Ljp mate he is out of form. And has battled to score runs and I think the book has basically ended his international cricket career. I suspect you might see him in the bigbash as he wants to only play the shorter competitions.

Call me ignorant but the Aussies are getting the treatment from the English batsmen at the moment. I hate saying it but Xavier Daugherty looks out of his depth.. Hauritz should be playing .. I agree with Warne on that but not on other things. Secondly the Aussie batting does not seem to be the...

I actually think it is pretty even so far. Ponting seems to have done one this morning that was rather desperate and in all honesty a waste of a referral. But I think it is great that both the English and Australian boards have embraced it.. as I believe all nations should.

The last 6 weeks have seen cricket make the front page in South Africa for all the wrong reasons. The matters that created was the printing of 2 books that made it into the public domain.I suspect that one (Herschelle Gibbs) was the main reason for his contract being terminated by mutual...

The cramp rule illustrates the beauty of the game. It needs the fielding captain to allow the batsman to have a runner. I have been critical of this in the past as cramping has been a problem that South Africa in the past. Players carrying an injury into a match should not be allowed at all in...

I think that the fact that he is putting back into the game is great.

I agree with that and as South Africa is currently playing them.. I must admit when a string of wickets fall .. I immediately think "I hope this is not a bookie thing ".. I dont think the public should ever be put in a position should question the legitimacy of events on the field..

I am in ..

Look for me there are some questions: Haider has had disciplinary problems when involved with the PCB.. so that immediately made me think about this situation in some more detail. The fact that he decides to leave the middle east and go to the UK and ask for asylum does imply the enormity of the...

From that point of view he has played a massive role.. I agree and I think his new academy (http://www.oldmutual.co.za/about-us/media-centre/press-releases-and-articles.aspx?NavID=88&ContentID=3655) might help the process.

International retirement .. not surprising as he has not featured at all in the national side. I suspect that he is hoping for an IPL contract and a stint in England. He will be available for the domestic cricket for a while me thinks. I think his timing is spot on.. a great player who ran in...

The three players that did not sign contracts with the WICB are Dwayne Bravo, Kieron Pollard and Chris Gayle. The reason why is simple, so that they can play in other countries' T20 competitions. Think back some 3 months ago Pollard made himself unavailable for a West Indies A tour so that he...

No this is classic KP. He is trying to down play down his own ability. I dont think he is losing his appetite but rather wants the media to hammer him being all down and out. He needs no motivation as he is a driven individual. I expect him to come good during the Ashes. I saw some highlights on...

Re: Rain rule method in Indian Domestic Circuit I think that most nations have tried and tested many different playing conditions with regards to rain. In South Africa certain grounds start play earlier to not be influenced by bad light. I still believe that the Duckworth Lewis is a bit better...

Re: Ashes 2010/11 Squad Announced Mas I must admit Tremlett in is a surprise. Most probably because of Sidebottoms retirement. Having watched a fair amount of England in the last few months I do believe Finn will play before Tremlett. Also one question do you think that Swann will play in all...

Mate, I am glad that you enjoyed CT and yes there is few grounds in world cricket that comes close to Newlands. Just a pity that the season only starts in a few months time as you need to experience Newlands with a crowd in and runs being scored.

Kumble to assist SA spinners Anil Kumble has been roped into help youth spin bowlers. I like the idea and I think it is great that CSA has been able to get him to work with young talent. I suspect that the sessions will be held either before the Champions League or after it. Experienced...

Champions League venues confirmed Cricket South Africa's recommended venues for this year's Champions League Twenty20 tournament have been formally accepted by the tournament organisers. Event chiefs have confirmed Wanderers Stadium in Johannesburg, St Georges Park in Port Elizabeth...

Re: Pro35 Evolution : Cricket's Newest Format I like he concept but I believe that other things need to be changed. Why is there this sudden need to change 50 over cricket. It seems that no one is even bothering about the impact for the ICC showcase called the World Cup. There should be less...
