Akram ahead of Imran Khan? That's an interesting one! For me as a complete player Imran Khan would be my choice.

Of the golden All-rounder era in the 80's I think he was the very best of them. That generation included Imran Khan, Kapil Dev, Ian Botham and Richard Hadlee so it was an amazing time.

yeah imran was a great cricketer as well but kallis fills the all rounder boots perfectly, and sobers and hadlee are no mugs with their second skill......so i thought it's better to have a fierce frontline fast bowler instead of another all rounder......

india v australia should be a good test series. australia need to show that they can be competitive away especially before they go to england for the ashes.

was watching west indies vs zimbabwe pre-match show......watching alistair campbell as the guest commentator on the tour reminded me of world cup 2003......

campbell retired just before that world cup and commentated in the first few matches of that world cup......zimbabwe needed an immediate replacement for an injured player and campbell took the spot straight from the commentary booth and played that world cup match which was to be his final match of career......

england bowled out for 167. i think they got a little overconfident. NZ didn't lie down.

[Start da Game]

england are a boring side......

chris gayle absolutely blasted a ton today smashing all the previous records in ipl.....at one point all the bowlers were afraid to bowl at him when the captain looked at them to have a bowl......

[jaredlikesbieber]

great knock from gayle. i'm enjoying the ipl at the moment and there's plenty of cricket to come including the ashes.
