    Warne inducted into Australia Cricket Hall of Fame, Are you a fan?

    I am a Shane Warne fan and like his larrakin ways. "To be inducted into the Hall of Fame is just a massive honour, and it makes me feel very proud. I'm glad I'm sharing this with my children and my family," Warne said in a statement...

    Do you think the mentally fragile tag has stuck now with Indian test cricket?

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-2rPPogzE_8 @Albert - I know your hurting but try and make sense. We actually did some good stuff in SA. You blokes have been pathetic and you can't accept the facts.

    Are the dark ages beckoning for the future if Indian test cricket?

    Sunnil Gavaskar certainly is believing it. I think Indians are not accepting the impending challenges of maintaining their flailing test team. When the BCCI came out and said the tour of England results could be seen as a bad dream, that was just ignoring the problem. This bad dream is no...

    Do you agree Mc Dermott's appointment to bowling coach was a masterstroke by Cricket Australia?

    Is Hughes still in contention to play the Boxing day test?

    The Chairman's XI side features Test hopeful Ed Cowan, out-of-form batsmen Usman Khawaja and Phillip Hughes and will be captained by David Warner. Hughes is expected to be axed for the Boxing Day Test, but could come back into calculations with a big score in the tour match...

    Do you have an annual Christmas family/friends backyard cricket match?

    Its an annual event in my family and the match is usually littered with the same usual suspects. Theres my uncle who has never been out ever (Well in his eyes) and we generally have to hold him down and wrestle the bat off him even when he is clean bowled. My cousin who bowls like 30 ball overs...

    Would you agree selectors view Phillip Hughes as 60% skill and 40% potential?

    This is a batsman with a serious technical flaw in his batting technique. A batsman can hit his way back into good nick in a match. However a batting technique problem can sometimes take years to sort out and most times never. We are not talking about someone out of form, We are seeing a batsman...

    Anyone else sick of hearing Tubby Taylor whinging on 9's cricket telecast?

    He whinges about the umpires calling batsman back when a no ball is discovered in review. This morning he whinged that hotspot showed a nick when Jesse Ryder was given LBW. I saw no hotspot on the bat, did you? To all those who think its ok for a batsman to get out on a no ball. Think about it...

    How do you not back away from fast bowlers in cricket any advice would be good?

    Stand straight and very side on. Be well padded up if your unsure and possibly get yourself a forearm guard. When your fully kitted out not much will hurt you badly at junior level and even a chest protector is available these days. You need to confront your fears head on and a few knocks to...

    Do you think they use Philip Hughes to hit slips catches when the Aussies practice and train?

    Seriously that's all the guy is good for. He needs to be dropped immediately, do you agree?

    Has Indian cricket become sub continental specialists?

    Or have they always been. I see a lot of Indian fans coming out of the woodwork. I have seen a few in the last hours that were non existent when India were being humiliated in England. I understand Indian fans are excited after finally winning a game but maybe keep it real guys. This is a...

    Do you think test matches should be continued in cricket?

    If you find test matches boring then don't watch. T20 will never be an olympic sport, maybe a commonwealth games sport?

    Have you ever been to watch international cricket live?

    Yes many times. I have been to the Gabba, SCG, MCG and once to Belrieve oval. I have watched Australia, West Indies, New zealand, England, Indian, Pakistan and South African teams compete. My personal fave is a good old test match. Edit Saboo - sorry mate my mistake. I have removed my answer...
