Who will rain on Dhoni's parade?

Australia, England and South Africa can pose some threats, but the hosts are favourites

ODIs: less is more

There's plenty of life in the format if administrators take the responsibility for smarter scheduling and more effective promotion

18-Feb-2016•Mark Nicholas

Modern batting and the gift of fearlessness

The fear of failure has been inherent in cricket, but T20 has changed that. The key to the future is to not let the format ride roughshod

28-Jan-2016•Mark Nicholas

Amla's ideal

Why his decision to quit for the greater good and for personal harmony is brave and smart

14-Jan-2016•Mark Nicholas

Of Clarke and Kohli, New Zealand and Afghanistan

A look back at a year headlined by the World Cup and the Ashes, and also featuring plenty else

31-Dec-2015•Mark Nicholas

Is it time for the West Indian nations to go it alone?

Caribbean cricket is at a desperately low ebb, and there's little hope of things improving the way they're going at the moment

17-Dec-2015•Mark Nicholas

Pink-ball cricket: pretty as a picture

The Test at Adelaide Oval was an aesthetic delight, and it put bums on seats too

03-Dec-2015•Mark Nicholas

The forensic artistry of Kane Williamson

His game appears to lack emotion but it is not cold. Like Kallis, but more adaptable and with greater flair

19-Nov-2015•Mark Nicholas

Cricket could do with some humility and kindness

Violent as it is, rugby doesn't prevent its players from being respectful and considerate to their opponents. Surely cricketers can do the same

04-Nov-2015•Mark Nicholas

All hail England's legspin torchbearer

Traditionally the country has been sceptical about leggies. Rashid's debut performance has the potential to give the form the respect it deserves

22-Oct-2015•Mark Nicholas

We need Pakistan as much as it needs us

The country produces captivating cricketers, and the global game cannot afford to rest until Pakistan is fully restored to the fold

08-Oct-2015•Mark Nicholas

Magical mystery summer

There has been breathtaking, amazing cricket in England, but we need to ensure the next generation develops a taste for what is on offer

17-Sep-2015•Mark Nicholas

T20: it's a gas, gas, gas

The Cardiff match showed the format is valid and valuable. Only, we need to be careful we don't overdo it

01-Sep-2015•Mark Nicholas

Clarke pulls his final few tricks

He could not summon the score to give his career the grand send-off, but Clarke helped mastermind an Australia win, and everything he has given the game should be remembered

24-Aug-2015•Mark Nicholas

High drama, low tension

There was some crazy cricket in the Ashes although the quality was not always high. Yet for both teams it is the final outcome that matters. Careers are defined.

23-Aug-2015•Mark Nicholas

Made in Sri Lanka, adaptable everywhere

Kumar Sangakkara has been a flag-bearer for his country's cricket, dominating attacks, winning hearts and maintaining the highest standards for 15 years

19-Aug-2015•Mark Nicholas

Cook and Clarke: two good men riding a dangerous wave

Michael Clarke will soon be a forgotten man but Alastair Cook has proved a tough so-and-so and has completed the transformation from lost soul to triumphant leader

08-Aug-2015•Mark Nicholas at Trent Bridge

Beautiful Broad swings it for England

Stuart Broad was at his best on an extraordinary first morning at Trent Bridge, where swing and seam destroyed Australia and all but sealed the fate of the urn

06-Aug-2015•Mark Nicholas

Test match drama can't be beaten

Three matches down, two to go. The way this series has developed it is impossible know what will follow. Every moment should be savoured

03-Aug-2015•Mark Nicholas

Finn revels in the joy of redemption

The fast bowler who was labelled as "unselectable" on the last Ashes tour is a frontline force once again after a journey to purgatory and back
