Yea well written, I'd be leading towards thinking cricket is too individual a sport to have much tactical evolution though at the same rate that football has.

The styles & trends of cricket has pretty much been the same since WW2 to be fair. Only real difference is the improvement in equipment.

He is not hugely popular but people from T&T in particular like his songs. In my opinion, Omari Banks is a better singer.

Alright, I'm confused about World Cup dates, since I'm planning to travel to Australia next Feb/March. Specifically, the India v West Indies game. Cricinfo and the ICC Travel site show this game as being on March 6th (Friday) but the World Cup site shows Thursday, March 5th.

Is this just because I'm going to the site from the US and it is (un)helpfully converting it into my timezone?

Murali Kartik has announced his retirement from cricket.. A good player who was born at the wrong time.
