Just for giggles, does anyone want to guess which countries 'A' team has played most matches? And which two countries have contested the most 'A' team "tests"? Spoiler: India is not involved in either answer. Also, after India & NZ played the test championship final last year, The Cricketer magazine...

You’ve touched an area I’m interested in. And have recently been collating stats, since nothing else appears to be available. Anyway, you’re right. India A has never previously toured Bangladesh. Bangla A did tour India in 2015/16 for one “test”, won by India by an innings & 3 ODIs (2-1 India). This...

I'll have my annual rant about the lack of development in the Zimbabwe system. Particularly with spin. So many comments about Wellington's this & Mavuta's that & the test side will have to rely on Raza & Burl. Read a cricinfo article about Rehan Ahmed being selected in the full England squad for Pak...

I've never heard of Akeem. Has he played international cricket?

No. He mostly plays limited over stuff. He has played for West Indies A in this format.
Seems to be stuck behind several others in the Barbados fast bowling production line.

I offer my congratulations to you for your victory. You guys must be still pinching yourselves to check if it's all real. This result makes a mockery of any CA decision not to host countries they deem as unsuitable as they are not economical.. (such as the cancelled Bangladesh tour a couple of years...

I want to offer my congratulations to the faithful Zim supporters & your team with these recent successes. I note I joined the forum in 2008, just before the long awaited domestic franchise system. So much hope has been posted & much disappointment has been delivered in this time. But the outpouring...

Re: Dave Houghton Head Coach Unread post by Googly » Sat Jun 25, 2022 1:01 pm There's a crazy stat. The last West Indian opener to get a test 100 other than Braithwaite was Chris Gayle in 2013 and against Zim. Top Apologies for this being in the wrong forum but before Gayle was Kieran Powell & his l...

It may be said Roach is the one who started Ricky Ponting’s batting decline. He bounced Ponting who was beaten for pace & ended up wearing it on the noggin. He’s obviously lost pace now but cricinfo has an article on his recent stats & they are impressive. Windies touring Australia this summer appar...

It's a shame Mossadek Hossain's batting average drop from above 40 to below 30. He'll be a scapegoat for the 24-5 & 23-4 starts. He was batting at 7. So, I also read Domingo's comments & he stated that they were looking for Mossadek to be able to bowl around 15 overs in an innings. I knew he could r...

Shakib has COVID. Out for the 1st Test. This guy always finds a way to miss Test matches (obviously can't control getting sick). But last time it was because his family got sick. I'm sure he will recover in time for the 2nd Test, but by then I'm sure someone will accidentally get a paper cut from op...
