I think overall I would agree with that 11. I think perhaps Michael Clarke and Andrew Strauss may have deserved a place but its difficult to choose who to drop, perhaps Langer and Ponting? Overall though I don't think there can be many complaints.

To be honest I think it will be a great series but I don't think English players or supporters should even be focusing on India at the moment. We have a tough series ahead of us against Pakistan first and after that we will have a better indication of how we will fair against India.

9/10, wish it told me what I got wrong though.

Pakistan: I think Pakistan have some excellent players but overall I feel England will be too strong for them and will win the test series, the one dayers I think it will be very close. India: Well although the entire forum barring english people think we don't have a chance against...

I'll give Vaughany a ring then and tell him we've decided on Durston. :) Either that or bring Tuffnel back lol

I could be wrong but isn't Keedy in his thirties now, he is a possibility I guess but kind of a backward step, never going to replace Giles unless he gets injured. I like the looks of Durston too. Lets be honest England are not going to play two spinners because they simply don't have the...

Xanadu was the place in Citizen Kane I think.... could be wrong though erection

Following on from ZexyZahid's comment about the squad I guess the obvious choices are 1. Strauss 2. Trescothick 3. Vaughan 4. Bell 5. Pietersen 6. Flintoff 7. G. Jones 8. Giles 9. Hoggard 10. Harmison 11. S. Jones Then probably I would expect to see go 12. Collingwood 13...

Pretty damn quick, I've no idea if I've ever beaten it or come close but I'll now be on the lookout!! Well done!

Yes that's a very good point and I think an apology is deserved.

Think of us poor people playing the playstation versions who can't patch anything!!

I agree with you and I'm hoping it won't. I don't think it would ever go that far but then you never know, it all has so start somewhere and lets just hope this is not it.

It wasn't meant to hold water, that's why I added the bit at the end 'both comments are as true as each other'. I agree with you that Flintoff back then is not as good as McGrath now so it was probably a bigger blow to lose McGrath. I'm just trying to say that people cannot simply say they...

I think there is a good chance Butcher will tour to Pakistan. Yes he is getting older now but I think he could add some steel and experience to the middle order especially with the likes of Hussain and Thorpe now gone. I would still pick Bell because it would be unfair to drop him after one...

As far as I know nobody is even close to creating an editor for ICC 2005. I could be wrong, anyone know of an editor?

I still find bowling really hard in the game, I've been playing test matches against Australia with England on county level. I usually manage to get Langer out fairly easily for under 30 or so, usually bowl him withn late swing. Hayden though is a big problem, I got him out on 99 in the...

They 'Sold Out' , end of story. ECB are right, cricket is becoming the new football.....

Hmm... Bowling Options: Caddick was definitely considered, I didn't hear anything about Cork, surely not? He's not even bowling that well for Lancashire or that regularly from what I've seen. Caddick or Gough or I guess Cork wouldn't have been that bad a choice, they have experience, they...

I don't think you can do one. I've tried it in a match countless times and never pulled it off. I then tried going in the nets and batting as Lara, Tendulkar, Dravid, Thorpe etc and had a spinner bowl at me full or on a good length and kept trying what might be a sweep (E.g. diagonally or...

It's not like football or rugby when it can be shown in pubs because cricket is still not popular enough to market a 5 day test match in a pub, especially if it is an away series which is on in the early hours of the morning. This means that you need to subscribe to sky at home if you wish to...
