It's the application, not the talent

Rarely have we seen turnaround like the one Australia have just effected, but the gulf between the two teams is not as vast as the scoreline might suggest

30-Dec-2013•Mark Nicholas

No hunger for Swann and England

They have lost the desperation to win and Australia were quick to sniff it out

22-Dec-2013•Mark Nicholas

A pretty big deal for Australia

Their regeneration has come from unpromising circumstances, and all levels of their leadership have had plenty to do with it

18-Dec-2013•Mark Nicholas

Captains contrasting

Australia's and England's leaders are men cut from different cloth but both likeable, successful, and with mutually uncompromising gifts of patience and bloody-mindedness

12-Dec-2013•Mark Nicholas

Raise courage and commitment, England

The ability to respond to challenges that are beyond the daily call is diminished by overkill, but that is precisely the task ahead of Cook and Co

10-Dec-2013•Mark Nicholas

Role reversal and ugliness add to the excitement

Australia are on top, Johnson is firing, Cook and Flower are struggling, Clarke and Lehmann are clicking. We can't wait for Adelaide

04-Dec-2013•Mark Nicholas

What fast bowling does

It gives aggro to your fielders, jitters to the opposition, and thrills to the fans

25-Nov-2013•Mark Nicholas

A touch of genius

As Kevin Pietersen prepares for his 100th Test, he is close to being regarded as a truly great cricketer, England's first since Ian Botham

19-Nov-2013•Mark Nicholas

David to a thousand Goliaths

Tendulkar has become a national symbol of optimism and pride but when he bats, we still see him as an underdog

14-Nov-2013•Mark Nicholas

A little ball-tampering will do cricket good

What's wrong with letting people help get the ball to swing, if they're doing it using natural resources?

31-Oct-2013•Mark Nicholas

The Fantastic Four

Remembering the glorious summer of 2005, when Hoggy, Harmy, Jonah, and Fred carried England to a rare state of euphoria

17-Oct-2013•Mark Nicholas

Not walking when you nick it? That's cheating

You have no choice but to walk when you're caught at cover. It ought to be the same if you feather it to slip

03-Oct-2013•Mark Nicholas

Time 50-over cricket is nurtured and sustained

All cricket's skills are on view in the 50-overs game. If the format is to retain its importance, it must be in the spotlight

12-Sep-2013•Mark Nicholas

Succour for Clarke and joy for Cook

England take a 3-0 victory but know they had more in the tank, while Australia showed gradual improvement after Lord's. Expect both sides to be at the limit of their game in Brisbane

25-Aug-2013•Mark Nicholas at The Oval

Watson plot most intriguing of many

England surprised everyone with their selections but the success of Australia's new No. 3 trumped even that

21-Aug-2013•Mark Nicholas at The Oval

Warner can make a difference

For the duration of his innings it appeared David Warner would get the better of England, but it wasn't meant to be. However, it confirmed that Australia can't afford for his talent to be wasted

12-Aug-2013•Mark Nicholas

Lyon's simple ploy that foxed England

Nathan Lyon is not a "modern" offspinner but his old-school values have served him well

09-Aug-2013•Mark Nicholas

Damn the weather, but Australia turn a corner

After the humiliation of Lord's, Australia refocused their game and, if it hadn't been for the weather, would probably have won in Manchester. That bodes well for the remainder of the Ashes

05-Aug-2013•Mark Nicholas

KP stocks still on the rise

The Old Trafford bars emptied to witness some Kevin Pietersen magic - let us hope there is still more to come

03-Aug-2013•Mark Nicholas at Old Trafford

Forgotten Phil watches his captain's mastery

Cast aside once again, Phillip Hughes sat in the pavilion and watched Michael Clarke play an elegant innings of the purest timing
