    https://www.smh.com.au/sport/cricket/not-what-it-seams-a-brief-history-of-ball-tampering-20180325-p4z645.html In the current atmosphere of the worst sort of cheating (pre-meditated) the whole ball tampering issue has some history. The link is to a list of recent issues but really is it the end...

    Ryan Harris Retires

    I suppose it was coming but the timing is unfortunate for him. A very good fast bowler that i am sure would have been one of the greats had constant injury not held him back. All the best in the future Ryno...

    http://www.cricket.com.au/news/michael-clarke-retires-odi-one-day-cricket-world-cup-final-australia-new-zealand/2015-03-28 Well it was inevitable, Clarke has had a rush of common sense and realised if he is to do anything useful in Test Cricket he has to give away ODI's. There is no secret...

    Narayanaswami Srinivasan New Icc Chairman

    Narayanaswami Srinivasan has been put at the head of the new Reich of world Cricket. This has just about taken every last drop of respect that the ICC had. Really this is a joke, World cricket now run by the big three and headed by the big joke. I fear for some really painful years of corruption...

    Swann Retires

    I am surprised, really thought Swann would be there for the next home series. He is not so old especially for a spin bowler and could have been a very important player in the next faze of English cricket. Never mind, Swann you were great and will be missed...

    Fawad Ahmed

    So Ahmed has been bought into the one day team. There has been some silly talk from some quarters in regards to his wish to not where the VB logo and his fast tracking. The sad comments from Walters and Campese shed a poor light on our sporting culture. I agree that his fast tracking to...

    Champions Trophy 2013

    http://www.icc-cricket.com/championstrophy Well the warm up matches have begun and some reasonable cricket is shaping up. India chased 333 and Australia knocked off 257 with more than 10 overs to go. Watson was in touch which may well be good news for the Aussies.

    Pakistan V England

    I can not believe this series has attracted so little attention here. It is important in the terms of test cricket and even more so with the Pakistan team giving England a cricket lesson over three tests. Tonight is day three of the third test with Pakistan 2/222 at stumps on day two in their...

    What Now For Test Cricket

    The future of Test cricket seems yet again to be on shaky ground. Of the Test playing nations you would have to say that only Australia and England seem to have crowd support and probably South Africa and New Zealand are the only other countries that take it seriously. As a sign of just how...

    The Third Test

    It is only day one, but some how we seem to have managed to dig ourselves a hole. The real issue is the failure of the top order again. If ever there was a moment to prove one's self it was now. So what happens now, do we blame the bowlers when they struggle to defend a poor total? I for one...
