Cricket news:
More firangs try to cash in on a rich BCCI and a successful team. England begin a hopefully pathetic week for English sport by being walloped by West Indies. Peter Roebuck and Ian Chappell have different takes on whether Yuvraj Singh or Akash Chopra should open with Sehwag. Brilliant usage of language by Simon Briggs while describing the Windies team. Mike Atherton seems genuinely relieved after Jack Russell retires. He may not be as relieved to find out that someone thinks he should be the next ECB Chief Executive. No hopers Viv Richards, Javed Miandad and Michael Bevan find a place in Derek Pringle's list of top ODI batsmen as he conveniently ignores the claims of a dozen others, including the likes of Dean Jones, Sachin Tendulkar and Mark Waugh. Gibbs and Boje are very likely to tour India later this year with the South African side. Justin Langer is devastated at the possibility of not facing Murali as the Sri Lanka-Australia test series gets underway in a couple of days.
