  3. 2011 has been Pakistan's Year!

    Well Pitched &bull Dec 13, 2011

    With all One Day International obligations for the year 2011 over now, it is a good time to take a look back at the year that was and how the teams and players fared in ODIs during the year. A total of 146 ODIs were played during the year, a number that is significantly inflated due to the ICC World Cup. But that high number also means that we got to see various remarkable performances from the likes of Virender Sehwag, Shane Watson, Mohammad Hafeez, Lasith Malinga, and Shahid Afridi… Full Story »

    Cricket News on The Independent &bull Dec 13, 2011

    Note: We do not store your email address(es) but your IP address will be logged to prevent abuse of this feature. For a game that is dead on its feet, Test cricket is doing a magnificent impression of being in the rudest health. When New Zealand defeated Australia by seven runs in Tasmania yesterday, it was the fourth electrifying contest in a month, the third in which all four results were possible going down to the wire. In such circumstances, it is difficult to know what can be done to rescue the grandest sporting spectacle on the planet. It may… Full Story »

  10. The Final Over of the Week in World Cricket December 4 2011

    99.94 &bull Dec 4, 2011

    Ball One - One of the pleasures of researching this column is stumbling across snippets in the backwaters of cricket that only the all-seeing eye of the web can reveal. Wondering whether Theunis de Bruyn was any relation of solid pro Zander, I came across a Bradmanesque run of scores. The young Saffer's innings over the last month for Northerns Under-19s read - 101, 32, 7, 48, 109, 169, 93, 81 and 139. A man on the move. Ball Two - After India's much vaunted top order failed in the Tests in England and South Africa's 96 all out being… Full Story »

  11. India Approach A Record

    A Cricketing View &bull Dec 2, 2011

    We live in a moment obsessed with records. With one record actually. Sachin Tendulkar has made 99 centuries for India, 51 of these in Tests, 48 in ODIs and thankfully, none in T20 cricket. I have had misgivings about the recordness, if you will, of this record. I later found out that I shared these misgivings with a far more forthright commentator. Mukul Kesavan memorably called the 100 centuries milestone the "half-wit's holy grail". The value of Kesavan's essay is reinforced by the spectacularly half-witted comments that proliferate among the 179 (at the time of writing this) that appear on… Full Story »
