Re: Logan Cup (Eagles v Tuskers Rhinos v Mountaineers)

For what it's worth, statistically, Hamilton Masakadza is the first to 5000 runs in the Logan Cup. He always seems to play Logan Cup when not on international duties, unlike some others.

Re: Australia tour of India

I don't mean to blame one player for the loss, but if Australia's Chigumbura gets selected again in tests, I may jump ship. Khawaja isn't selected because of failures against spin in Sri Lanka. Yet this knob has now played 21 tests & doesn't have the technique to cope with what's dished up. Hilton C...

Re: Bangladesh Watch 2015-2019

With these young players doing well domestically, it's so important to keep them relevant. This is where 'A' tours become invaluable during the off season. Situations where it is tough for new kids to get in- just what selectors want! Keep the old guard on their toes because some newbie is right her...

Re: Bangladesh Watch 2015-2019

Tushar Imran is correct. He's in fine format this stage of his career. Soumya Sarkar IS an opener! Crickey! A lot of trust in him for one who has hit only one century in 42 first class games at 28. I feel both he & Sabbir Rahman would benefit from an 'A' tour ( here I go again) where they would be c...

Re: Bangladesh Watch 2015-2019

Bangladesh will play its 100th test during this tour of Srl Lanka. Congratulations! Perhaps everyone is bullish because they believe the players will rally behind such a momentous occasion. But as Zimbabwe found, if you take Sri Lanka lightly, they will bite. Herath is as cunning as ever. Dilruwan P...

Re: Hilton Cartwright to make Test Debut for Australia

Think of a spinner who set a record of sorts on debut

Re: Hilton Cartwright to make Test Debut for Australia

He was obviously selected to be the next great trivia question in 10-20 years time. We already know the answer to "How many spinners played for Aussie in the time after Warne retired up until Lyon became first choice"? Or "Name the 3 leg spinners taken by Australia on the 1972/73 tour of the West In...
