>West Indies have become some of the most successful franchises in world cricket thanks to their commitment to developing their players and the ongoing presence of some of the best cricketers in the country. However, the team recently announced the signing of Phil Simmons, a man who had little time for them at times. Simmons was never known for his on-field management skills but, with his connections and personal connections, he had little reason to fear West Indies management. On one game, in 2012, the West Indies had to wait nearly five hours to announce that all players with less than one game remaining were to be released after Simmons refused to play a player who had played one Test match in the country. It wasn't until last October, that he was let go due to his role in facilitating the release of several injured players and the team's performance. Now however, after five years of having him as their head coach, they are going to be hoping he can guide his team in the World Cup.

cricket?

sebbo?

Cricket is the single greatest bat-and-ball sport ever conceived. This is the sport in which the game-changers appear and disappear, changing as quickly and spectacularly as the batsmen did against batsmen. To see it in its full glory is a wonderful revelation.

But even as I watch you swing, watching you play on, I also know that I am not watching it. I am watching it through a filter, that of the fan. When you play cricket, you are talking to the fans, hearing their stories in the same way you listen in to the commentary. I am watching you not for cricket; I am watching you play a game, for the players and coaches, but also for the fans. Your story is theirs.

The best thing about watching cricket is that you can tell a cricket story: I watched a replay when one, like the rest, I never heard the last of. I am reading the press release I saw about David Beckham taking five. On the morning it was announced, I sat on Twitter wondering in my sleep about the story of Steve Waugh breaking a world record for successive hundreds, while also wondering whether the news broke while I was still asleep. There was some excitement and some anxiety, of course: how the team would move around the world in three days without having practised for three days; all I know is that the excitement dissipated as they took off for India and that all the rest is going to come later, as I have written before. That can mean that you'll be watching a cricket match when it won't be for a week: the players will be playing cricket until Monday at the earliest. The excitement disappears if everything goes wrong. The only way to see a world-class player play the kind of game he does is to get there before he's in it, by watching his mind. It is all or nothing: they have to win before the other side can.

It is all or nothing: they have to win before the other side can.

It's also worth considering when watching a cricket match. When I was a teenager, the great Richard Hadlee had a special technique for explaining the statistics of batting and bowling to our nation, a technique that worked. A year into the game, England's leading spinners would explain to me how their batsmen had not hit enough overs to qualify for the knockouts. "One ball, three balls, four balls," he would explain. "If it takes four balls to get out of the crease, you need to get back. You might take five balls to do this."

These ideas can work in cricket, too. Take a glance at the numbers. In the 2014 World Cup, India lost to South Africa three times: once by 118 runs, once by 102 runs and one game over by 116, all in seven innings. In an ideal world, cricket is an all-consuming physical and mental act, but in recent times the numbers are so skewed that the average world-class player's ability isn't really tested in any great measure. The Australian Ashes were an interesting test because England were the superior fielders. Australia won the toss and started to throw at the boundary, as though trying to play catch the ball away for fear it might tip over. The spinners needed to be patient, hoping they could find the right ball for Sri Lanka to swing back into the crease. The Australian spinners needed to be in the right spot when England batsmen had the pace needed to turn the ball, and yet Sri Lanka had such a big gap through the pitch and the length of the field that the Australian spinners, as they'd been taught from their time in England or the South African Test tour, would have been better off throwing off the pace for the middle overs. And yet the spinners ended up throwing them away.

When they started playing Test cricket in Sri Lanka during the last decade-plus of British rule, the spinners were a valuable asset, if not a crucial one—one that could be adapted to suit different forms. Now it's less easy than it was then to keep players in one style and not the other, and in recent years has become a little less attractive.

pub

In India, though, that is changing. For several years now India has had two spinners in particular—the fast bowlers Rahul Dravid and Virat Kohli—to be relied upon heavily for spin. Kohli came to the West Indies in 2009, but the former Mumbai and Delhi allrounder was often left off the Test team, in part because of his poor domestic form—in the middle order he has just 11 wickets in 12 games for Gujarat to his name—and often the pitch was not conducive to spinner-style performances. Kohli has since emerged as one of the most important spinners in Indian team cricket this season, and has taken a backseat to Dravid and Yuvraj Singh in the top order. The Indian skipper's presence on the field may well help bring stability, but that doesn't mean the spinners simply stop performing the same ways.

