There is no real shocks in the touring party named on Friday to take on Pakistan next month. Some might say that Bopara's name still being included is a shock, but one thing the selectors can't be accused of, is inconsistency. Ravi Bopara for Paul Collingwood is the only change from last years Ashes touring squad, and Collingwood had to go. It's an obvious factor in all sports that instability isn...

I heard Graeme Swann giving an interview to Radio 5 Live earlier today and as usual Swanny was good value and pulled no punches in telling it like it was. When asked to clarify his recent remarks about his views on ODI cricket, Swann denied saying it should be scrapped, but did say that it should be taking up a lesser part of the cricketing calender. Swann said that 5 and 7 match series should be ...

The pitch at Wankhede Stadium used for last weeks drab (with the exception of the 5th day) 3rd test between India and West Indies raised more than a few eyebrows from interested observers (outside of India in particular). There appears to be a school of thought doing the rounds that the pitch was produced purely for Sachin to get his 100th international century....

Lord Condon, once the head of the ICC's anti-corruption unit, has upset plenty in England over his comments that match fixing was rife in English county cricket in the 1980's. He also claimed that tests and world cup matches were being fixed routinely in the late 1990's and that every international team, at some stage, had someone doing some funny stuff. I don't dispute for a minute that there is ...

More attempts at killing test cricket in Kolkata this morning. Bad light stops play before lunch at Eden Gardens, a ground that has recently had massive amounts spent on it and could probably do with the revenue brought in by those people left who are still remotely interested in wanting to watch test cricket - and more importantly, a ground with floodlights.. I understand that Darren Sammy was on...

I got up this morning to see the sad news that Peter Roebuck had died late last night. I'm not going to go into the reasons why he might have killed himself, that is for another day, and there is clearly a lot more to come out with regard to the circumstances leading up to his suicide. There is a couple of points that have struck me today reading all the tributes to Roebuck. One is the exceptional...

Oh how disappointed I am with what Peter Siddle did today. We were so close to seeing Australia totally humiliated at Newlands, at 21/9, I was convinced that Australia would set the lowest ever test score in the history of cricket. For a few brief few moments the dream was alive, but just like he did in the 1st innings, Peter Siddle dug in and hung around for long enough to a job for his team just...

What a position the West Indies were in at the start of play today. At the end of Day 2 they were over a hundred runs in front, with 2 wickets down. A solid 275-300 runs in their...
