsman (Richard may like this)

    Here is some research from zscore Relying on Luck, More or Less Some batsmen seem luckier than others. Luck is not an easy quantity to measure, but one way to get an indication of it is to look at dropped catches. It is possible, for the last few years anyway, to answer the question, which...

    Michael Vaughan in ODI's

    He's no good and IMO it's a bit of a problem for England ATM they really need to get more out of him. What would people think about him moving down the order and Flintoff moving up?

    Best batsman on poor pitches.

    In this day and age of flat pitches it's hard to know what players actually have the skill to succeed or do well on a minefield given they are seen so rarely these days. If I had to pick a batsman to bat on a green seamer with plenty of swing in the air and erratic bounce I would probably go...

    Wisden International Cricketer of the year.
