Re: World Test Championship : Performance by Team
What is clear is that almost every major tournament is going to be won by Australia, India, or England unless something drastic changes. Cricket is going to get pretty boring without stories like the Sri Lanka ODI team of the 90s or the West Indies team of the 80s.

Re: U19 World Cup | South Africa | Jan-Feb 2024
That 2004 squad was quite something.

Re: State of SA
Quite interesting to see how this Proteas squad does against New Zealand. Bowling attack actually looks quite decent so far with Dane Paterson, Duanne Olivier (remarkable to see him without a T20 contract somewhere), and Tshepo Moreki who I haven't seen before. The team has nothing to lose and all t...

Re: World Test Championship : Performance by Team
Australia were fortunate that Pakistan dropped so many catches. Just as Pakistan were in the ascendancy Abdullah Shafique would normally put one down in the slip cordon. What was hard to believe is that they kept putting him in the slip cordon, even after he had put down 3-4 easy catches.

Where is Zimbabwe's Shamar Joseph?
Shamar Joseph has really come from nowhere to put in an immense performance - you rarely see Australian batsmen so troubled. A year ago he was working as a security guard and comes from a village in the Guyanese jungle. It makes you wonder how many other guys might be out there undiscovered. Why doe...

Re: West Indies
Shamar Joseph was immense, he has truly been plucked from obscurity. A year ago he was working as a security guard. He comes a small town in Guyana which only got internet in 2018, makes you wonder why Zimbabwe can never unearth some diamond in the rough, at least on the bowling front. I truly hope ...

Re: State of SA
I've known a lot of South Africans in my time and always got along with them, plus there is a strong rugby link between NZ and SA.

Re: Drugs bans
Serious professional athletes are not using recreational drugs. This drug culture needs to be weeded out, pun intended, as fast as possible. I think drug use among athletes is actually very common, in particularly coke, you have seen top tier athletes like Cameron Munster and Brandon Smith flaunt i...

Re: U19 World Cup | South Africa | Jan-Feb 2024
The six major nations outside of the big three are actually playing more tests now that they were 10 years ago, the problem is that none of them can beat the big three at home or away anymore. South Africa was the last non-big three to regularly taste success against the big three and even they hav...
