I thought the idea was to figure out which players would do the best and thus win points for your team, regardless of their original team.

In a Bangladesh-Australia series, how many Bangladesh players will you choose? :)

Neither were last balls :).... Sharma's trumps all.

Sharjah 1986, last ball from Chetan Sharma to Miandad. Rank high full toss on leg-stump blasted away for six to win Pakistan the match. Couldnt have turned out a better delivery... for Pakistan :)

Hey guys just a suggestion, a series in which Hinds, Gayle, Afridi, Shoaib Malik, Razzaq and the two Dwaynes are featuring, maybe we should think about having more than two places for all-rounders? Could cut back on a bowler actually since most of them are at best average-to-good only.

And that is a bad thing.... why???

Brian Lara rested for the ODIs against Pakistan! Not on Cricinfo yet, but I found this on Yahoo. http://uk.sports.yahoo.com/050516/3/ay5a.html West Indies omit Lara from one-day series against Pakistan Mon 16 May, 10:42 PM ST. JOHN'S, Antigua (AFP) - The West Indies have omitted...

The question was not "Who got hit by lightning along with Merv Dillon?". Read the thread again.

Fine, but there is a limit to how low you can go. For me, that limit is 25 overs. Like I said before, if weather only permits a five over a side game, would you play that???

You can bet your life I will be quoting you when we finally do find out how badly Cricket 2005 sucks. And I am not saying IF, I am saying WHEN we find out. :)

Before Twenty20 came along, and before they changed the rules to say that 20 over games are also ODIs, what happened then? If there was rain and 25 overs a side could not be bowled, then the whole game for that day was called off. In your example, the series would have been spoiled anyways with...

My point being, the ICC should change the rules. If there is a point where a full ODI is not being completed, meaning a minimum of twenty five overs not twenty, then it should be a twenty20 game instead. They probably changed the rules to accomodate the 20 overs for a full ODI before Twenty20...

Ok thanks. With the advent of Twenty20 now I dont see the point however of playing 20 over ODIs. Why not just play with the Twenty20 rules?

Correct me if I am wrong but didnt you have to be able to play 25 overs each side for it to be called a full international?

Pakistan 366/7 in 50 overs in the warm-up match at Antigua. Afridi (who else??) 106 in 46 balls.

First of all that is not proof, look in a dictionary what proof means. Secondly, its not even true. India was never losing 2-0 in Pakistan. In the five match series it was 1-0 to India after the first game, then 1-1, Pakistan won the third to go 2-1 up, India won the last two to win 3-2. Get...

Dont play anymore but when I did I was very particular about only one thing... when I batted I ALWAYS tried not to get out. Spoiled the batting if I did.

Thankyou. I had a problem with DeLonge's blanket condemnation of the whole Pakistan team like that too, but didnt want to sound like I was just blabbering. He did not really explain what he meant by that statement.

And I for one want to keep on beating him up for these stupid statements... so Gov, you are saying that only if next time India BEATS Pakistan, then justice will be served? How do you even bring "JUSTICE" up in this? How was being beaten by a better team (WHICH YOU ADMIT) make it unjust...

Better team? What, are you kidding me? Like Australia is on top of the world because they are so...... "talented"??? You know very well the 2003 WC Final was also fixed. How else can India, who won all the other matches so easily, do so badly in the final? They were paid to bowl badly to...
