General Cricket Discussion

I say once a batsman is in, he is in. If the bat pops up after crossing the crease, he should not be out.

Astonished ! Didn't expected S.Tait retirement.

his retirement is more than expected. He can barely bowl 4 overs, 10 is just asking too much

Sachin Tendulkar and India dominate Wisden's Test team of the year - Telegraph

Team in full: Virender Sehwag (India), Tamim Iqbal (Bangladesh), Kumar Sangakkara (Sri Lanka), Sachin Tendulkar (India), Jacques Kallis (South Africa), V. V. S. Laxman (India), *†Mahendra Singh Dhoni (India), Graeme Swann (England), Dale Steyn (South Africa), Zaheer Khan (India), James Anderson (England)

Discuss.

Watson over Tamim & that would be my team as well. Maybe Amla/Trott over Laxman also.

 

[Chewie]

Yea I wasn't too sure about Tamim either. Would have gone Cook possibly.

Laxman's probably there for his heroics with the tail in those couple of matches

 

[JD10]

Trott deserves to be there tbh ! Been IMO one of the best test batsman now.

 

[WubbaLubbaDubDub]

I would have gone too with Cook or Watson over Tamim

 

[AbhishekS]

MS Dhoni certainly doesn't deserves a place there.

 

[Cricketman]

I think he is in more as a captain than as a player tbh.

 

[Aditya]

In place of Iqbal and Sangakkara, I will have Watson and Trott. Rest of the team is good. Laxman's performance in the last 1 year has been excellent. He deserved a place in that line up in my opinion.

Really? Check this. He has scored the most runs among wicket keepers last year, add to that his captaincy. Has not lost a single test series as captain yet.

Also I would have had Watson over Tamim as well.

If McCullum had kept the gloves for the whole year he would be topping that list

758 runs at 75.8 from 6 matches

Was just about to say that. It's a shame because his test match statistics have started to look pretty decent. I would have Cook in the eleven anyway. His ashes was in a word..epic.

Apparently Zulqarnain Haider has wished to comeback to Pakistan and has withdrawn the asylum application. It may have to do with ouster of Kamran Akmal. Haider has sniffed a chance of getting back into the team.
