Sarwan, the new West Indies cricket captain

Sarwan , a true great West Indies cricket player deserves the captaincy

Sarwan is one of my favorite cricket players and definitely deserves the West Indies cricket captaincy. Ever so often, we find Sarwan holding the fort with the number eleven batsman in the West Indies cricket team, trying to match of it

Sarwan ,the West Indies cricket captain,seems to have a cool head on his shoulders

Sarwan has been provoked many times his West Indies cricket career,most of all by McGrath. McGrath definitely crossed the line that day, in his "discussion" with Sarwan, the cool head of West Indies cricket.

Only Sarwan's niceness in the West Indies cricket team saved the day when an ugly brawl was in in the offing due to McGrath's sick comments

In summary, Sarwan leads a talented West Indies cricket team,who may yet emerge from Lara's shadow

Australian cricket on the decline?

Australian cricket team on the decline?

The Australian cricket team has lost the number 1 position in world cricket. Recently, the Australian cricket team has lost three consecutive one day international cricket matches to the England cricket team and two one day international cricket matches to the New Zealand cricket team

Australian cricket team has too many old players?

Suggesting that the Australian cricket team has too many oldies is the most ridiculous argument for the reasons the Australian cricket team is on the decline

The Australian cricket team should take succour in the return and success of Ganguly and other so-called old guys in the Indian cricket team. The Australian cricket board knows that there is no substitute to a winning cricket combination and it would be stupid to remove the few
"old" (read: experienced ) players left in the Australia

The Australian cricket team misses Warne,Martyn and a super fit McGrath

The Australian cricket team obviously misses Warne and Martyn,but what the Australian cricket team really misses is a really fit McGrath to inspire fear in the opposition batsmen.While McGrath is set to play his last cricket series in the cricket World cup for the Australian cricket team, McGrath needs to bowl with the same old venom- glimpses of which were seen in the recent Ashes cricket test series

In summary, the Australian cricket team may be on the decline,but has the mental strength to bounce back in the cricket world cup

Pakistan cricket team make a blunder by not including Akhtar

The Pakistan cricket team needs to play Shoaib Akhtar and Mohammed Asif together

The Pakistan cricket team has made a blunder by not including Shoaib Akhtar in the cricket series against South Africa. Shoaib Akhtar serves as the perfect foil for Mohammed Asif, the pace of Shoaib Akhtar and the guile of Asif is the perfect combination for the Pakistan cricket team.

The Pakistan cricket team selectors should have known that fast bowlers attack in packs

Fast bowlers all over the world have bowled in tandem-Dennis Lillee and Thomson, Brett Lee and McGrath,Michael Holding and Andy Roberts,Imran Khan and Safraz Nawaz. Mohammed Asif and Shoaib Akhtar can form that great combination, if once they are given a chance together in the Pakistan cricket team

The Pakistan cricket team may still win if Yousuf Mohammed can make it for the remaining tests against South Africa

Among all the batsmen of the Pakistan cricket team,Yousuf Mohammed is by far the most compact of batsmen. In fact,in his current form, Yousuf Mohammed is probably the best batsman in the world. If Yousuf plays in the last two tests of this Pakistan Vs South Africa test series, the Pakistan cricket team have some chance of winning the series,which will be closely fought

Ashes 2006 won by Australia-as predicted by GameCricket.com

The Ashes cricket test series has been won by Australia-The Ashes test series score is 4-0 so far and will probably get to 5-0 in favor of Australia.

You should have read GameCricket.com's prediction of the Ashes cricket series,2006 - You wouldnt have then been surprised at the performance of the Australian cricket team against England.

Why exactly did England lose the Ashes cricket series against Australia?

• Ashes Loss reason 1 :

  The Stresscothick incident: Threscothick was England's best opening batsman for the Ashes cricket series against Australia- To come to Australia for the Ashes cricket series and then decide not to play was most unprofessional of Threscothick,irrespective of his personal problems. I dont call for being jingoistic,but citing personal problems while the England cricket team is fighting one of its biggest battles against Australia reeks of not having any national pride.

• Ashes Loss reason 2:

  Inept team selection and captaincy by Flintoff: There is a lot of criticism for Fletcher in the Ashes cricket series-but the person who has to cop the blame is always the captain - Mr. Freddie Flintoff. Not selecting Panesar for the first two tests against Australia in the Ashes cricket series reeked of a really flawed selection policy.Even in the fourth Ashes test,Flintoff obviously has a very low opinion of Panesar's bowling and gave him just 12 overs in Australia's 300+ run assault.

• Ashes Loss reason 3:

  The loss of confidence for Harmison: Harmison at his best is probably one of the best bowlers in world cricket- the images that we always remember are those of Harmison bouncing the cricket ball into the ribs of the Aussie batsmen in the 2005 Ashes cricket series. In the current Ashes 2006 in Australia,Harmison has been a shadow of his former self and seemed to be scared to put the cricket ball close to the Aussie batsmen

The good news for the England cricket team after the Ashes cricket series 2006:

The retirement of Shane Warne and McGrath is the best cricket news that England have heard for a really long time. With young players like Bell and Panesar in the team,England should hopefully have a better time in the next Ashes cricket series :-)
