Marsh is a fine one day cricketer, he just should be kept 150km away from the test side at all times

Beffer posted:What's Faulkner like in first class cricket? Could he be a test all rounder? He has such a fantastic mental game that it seems to me that he should be able to handle longer matches but I don't see his name mentioned for test selection. (Instead we Maxwell for one game.)

I kind of miss having runners in cricket, it was just the most awkward solution to the problem. A guy standing at square leg, kitted out in the exact same way as the batsmen because having a hat vs a helmet is such a huge advanntage. Then the umpires trying to decide if a guy was run out even though he is 20 metres away from the stumps.

Red_Museum posted:Bit of a shame the next world cup won't have the same opportunities for a minnow upset. I wish they would keep the minnows in and just speed the schedule up a bit, is cricket so taxing on these guys that they can't play every other day or at most every three days?

When there is a tie in a form of cricket they should bust out the next tier down as the decider If you tie a test, then saddle up you are playing a one dayer, if that is a tie then a T20 and then finally a super over Faultless plan imo

Going to sit and watch this match with the book and hopefully it helps.

Cricinfo, never stop being a BCCI mouthpiecequote:Boult to Ballance, no run, big lbw shout but it isn't given by Rod Tucker. Ballance has moved too far across as Boult ones straight with the angle. McCullum has a chat with Boult, and reviews it. Just short of a length, pretty straight, Ballance has moved too far across and is caught in front. But it is bouncing over, as the replays suggest. NZ lose the review. It serves them right too because these milimetre calls is not what DRS is for

Mister Chief posted:I imagine it was a power play from the Australian, English and Indian posters aimed at seizing control of the cricket thread. The 2019 cricket thread is going to have fewer people posting in it, but somehow end up a longer thread and people will be wishing for the return of the minnow posters
