Just like Matthew Hayden.

Root relieved to break his century drought

Bit of a straw man, I think, David; nobody has suggested that Jimmy is a great bowler, only that he’s pretty good in helpful conditions.

Personally, I’d take Marshall over any other quick of the last 50 years. Maybe the last 150 years.

Anderson might be the most successful, but he's not the best I've seen

No love for Buttler?

Kane Williamson must be the IPL's MVP

10/10!!

Elite mateship: The answer to our prayers

It’s wonderful, but how? Do they play in the Pakistan leagues? Do their players play around the world?

It’s a bigger mystery even than Steve Smith being so good!

Afghanistan cricket is on the way up

What’s needed, Bill, is some daring thinking. Why not set up a brand new competition where each team bowls 15 six-ball overs plus a final 10-ball over which can be delivered by up to three bowlers! That’ll get the punters in, plus it will have absolutely no effect on your test players. And even if it did, who cares?

How an expanded BBL threatens Australian cricket

I think you slotted him, Spiro!

And who would you rather read or hear: Jim Maxwell and John Arlott or “Tubs”, “Slats” and “Both”?

The Baggy Green Caps need to use the mantra: 'What would Richie say?'

As for point five, we could just mandate the use of Duke balls in all matches.

How’s this for forward thinking on ball tampering?

Scott, is Hazelwood’s “lack of luck” due to him bowling too short maybe? It’s been a perennial problem for English swing bowlers going back to the days of Mike Hendricks.

Edmonds and Emburey used to do that all the time for England!

Damn! I was just about to say Good for him!

Shane Watson lands new job as ICC umpire

So you’ve been reading Steve Waugh’s comments as well?

The crucifixion game

Tee hee.

The crucifixion game

Well said. This is a chance for Australia to lead the way out of this tactic of abuse. Just please, please, without the lectures this time!

Steve Waugh ruined cricket. Sledging is the real cheating

A lot of England fans were saying that changes were needed before the game against Scotland, but Eddie just kept picking the same team. Time for him to learn lessons.

Ireland grand slam the Six Nations

And One hand one bounce just for my England team!

Eden Park run-fest did cricket no favours

Dammit, Dane! You’re making me nostalgic!

This T20 tri-series isn't like the tri-series I know

Actually, if you drop Smith, you could pick Maxwell. A twofer!

Gabba: What the hell were the Australian selectors thinking?

You’re a very naughty boy!

Gabba: What the hell were the Australian selectors thinking?

Or squash? Or badminton? Chess?

For crying out loud, it is time tennis turned the sound down

He’s well balanced, that’s for sure!

Australia vs England: Second ODI preview and prediction

Please link to England fans crowing. I haven’t heard or seen any yet.

Wind your necks in, England; you didn't deserve to beat the Wallabies

And, sadly, English bowlers!

Steve Smith is in a form trough ahead of Ashes

The only one I feel sorry for here is Mankad. Traduced for ever.

Salman the sportsman? Am I missing something?
