    No Ducks for 2023

    The Winner: ODI Batsman of 2023 Virat Kohli - no introductions needed, KOhli has long held the post as one of the world's leading cricketers. Not winning the World cup is a big disappointment and likely the last chance he will have but his performances in the tournament were of pure class and...

    Pakistan tour of Australia and New Zealand 2023/24

    This is pathetic and I thought below you...but tbh most ahem posters end up like you. You odn't like me calling out 20/21 in the other thread so you're acting like Pakistan isn't missing first choice players. Would Abrar play?? Do you know anything about Pakistan cricket...

    India's Tour to South Africa

    Second Test XI: At least 7 of those players are first choice/in the conversation. 3rd test XI: 4th test XI: This is the one non cricket...I mean Indian fans can complain about. The bowling line up had become depleted but the batting was still very good. Pujara is the best test bat India...

    It's a great team! It could only be better if all 11 players were India, the coach was Modi and the organisers of every ODI ever was the BCCI which is the greatest empire...I mean organisation ever.

    India's Tour to South Africa

    As much as Imam is a superstar I have to call you out brother...it's a myth that India won "with a ton of injuries"...their first test XI included Shaw (the 2nd coming of Tendulkar at that point), Kohli, Rahane, Pujara, Ashwin, Yadav, Bumrah, Shami, all first choice players. It's a similar...

    Pakistan tour of Australia and New Zealand 2023/24

    this was heart-breaking though, almost as close as the famous Asad Shafique test but Cummins produced a couple of blinders and Rizwan was incredibly unlucky from what I'm hearing. Just goes to show how good Pakistan could have been if they had some first choice players and a coaching staff that...

    Unpopular Cricket Opinions

    If this guy is actually serious and thinks winning a MOM award means you are a top player...boy oh boy. But just because he seems serious I'll post a bit about Emperor Babar: The Emperor has scored 50 or more in tests in 31 of the 51 games he has played so far, winning or drawing 17 of those...

    Pakistan tour of Australia and New Zealand 2023/24

    I think this is the worst year Babar has ever had. There have been hints of his usual class across both Tests and ODIs but starts have far too often been starts and not even conversions. the recent fallout from the captaincy issue, the fallout from the PCBs witch hunt aimed at Babar's sports...

    Pakistan tour of Australia and New Zealand 2023/24

    Yep! And just reviewing Australia's current attack, Hazlewood has been one of their best bowlers for over 5 years now across formats and he is essentially 130-ish in pace, Cummins is very much that these days also and Starc can obviously hit 140 but he isn't a Johnson, Pattinson or Tait type of...

    Pakistan tour of Australia and New Zealand 2023/24

    I said this even before the series started and people didn't agree...in Australia, especially in the last 13-ish years, when teams have done wel or outright won, they have done so through batting (England under Strauss and the two Indian victories...the outlier may be SA and the brilliant...

    Pakistan tour of Australia and New Zealand 2023/24

    The comparison with the 20/21 squad lol Even if we want to act like india walked in with a 3rd string squad...pakistan have a 5th string squad the. The most talented and quickest pace bowlers arent even available. I listed this already. Good night and good luck kiddos. I'll moving on to...

    I just watched the video....what the actual fudge?? An experienced pro who has played cricket in all formats across the world doesnt know a rule a 6 year old does? And when he is reminded he says "I can" and then runs straight at the ump and tries to intimidate and maybe even cause physical...

    o for my last pick...I enjoy pace, I live in the fast lane, I grew up with some of the great fast bowlers on my screen, so going with the enigmatic, one of the MVPs of 2019: Jofra "Greased Lightning" Archer 1. Gilchrist :wkb: :aus: 2. Warner :bat: :aus: 3. M. Waugh :bat::aus: 4. Ponting c...
