Re: India cricket fever
Don't think so, didn't Vishvanathan Annand win sportsman of the year or something after winning the international chess championships?
Sorry for spelling his name wrong.
Re: Elbowing Watson 'wasn't deliberate' - Gambhir
Don't know if you can swear on here, edit it just in case. He didn't need to start a verbal battle, but I've always been taught hit only after the other guy hits you ~its self defence then, he didn't touch Gambhir so, Gambhir had no reason to...

Re: Elbowing Watson 'wasn't deliberate' - Gambhir
Really? ;)
Watson carried on like a goose, not the smartest thing to do when your getting hammered. However Gambhir should not of reacted by elbowing him, in that Watson's twice his size. I would suggest Watson shut up, and Gambhir take...
Re: Knicking the Ball
Swing harder, the harder you swing the faster the edges go, the less chance you get caught out. :p
Nah, its just a concentration issue in most cases as said before. I've always found practising shots before the match helpful in avoiding edges as it gets you into the...
Re: Australia in India
2/154 Tendulkar and Gambhir are still going strong.
White is not a good spinner he his technically flawed and we saw what happened last test with the Aussie batting order. I would have gambled on Krezja even if he might get hammered, the pitch is supposedly a spinners...
Re: Whats the fastest you have faced?
We cranked up the bowling machine as fast as it could go and tried to play against it. Needless to say we were backing away quite frequently. I agree with the posts that say facing a machine is hard, its near impossible to get ready for the ball.
Other...

Re: Muck up Day officially Banned in Ballarat
They banned muck up day in my school years ago, ever since cars got egged and the year12's back then put flour on the fans and stuff like that.
When I finished, they took us on an excursion on the last day of school, so as not to tempt faith...

Re: Should KUMBLE retire after AUTRALIA series
Sorry about going off topic.
Yeah he probably would have taken more wickets. Looking back on his career he had a long and successful one, where he adapted to whatever a batsmen could throw at him. There is no reason to doubt that he could...
Re: Australia in India
Australia's all out for 268, and India 0/69 in the 16th over. At the moment India's probably going to win. Unless Australia can stay in on the fourth and fifth days when they get sent in.
Edit: 20th post

Re: Anthropology
I just have an idea don't put too much stock in my words buts lets see:
1. We play sports for a variety of reasons, for enjoyment, for money (elite sportsmen), for exercise...
2. Males predominantly play sport because it was historically a "male" profession/hobby. The...
Re: 20-20 Or ODI
20/20 all the way.
I enjoy both forms of the game. However I find that most 20/20's are far more more entertaining than 50 over games when one side is weaker than an other. With Australian dominance over this form of the game through out the the last decade I've got to say...
