South Africa 6/1 for World T20. I know it is in totally different conditions with different pitches but that is a value bet for me.

They always flatter to deceive

No doubt they will find a way to mess up

I think they have strength in depth this time around. Put my money where my mouth is though and backed them.

fastest ever test hundred for mccullum in his final test

if nothing else he will have gone out on top

this has been fun to watch
A great entertainer

What an incredible innings - only just read about it on this thread.

Only 54 balls - that will really take some beating in years to come!
If this gets beat it will not be a number 5 coming in at 22 for 3

What a waste of time that was by the umpires referring an obvious bump ball unless it was an excuse to get all the advertisers' logo's on the big screen......
Poor umpires, Sometimes they just guess and sometimes they can't make a decision. Unable to spot foot faults either.

I no it's been done to death but KP should be in this T20 Side, Jason Roy just isn't good enough at international level and KP can do to teams what ABDV did to us today

Finn is missed in the bowling line up and dropping a bowler for a batsmen today was a massive mistake to make

You mentioned Geoff Boycott. To my mind, they were both international cricketers

NZ did well to wrap up the tail and give themselves a squeak of a chance still in this game, got the last 6 wickets for just 60odd runs

voges had a rare failure only scoring 60

Wrong again. You mentioned him in post 1066, I mentioned him in post 1068. But I am going to follow suit with so many on here now and add you to the blocked list. Fed up of your incredible arrogance

Australia heading for a big fine there questioning the umpire when the 3rd umpire gave a correct decision of not out no need to hound the umpire swearing at him he did his job correctly there , that behaviour needs stamping out

Absolutely. well they better get a big fine. Both Hazlewood for what he said and also time to punish Smith to let it be known its his responsibility as captain. The aussies at the moment really do behave like spoilt brats when decisions dont go their way. And for me it does come from Smith who is very immature at times on a cricket field, so on the basis he'll be probably be the captain for many more years then we've got to put up with this for a long while too.

Pace bowler Steven Finn has been ruled out of England's ICC World Twenty20 squad and replaced by Liam Plunkett.

Finn, 26, was forced out of England's tour of South Africa in January with a side strain, but has withdrawn from the upcoming tournament in India with a left calf problem.

Plunkett, 30, was in the England party for the T20 leg of the South Africa tour, but did not play in either game.

The selection/playing policy is confusing to say the least..

Again I was responding to a post by Dave the cue.

You having a Blocked List says more about you than me.

This could get interesting

Giles Clarke the ECB president, faces the prospect of being called to appear before the Culture Media and Sport Select Committee, to explain his role in the controversial ICC structural reforms of February 2014, in which the boards of England, India and Australia seized control of the sport's finances.
