The Future of Aghanistan: Cricket
Posted: March 13th, 2009, 1:00am MDT by Krishna
Via CorSullivan, we have the incredible tale of the Afghan cricket team which may qualify for the 2011 World Cup: When the British marched into Afghanistan in 1838, they brought polo mallets, fox hounds and cigars. They brought imperial hubris, bone china and cases of port. But the players of the Great Game also brought a [...]... [ Click on title to read the original article ] ...

The Paradox of Virender Sehwag
Posted: March 12th, 2009, 1:30am MDT by Krishna
It is not surprising that Sehwag broke the Indian record for the fastest century in one-day internationals. What is surprising is that he took so long to do it. The recent match between India and New Zealand was Sehwag’s 204th ODI match in his 10th year of playing one-dayers. Sehwag played his first ODI at [...]...

Reminiscences of Childhood Cricket
Posted: March 12th, 2009, 12:30am MDT by Krishna
One more in our series on street cricket, here is the “Straight Drive” blog with a post about an office cricket tournament and talks about his childhood cricket too: The match has contained all the aspects of a street cricket. Umpire was from the team which is batting. So, even the full-tosses which were going under the [...]... [ Click on title to read the original article ] ...

A Foundation for the West Indies to Build on
Posted: March 11th, 2009, 3:48am MDT by Krishna
It has been an age since the West Indies won a series against any major Test-playing nation. The decline that they encountered in the 1990s seemed to be irreversible. Even the presence of a giant like Brian Lara did nothing to reverse that trend. But today there is a spark of light that seems to [...]... [ Click on title to read the original article ] ...

So Much for a New World Order
Posted: March 10th, 2009, 2:03am MDT by Krishna
Well, it didn’t take too long on the fifth day for the South Africans to bundle the No. 1 ranking and give it back to Australia. The defeat was particularly ironic in that South Africa made the largest innings score in the match, ranking among some of the highest 4th innings scores in history. If [...]...

Can England and South Africa Still Win?
Posted: March 10th, 2009, 11:00am MDT by Krishna
Very unlikely, but if it happens, this is how it would happen. England have a lead of 82 runs scored over 15 overs. There are 90 overs on the final day. If they bat only 30 overs, then they leave the West Indians 60 overs to get what they hit in 45 overs. Enough time for [...]... [ Click on title to read the original article ] ...

How Cricket Injuries Shape Results
Posted: March 9th, 2009, 11:00am MDT by Krishna
Australia have batted South Africa out of the match and series after the 3rd day and it would take an innings of Hanif Mohammed proportions from a South African batsman to save the day. Not only does the current form of the Australian bowlers rule that out, the South Africans have to do it with [...]... [ Click on title to read the original article ] ...

The India-New Zealand Blogging Wars
Posted: March 8th, 2009, 12:52am MDT by Krishna
DeadBall and Short of a Length have been going at each other over the India-NZ series. Right now, it is kind of a wash as NZ won the T20 series handily and India is leading the one-day series 2-0. Of course, India have the momentum now, but the series could easily swing the other way. Anyway, [...]... [ Click on title to read the original article ] ...

Will SA Choke Again?
Posted: March 7th, 2009, 10:30pm MST by Krishna
As the history of SA’s World Cup difficulties show, they come ever so near the prize and then self-destruct. After managing to defeat Australia at home, all they had to do was hold their nerve against an inexperienced new Australian team at home and lay claim to the No. 1 title without anybody objecting. At [...]... [ Click on title to read the original article ] ...