"Spinner-style play is always important. It doesn't mean that you can't play spin bowling at all, but if you're going to use this style it would be nice that your bowling is more consistent, your offspin is better to your offspin. You might be thinking "oh good heavens, spin bowling is so boring. Why am I still doing it?" If you're new to bowling that you're playing spin bowling and you're a fan of the style you might be tempted to start playing spin bowling and see how it goes and why you want it so badly.

The problem though, is, I think, you have to know what you are getting into if you want to play this sort of style. I think that the style that I've played is pretty good - you should be able to hold onto those high scores you got and play your more aggressive form of ball. I've also got really good bowlers who aren't good spin bowlers that I try and develop over here in Bangalore. It's just about finding something you like and really, really enjoying it and having fun.

"Once you get to understand what you are doing you can then begin to experiment and see if you can get some more of it. You will never understand something so much as what the players are doing so try and play your best spin bowling and don't try and learn too many tricks.

"You have to be quick at your wicket or you are in trouble. If you get the bat on the line you have got the ball."

Dewey, who is keen to continue his career, said: "The only thing I can do is hope that I am not the only one to do this."

Awful thread

ok i keep seeing that Pakistan lose immediately if Bangladesh wins the toss and elects to bat...but what if Pakistan miraculously bowls them out in ten or fifteen overs. If it only takes six or so overs to equals Bangladesh's total wouldn't that mean a really high run RATE for Pakistan?

Nobody seems to be considering this and I'm not really sure how this NRR works. Honestly the tiebreaker should be H2H, its retarded we even have a chance at the semi's.

I am an Australian cricket fan. But I am also a cricket fan in general. And as a cricket fan, I am concerned with the decline of cricket in England (thanks Sky). That's why the Australian cricket fan in me wants Australia to win, but the cricket fan acknowledges that this would make the sport pretty much Australiawinslol, and for me England winning is a good outcome. Would also increase domestic interest for the ashes if England wins.

Saucy-Woo-Gee-Pee-Woo: The best part - I think NZ actually won a match against Australia because Australia didn't run them out like they need to, and they beat them in that match on the last day of the World Cup in Australia. Australia played a really shitty match in the last match and this tournament, where they weren't getting as much practice against South Africa and Australia. So maybe they might actually take another hit if Zimbabwe is good like they looked before.

Ragnar-Djor: Oh I am not going to name players who are injured because I didn't know any of them were injured until I came here. The fact that this is just a guess I feel like the whole thing is completely insane and it won't ever happen. I am just going to be a neutral and assume the team is good.

Ragnar-Djor: I know this is my "first impression" of Zimbabwe before I get here but I can't help but think that the World Cup is just going to be one giant show for those "sport" fans because it seems a little harsh on them. You know when you hear "world's great teams are the ones that play small and spread out"? I just feel that Zimbabwe is trying to be a little more refined compared to some other teams in this tournament. This tournament will certainly help that. They will be more focused on getting their players ready and preparing them for the World Cup which is when they will do a few very difficult matches.

Sebastian: I think it is great to see that Zimbabwe have finally taken the cue from their opponents and are playing like they are winning. For a long time if you did not beat your opponent you were considered a bad team when looking at how bad your players were. But now, as you have seen, no one takes it personally in Zimbabwe these days.

Have you read Ian Healy? He is one of my favourite journalists and writers in the world. I have read various pieces published by him over the years, but this is by far the best article out there. When I look at Healy's article for the Wall Street Journal I see that it is a solid argument, but in an article like this it's difficult to see what would have happened in a hypothetical match where Australia beats England and India to win the World Cup, since Australia would have lost, not won. I'm not quite sure what else there is. But anyway, I am giving this article as a recommendation to anyone interested in studying Australian cricket; it really is great stuff, and it has a fantastic analysis.

It's an easy piece to analyse, but what follows is just about what any sensible person would do in similar circumstances. Just try to get yourself out of the way and focus on what you like. This should be easy enough. But it's not.

