Panyangara didn't get selected coz he is poo.

And Jarvis seems to underperform domestically which is weird for a bowler of his pace and stature.

The problem wit the import thing is we have our long term toilers- the wessels, the hortons etc. There's about two per team. And they deserve to play t20 if there good enough.

Then u have the superstars of the modern game. The gayles, the nannes. Or the sentimental favs like the harrises. These guys bring in the cash.

Next thing u know it's 5 imports to a team.

That said. Why hasn't Gillespie or streak gone out there and did their thing? Both are young enough

What, and Nel's gold? I got the impression Philander should have set out for him at Newlands too!

It's kind of hard for Streak&Gillespie, to play alongside, then coach the same boys when they're getting peppered all over as they are. I think Grant got a brief taste of that and settled for the national batting coach role instead! ;)

Well done Mountaineers!

Conant, unbelievable, who would've thought! Let me give you another one, who will win the Test&ODI&T20 series between Zim&NZ? Zim, NZ or Rain?
Great call by Conant...yep I want a few pointers from you mate...
Thanks guys, its a small gift of mine.

I once predicted that Sulley Muntari was gonna score the first goal of the match in that semifinal againt Uruguay. He hadn't been starting in the group matches and when I saw him lining up to start just before the match, I rang up my workmates and told them Muntari was gonna score. He was 33/1.

Lol, hhm. Its good to quit while you're still ahead -- in this case I will happily abstain!! :D
I am thinking of putting up a blog post where I make open calls on bets before the game and I will discuss with the forumuties as and when it comes out.
Of course where I put my money will contradict with some of the things I say here.

Hi, I have done some stats for the Stanbic Bank T20. http://www.crickiweb.com/csthome.htm.

They are fairly basic as I'm still learning the ropes. Hope you find them useful!
