What US cricket needs to do: a player's view

Cricket has not been able to capture USA's attention the way other amateur sports like lacrosse and rugby have done. What can the USACA do to try and change that?

Where has Pakistan's aggression gone?

Attacking play - particularly bowling - has been the team's hallmark down the decades, but not anymore it would seem

23-Apr-2015•Ramiz Raja

South Africa need a new narrative

To break their World Cup hoodoo, they need a new philosophy and paradigm of thinking, resulting in a new way of being on and off the cricket field

06-Apr-2015•Dr Ken Jennings

Does a ten-team World Cup make financial sense?

Not really. Contrary to the ICC's claim that it will provide more money for the development of the game

Drop-in pitches will nullify home advantage

Portable pitches in Australia tend to be more benign, which will help subcontinent teams acclimatise quicker in the World Cup

It's the culture of West Indies cricket administration that needs changing

There have been no repercussions within the West Indies board over the abandonment of the India tour. Till it's held accountable, things will not improve

Bats, boundaries, behaviour - cricket's big issues

The World Cup should be big and beautiful, just like bats and playing surfaces - and don't let yourself get worked up if tempers fray

05-Feb-2015•Mark Butcher

Different skills for different formats

ODI cricket brought better fielding and quicker scoring to the fore. T20 has taken that progression to the extreme

How to construct a one-day chase

Focus on targets smaller than winning the match, and back your tailenders to deliver for you

26-Jan-2015•Michael Bevan

What makes Warner snap?

His tendency to get in opponents' faces has been in focus in recent weeks. Do we know what is motivating this behaviour?

20-Jan-2015•Iain O'Brien

Why punish the West Indies players when the administration is to blame?

As ever, the West Indies board has taken the short-term view and removed supposedly troublesome players instead of recognising its own incompetence

When defeat isn't depressing

After a long time we have seen an Indian team and captain enjoy the challenge of trying to overcome stronger opposition in an overseas Test

Living with Tuesday

We acknowledge that potential danger exists on the pitch but dismiss it almost instantaneously. You never really see it as real. Until Tuesday. Now it is very real and I, like many others, have been shaken to the core.

Living and working with the bouncer

Hitting someone with a short one is sickening for a bowler, and worse for the batsman, but the game must go on, and the bouncer is a part of the game

26-Nov-2014•Iain O'Brien

Pakistan should not welcome Amir back

The serene team culture cultivated by Misbah and his men shouldn't be allowed to be disrupted by a player with a tainted past

Players' player Hinds needs to win back trust

The lack of clarity from the WIPA president is at odds with his reputation for being a sounding board for his team-mates while he was a player

28-Oct-2014•Garth Wattley

Where do England go next in ODI cricket?

The 50-over game has historically not exactly been a priority for England until it has been too late, but they could yet be in with a fighting chance in next year's World Cup

06-Sep-2014•Ashley Giles

We need sophisticated technology to deal with chucking

Slow-motion 3D replays must be captured in the match environment in order to provide an accurate picture of bowling actions
