This one's for Jeanne

In praise of a thoroughbred mother

Harmeet Singh and Unmukt Chand ready for internationals

Keeping them down at the Under-19 level to improve India's chances at winning the World Cup isn't right

26-Aug-2012•Ian Chappell

Pietersen issue resolved but what about the schedule?

England's administrators got their star batsman to agree to play all three formats again, but the problem of the overloaded itinerary still remains

Strauss needs to get aggressive

He cannot wait for South Africa to make mistakes; which is why he should pick the attacking Steven Finn for the next Test

29-Jul-2012•Ian Chappell

You can't manufacture presence on demand

Australia's coach wants his players to be aggressive, but that will only be effective if it comes through in their performances, not just their attitude

Contract the schedule

If Tests are limited to the top eight teams, T20s to clubs and a relegation system is introduced in ODIs, all three formats could survive and cricket could gain a broader talent pool

A short-ball exam that young batsmen are failing

Jonny Bairstow and Suresh Raina are talented players who Test cricket shouldn't lose; they lack a skill that can be easily taught

17-Jun-2012•Ian Chappell

Cricket's schedule is unsustainable

Like a certain international currency, it is under threat of collapsing unless administrators ease the strain

03-Jun-2012•Ian Chappell

Why aren't more bowlers complaining about the switch hit?

The stroke is patently unfair and widens the imbalance between bat and ball

Captains: follow Clarke's lead

In the long run, captains who aim to win and set fields that will get them wickets are the ones who will succeed and last

The curse of No. 1

Neither India nor England have been convincing at the top of the Test rankings, and narrow vision has prevented South Africa from getting there. But it's not a bad thing for the fan

08-Apr-2012•Ian Chappell

Make captains allies in the fight against corruption

Administrators must be prepared to allow fixers back into the fold, provided they are ready to be held up as examples of what not to do

Jayawardene succeeds where Dhoni fails

A lot of it has to do with the cultures and make-up of the Sri Lankan and Indian teams

Where's Australia's next captain coming from?

The two closest candidates are Watson and Warner, but neither has a realistic chance of landing the job

26-Feb-2012•Ian Chappell

Watson should remain at the top of the order

His batting skills are too good for him to be saddled with a frontline bowler's job too

12-Feb-2012•Ian Chappell

Who's the pick of the modern greats?

Ponting, Tendulkar or Lara - who among these modern batsmen was the most dominant?

29-Jan-2012•Ian Chappell

Warner's Twenty20 Test ininngs

The Australian opener has shown he isn't afraid to play his natural game, no matter what the format

15-Jan-2012•Ian Chappell

The quicks are back

Come Sydney, Australia's batsmen can be relaxed and bat better, knowing they don't need a mountain of runs to topple India. Their fast bowlers will do it
