An idea shamelessly stolen from CW. I missed out on the sign-up over there, so thought I'd start one up here. As opposed to the normal, conventional draft where you're open to pick anyone from any country, this draft involves picking a player from 1 specific country per round. So as a basic...

There have been talks ever since Chris's elbow injuries that he has been past his best and coming to the end of his International career. He had a fairly disappointing 2007 World Cup and had started to struggle getting through the 90's. However, since that World Cup Chris's stats have been...

WTF is with the sudden influx of these comparison threads? I've not really been active on these forums for the last couple of weeks, and I come back to read the forums this evening and the Cricket Discussion section is flooded with comparison after comparison. They can be somewhat interesting...

Here's the first post of my new story. It's a UFC based story, and is being played on GreyDog Software's WMMA2. Hope you enjoy it.

Just thought I'd make a little thread, firstly to dedicate my love to Andy Bernard from The American Office, and also to mention that A Night at The Office is on on Sunday evening. It's basically a re-showing of 6 Office episodes with fans of the show and Gerv and Smerch chatting about it. Going...

Just wondering how everyone rates Andrew Strauss? He started off his career ridiculously well, had a quite sustained spell of poor form in the middle section of his career, but has since regained his best form and is scoring big runs again. He's only really had 3 poor 'seasons' if we're going by...

That is all.

Another example of the flawed ICC Rankings system. Younis Khan got to number 1 after 1 Test after a year a little while ago, and now Yousuf has done the same. Shiv Chanderpaul, Gautam Gambhir and Kumar Sangakkara are all far more deserving of the #1 spot, they've been consistently brilliantly...

Been watching this on TV recently, and man there have been some awesome performances already. The line-up's frigging awesome: Glastonbury Festival 2009 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia I am so going next year. Not been to a festival before, and really wanna go to one, and Glastonbury's...

I wouldn't read anything into this match really. Sussex have put out a very weak side, and Australia haven't really needed to show any form. If Chawla, Collymore, Lewry and Smith had been playing, then Sussex could actually have caused a real upset. The top order batted woefully against a very...

Thought I'd start a thread like this, seeing as we've got one for ICC, and now that CC is genuinely playable and good we can actually get somewhere on the game. I started a new save as England today, as you have to with the new update, and I have to say, I've started pretty well. First Test...

An idea shamelessly stolen from CW, but meh. If you could pick a Twenty20 Squad that included players from any era of the game, irrespective of whether they've played T20 or not, who would you pick? 1. Matthew Hayden 2. Barry Richards 3. Sir Vivian Richards 4. Andrew Symonds 5. Sir Garfield...

Right, remember that TV show Wheel of Fortune? Well, this is Wickets of Fortune; where we talk about bowlers who have built a career out of getting fortutous wickets, or just had 1 particular match where they got a few Wickets of Fortune. It can be constantly getting wickets from wide balls, or...

Discovered this the other day and signed up, and it's surprisingly good fun. I've not been using it long, so I've not made many updates, but I've got started. I'm following a few people and it's good fun, especially now that I can follow Matt Pritchard's Gumball Rally progress =D Anyone else on...

This is something that I've been thinking about for a while, but this season the need for changes have really become evident. Our County System has 18 Counties, split into 2 divisions. In the 1st Division the standard of cricket is generally very good, but most sides in the 2nd Division are to...

A few of my faves: Really cool artwork I think, especially the 3rd picture that I've IMG tagged in this thread. I really like the concept and some of the artwork's been really well done. When Michael came out in the press and said he's hit loads of balls over the winter to get...

The Roster: Heavyweight Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira Brock Lesnar Frank Mir Brandon Vera Gabriel Gonzaga Cain Velasquez Cheick Kongo Eddie Sanchez Heath Herring Andrei Arlovski Mirko Crocop Fabricio Werdum Tim Sylvia Mark Coleman Antoni Hardonk Justin McCully Light Heavyweight...

Ben pointed out to me on MSN yesterday that Ouwwolpack had "made his mark on Cricket Discussion" and I was expecting it to be a stupid post, but turned out that he'd posted in every single thread that had been created since the forums were created. He'd posted in every domestic cricket thread...

My Dislike XI Jason Gallian- Just an absolute tool of a man. He may play for Essex, but I dislike him. Mainly for incidents involving KP, where Gallian, who was the Notts captain at the time threw all of KP's gear off the Trent Bridge balcony because he didn't like KP. What a twat. Dinesh...

George Headley is one of the West Indies greatest players. Regarded by everyone outside the Caribbean as the 'Black Bradman', but within the Carribbean Bradman was regarded as the 'White Headley'. But how good was George Headley? Headley's Test career started in 1930, but Headley had already...
