Re: Australia in India What does "not a true total" mean? So what about 3/101 in reply.. practicing reverse sweeps?

Re: Australia in India I'm a little concerned that a full strength Australian side couldn't bowl out a Presidents XI for under 400.. Imagine what the Indian test team could do to the same attack.. and Lee was crap. Thank God for Stuart Clarke hey without his 3 for they would have posted 500+...

Re: The Road to the Ashes 2009 Maybe after Australia gets smashed in India there will be wholesale changes to our side, but England's test team has been pretty stable for a while now, Vaughan or no Vaughan.. If the latest results in India are anything to go by Australia seems to be on a...

Re: Krejza not intimidated by India 0/123 against an inferior XI than he will face in the test series would say otherwise.. I get the feeling that Australia are on the road to a royal smashing

Re: Trumpers cricket blog- season starts in two weeks No I'm in a lower grade agreed to play there so I could play with a few mates that are pretty clueless on the cricket field.. But if I keep averaging in the high 20's with the bat and low teens with the ball then I'd say they'll put me...

Re: Trumpers cricket blog- season starts in two weeks Second game sorry didn't post the details of the first due to a minor police incident but I'm back now and took 6/54 off 15 overs.. Bit scared that our team made ME open I'm not an opening bowler but it seems like the team is a bit weak...

Re: The Road to the Ashes 2009 I don't know.. never really rated Lee much against good sides he is normally someone that bullies flat track batsman out with pace & bounce.. I mean with a test average of 29.58 you would say on paper that he is comparable to say an Andrew Caddick and...

Re: The Road to the Ashes 2009 I think that Ponting & Hussey will be a little nervous if a fully fit Harmison, Flintoff, Sidebottom & Jones are on the England XI team sheet for the first test. I can honestly say that Australia have a significantly inferior pace attack than that given that...

Re: 6 Ashes Test? I don't think after Australia lose both in India and in the next English summer that the Board will be clamouring for a 6 test series.. This is a team in decline. Even the bookmakers are starting to take notice.

Re: Aussie Spin Rookies Bollinger is what late 20's? And sprays them a bit- bit like a poor mans Johnson (who is pretty crap too).. Surely the signs are there.. this must be the weakest side we've sent to India since the late 60's.. Without Stuart Clarke I'd say that this is the worst...

Re: Trumpers cricket blog- season starts in two weeks Yep definitely Australia.. there are thunderstorms predicted for tomorrow so don't know if the first game will go ahead yet.. Pretty nervous I must admit.. bowling ok but batting a little rusty.. I've been put in a lower grade to try and...

Re: Trumpers cricket blog- season starts in two weeks My two are belters.. No training today.. rained out

Re: Bowling Action Hey mate try and keep your head up more during the action.. with the best bowlers you find that the head remains pretty much on an even plain during the whole action.. that's why I showed you Glenn McGrath.. So keep the head still not leaned over like yours is.. keep that...

Re: Trumpers cricket blog- season starts in two weeks Training went well yesterday.. had another long net against the slower bowlers which I normally play poorly at and was driving high straight and pretty long.. And played the back foot on drive well.. my favourite shot. Bowled ok got...

Re: Scientists crack the mystery of why England is so bad at cricket I think the Scientists have it a bit wrong after 3 on the trot against the number 2 one day side

Re: Should Cricket be in the Olympics I reckon have a 20/20 tournament for the whole group stage and then for the final have a 4 day test match I think you could get through all the group stages in 5-6 days with 2 games a day then play the main event for the rest of the event (with the same...

Re: Bowling Action Keep your head still during the action.. your head falls away.. and the left arm is wonky.. chekc this out.. YouTube - Tribute to Glen Mcgrath

Re: South Africa tour England Well I'd say that England have outplayed the current side v SA.. they've made Steyne look like an amateur and Kallis look like a hack.. And the bowlers have feasted on some really crappy SA batting.. This is a ODI team on the rise.. they should have won that...

Re: Should Cricket be in the Olympics I'd like to see it.. Read the other day that when India play Pakistan in a test series the first ball of the first test is seen by more viewers than the population of Western Europe.. So how ISN'T it in the Olympics when freakshows like synchronised...

Re: Trumpers cricket blog- season starts in two weeks Cheers- hopefully it will be a bit of an insight into Australian sub-district cricket.. I'll present it warts and all.. sledging was bad last season and I'm afraid that it seems to be getting worse.. I will try & remember something my dad...