From very early on Bangladesh was a very shit team. We couldn't win against anybody. We would get absolutely hammered against even West Indies, Zimbabwe.
Against Neil Johnson, Andy Flower, Grant Flower, Heath Streak, we would stand no chance to even play competitively. Things were very grim.

Then Robert Mugabe fucked up the Zimbabwean Cricket forever. And we would only play against a vastly inferior Zimbabwe team and get some win on the boards.

Those matches against Zimbabwe is the reason behind why we're a number 7 team in the ranking today and not number 10. Thank you based Mugabe.

we're in the other thread

Bit knackered today

I'm in New Zealand

which one?

comfy
go to bed
grim

Yeah I think players kinda need to go there at least with the intention of winning games. Seems he's just there to collect a cheque. 84k is a lot of money for not even winning a game. I could have done that

No, it means tanking. Players do it all the time.

pretty brutal m8
i should've found one with subtitles though because i couldn't understand half the mumbling, especially from the welsh lads

Is tanking materially different from matchfixing?

>watched the trailer
>couldn't understand a single word
hmmmmm

I feel like matchfixing has gambling implications and tanking in tennis is just kinda giving up and wanting it over asap.

THWACK

so when i was still playing cricket when i was 12 or 13 or whatever, how fast would those lads have been bowling?

Ian Smith BTFO

80-90 kmph i guess

Ian Smith is the ultimate cazzie filter. He seems to make plebs mad without even trying

making this tomorrow lads

Nice recipe lad

Really looking forward to the toss for the paki v Banglakek game.

Hope pakis lose it and are forced to bowl. The seeth would be amazing from the pakis. I mean, Bangladesh might just want to bat first because it seems to he the best thing this tournament but I'm sure the pakis will find some way to make it about them and that there was some conspiracy.

REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE LMAO REEEEEEEEEEEE WE WERE GOING TO GET 100080 RUNS FOR SURE AND BOWL YOU OUT FOR 12 THE ICC ARE CORRUPT ITS NOT FAIR REEEEEEE

Hehhehe

Tastes really nice though.

Need to Photoshop Shakib into a New Zealand uniform like the pakis did with Kane and a paki uniform

>afghan fielding

I appreciate the position but I'm actually a genuine #11 and I bowl "Right arm effort balls" meaning they're like 90k tops.

I'm probably a better leg spinner than pacer but bowling is the only exercise I get and leg spin is for fat cunts.

For batting, I consciously only have two modes: block everything and swing madly at everything. In one season my strike rate for 2 dayers was 15 and for 1 dayers was 130, admittedly from only two innings in each

Rashit Latif was literally crying corrupt ICC yesterday lol no kidding

Haha where can I see that indiabro

please remember to #visitleeds when you come to england lads
we have some good shopping arcades and a fabulous multi-storey car park

Anyone following the Ireland game?

Thanks for the cheese. Catch ya's later

why isn't the Goblin playing?

Cheers good luck m8

>But the hosts have been dealt a major blow with star wicketkeeper-batter Sarah Taylor out of the match with a minor ankle injury, replaced in the XI by Danni Wyatt.

The current run rate is woefully inadequate. Afghanistan will have to improve it substantially if they're to be any chance of winning this match.

bit goin on here

Afghanistan will probably want to move on from nearly winning games to actually winning them

So, after six weeks, the four teams that had a 91% chance of being the top four teams 3 weeks ago are, indeed, the top four teams. Wow.

My favourite part of this world cup has been the mental gymnastics from seething indians trying to pretend this format isn't moronic.

why is pyjama cricket such a meme?

lmaoing at the seething brainlets who support a pool system and not the based round robin format of the CWC

I just miss the random countries you don't typically associate with cricket.

I'll admit that's the biggest thing wrong with this format

cricket idea: round robin format with a minimum 20 nations

ohhhhh /cric/ is short for cricket now i get it

Did you finish dead cells? I went as far as the palace

I just play Company of Heroes nonstop, yes I'm autistic, I've been playing the same maps in skirmish mode against the ai for a decade. I just can't let go of it, I can thrash the ai on expert now which isn't an easy thing.

i played it to 100% twice as well as once on the PS2. know it like the back of my hand (console version is way harder because some of the challenges were badly overtuned)

Don't have Steam.
