T20 World Cup

I'd rather have Pieterson. Yuvraj is only good in one dayers and Twenty20. Pieterson is class in all forms of the game.
 
No I've been watching it since the early 90's

Welcome back. I see you avoided this thread on Sunday night.

Then you've got no business talking down the Indian side that won just about eveything in the last 12 months. Beat England, Australia, Sri Lanka, New Zealand and England at tests and ODIs.

Yuvraj still has time to improve his test record tbh. He has got about 2000 runs hasn't he in about 30 games or so. He needs more games in the test arena to improve and still only 27.

How come you didn't top the rankings then?

I admit you are good at test cricket and ODIs but you have to admit England are better than you in Twenty20 games. I reckon we would beat you in Test cricket aswell If it was played in England.

Don't let him wind you up.

He thought England was going to win this Tourney. Not as bad as Spoony though, who thought England are potentially World Class team :lol:

Based on what? One game?

If we weren't cheated out by the Duckworth Lewis we would have won the whole thing.

To be fair, the Indians haven't had much practice at T20.

England are one of the worst when it comes to T20's, sums up how much you know about cricket. You are a good outfit when it comes to Test arena and are decent enough in ODI's but not in T20's.
 
Does anyone really know who's good at T20, and who's not?

They mercifully don't play it that often.
 
This ranking system is wank, it took a while enough to get anywhere near dispatching the Aussies of the top since their dominance for the last 10 years.

Makes little a sense. A good run like the one India had, should've reflected in the rankings.

Check out the ranking system on the official ICC website - you will know what i mean. Aussies have racked up so many points over the years they were at some stage over 100 ahead of everyone else iirc.
 
Are you on the wind-up?

They use results from the last several years for the rankings, I think.

It's silly, though. I reckon there should be some sort of cut off point. Anyway, I think it's about time we had a proper Test WC/league. Obviously it'd have to span a couple of years, but all nations should have to play each other home and away within a specific time period - as I said 2 years.
 
How about two match series or something? And no other fecking gimmicky forms of cricket in between.

To be fair, I think that's the entire point of the ranking system. They use the five year future tours program cycle to judge the winner from that period.

I think, anyway. I can't be arsed to read the link as I'm busy procrastinating Uni work.

You're a mature student aren't you?
 
Yuvraj gone!

India humiliated again

'Stop! This is getting silly...'
