Re: Getting Out LBW if you struggle when the ball is coming into your leg stump. i would move your guard so your toes are on leg stump. you will get less balls on your pads, and if you do, the ball most of the time wont be going on to the stumps. hope that helps

Re: australia should adopt a specialist T20 side for it's international games Good joke

Re: England squad for South Africa tour I would argue his replacement may be broad. Broad is a better bowler than wright, he just needs to work on his batting a llittle bit, but remember freddie wasn't to flash with the bat either.

re: Australian Test XI - Selection Thread I think lee has only once taken a wicket of a no ball in test cricket. Even glenn mcgrath has so it doesn't make you a bad test bowler. So you praise siddle when he gets solid figures in one game, and bowls terrible in another and its ok because...

Re: ICC Player of the Tournament? When watson was not performing with the bat, he was bowling extremly well. He was economical and took wickets. And when the real pressure was on in the semi final and the final he performed with 2 hundreds. And they were both not out.

Re: Champions League Twenty20 2009 True, but i think one more failed series and i think he's gone. he's 34 and has had a lean 2 YEARS. Hughes stars in south africa and gets starts in 2 tests and gets dropped. And hussey fails, after fails, after fails and still stays in the team. But...

Re: ICC Champions Trophy 2009 How many test matches has hodge played??

Re: England squad for South Africa tour No doubt we have better openers. When katich go's back to NSW he's not even going to open, hughes and jacques are so that shows you how confident they are that he will perform at the top in the upcoming summer. Whereas england have no faith, They...

re: Australian Test XI - Selection Thread I remember that against south africa i think. But thats just arrogance:cool: The 2/48 of 8 was probably lee's 2nd worst performance of the series and a problem of those runs was the free hits of the no-balls. Were talking about the test side here...

re: Australian Test XI - Selection Thread And you dont find anything wrong with siddles. And this isn't just about the CT its about recent form in chosing the test side. On recent form you have to include the england 7-game series in which lee dominated compared to siddle. Siddle was only...

Re: England squad for South Africa tour True but usually only if that wicket was pietersen. When pietersen went out england go into panic mode.

Re: England squad for South Africa tour Thats where the loss of pieterson really hurts them. Pietersen usually scored lots of runs and quickly, while collingwood rotated the strike it was a near perfect combination for england. Since pietersen has been injured its made a huge gap in the...

re: Australian Test XI - Selection Thread He can put in some good performances, but he's to inconsistent. Yes, he's only young he will improve but like i have been saying i think lee should be ahead of him at the moment.

Re: Champions League Twenty20 2009 Well you might add a M.Hussey to your team shortly if he keeps his form up.

Re: Peter Siddle named emerging player of the year! Plus other award winners Hilfenhaus had a better year than siddle. Opened the attack took wickets, And was more consistent than siddle, more economical. I thought hilfenhaus had a better year than siddle

re: Australian Test XI - Selection Thread haha I've joined the bandwagon. Now we just have to convince eddiesmith. :confused:

re: Australian Test XI - Selection Thread exactly. :)

re: Australian Test XI - Selection Thread His latest injury im talking about. Even he said himself, he's more determined to be a better bowl and take his opportunties after missing the ashes, and SINCE then like i said before he hasn't let the team down. And lee adds more to the team...

Re: ICC Player of the Tournament? Shane Waston.

Re: Champions League Twenty20 2009 Good start from the vics. Its looking promising
