Hopefully we could find someone willing to do that.

Our batsman are playing shots to balls they don't need to. It is a test match, respect the good balls and punish the bad ones. You would have to think Twenty20 and One Day cricket has an influence on batsman. The Australian batsman should have come out with a point to prove after a 19 year old...

You raise some good points. I also would volunteer to write articles when needed. Maybe people could write articles in different areas, so people would write about cricket in general. We wouldn't be able to publish different articles everyday but I am sure we could manage a few a week. Focusing...

Ashton Agar will make 200 and we will win. :p

Some early wickets in the morning and we get the best part of 2 days to bat. It would be very difficult for our batsmen to chase down the runs but anything can happen in cricket.

Ashton Agar is spinning the ball more this innings. He is picking up wickets as a result. Australia just need to keep patient and take their chances. The Aussie bowlers have taken wickets when they have needed to.

His throws the ball up there and gets flight. He hasn't got a lot of turn but in the next couple of days the pitch might turn more. His bowling will improve as he gains confidence and he should have a lot of that now. He has the potential to be a very dangerous bowler in the next few years.

Everyone get around Ashton Agar! He has scored the most amount of runs of any Australian number 11 batsman. Agar needs to open the innings for Australia!

The Ashes are a day away here in Australia. Darren Lehmann seems focused on getting Australia to play attacking cricket, I like this tactic a lot. Instead of worrying about the players England have, we can take the attack to them. How many runs we will score depend on players like Shane...

BigFooty has a section on news so has there been any thought on BigCricket introducing the same kind of thing? Obviously the articles would be cricket related. Users on this forum could create their own articles. This could encourage more people to join BigCricket.

Yeah I know. I replied to his post because it mentioned David Warner and I could give my opinion on Ed Cowan as well. That is just my opinion though, Cowan may end up getting selected for the first test.

Now that Shane Watson and Chris Rogers are opening the batting, I see no place for Ed Cowan. Phil Hughes and Usman Khawaja have preformed better than him in the practice matches and have a lot more potential. As you said he often makes starts but finals to turn them into big scores, an opening...

I am looking forward to watching the Australians play England in the Ashes. Darren Lehmann will face the biggest challenge of his coaching career the Ashes first up, that is no easy start for a coach. He will have to make sure the players are ready and work together with Clarke. We have played 2...

Cricket season is only a couple of months away for me. I wondering what things I could do to help improve my fitness for cricket? I have some weights and a exercise bike down stairs. Will using these things help me at all? I am 15, 16 this year. Any advice would be appreciated. Edit: Was...

The decision to move Watson to the top of the order has paid off so far with Watson making 90 against Somerset and 109 against Worcester. Hopefully Watson carries this form through to the Ashes.

I believe Mickey Arthur's job has been in danger for sometime. This was really highlighted by Australia's disappointing performance in India. Arthur dropping players over the whole homework saga did nothing to help his cause. The final straw must have been the Champions Trophy which was a poor...

Warner will not get to play a proper game of cricket in the lead up to the Ashes and other batsman like Rogers, Cowan, Hughes and Watson will get a chance to go ahead of him in the pecking order. That is a harsh but fair punishment, the Ashes are what Australian cricketers all dream about. Now...

Ed Cowan gone. LBW for 9 bowled by Kumar. Top order needs to do better then this. Steve Smith now in. Hughes and Smith need to make runs or Australia are in danger of a batting collapse. Hughes is 24 not out and Smith is 1 not out.

Australia dismiss India for 499 in their first innings. Siddle got the wicket of Sharma for a duck. Siddle finishes with bowling figures of 4/71 bowling 9 maidens. Siddle was the pick of the Australian bowlers. Henriques picked up Kumar for 18 edging to Haddin for his first wicket of the match...

Good fight back by Australia in Day 4 of the Test match, at Tea. Siddle and Starc are both bowling well. Siddle has bowling figures of 3/67 with 8 maidens. Starc picked up the important wicket of Vijay and has bowling figures of 2/74 including 5 maidens. Lyon has been expensive but removed...
