The Basics of the Cricket
In his time the Indiana Jones of Indian cricket, Srikkanth's batting style was entertaining, innovative and explosive. Indeed, his approach came as a whiff of fresh air and, not unexpectedly, he was a great crowd puller.
A swashbuckling opening batsman cast in the Mushtaq Ali mould, Srikkanth could destroy the strongest and most fearsome attacks in the world by fearless pulling, hooking and driving. But there were times when he could be dismissed by some pretty ordinary bowling.
Krish Srikkanth during his playing years as a member and captain of the Indian cricket team was known for his swash buckling and aggressive batting style. He has used his years of knowledge and expertise to author this blog on cricket techniques

The noughties, as the first decade of the new millennium came to be known, were the decade of the cricketing revolution. So much did the game change in the 10 years that the dark years around 2000 AD that were marked by the players’ betting scandal were quickly forgotten. Hansie Cronje died, Azharuddin entered politics successfully and the bookies went back into the woodwork.
If the end of the scandal represented the beginning of hope, the rapid change that came about with the Twenty20 revolution and the Indian Premier League and the Champions League that it spawned brought in its wake the biggest financial bonanza for the game. The cricke...more
When Steve Davis raised his finger to signal Morne Morkel’s dismissal leg-before wicket to Harbhajan Singh, the first reaction was not just to follow Harbhajan as he made his victory run but also to see the slow motion action replay. India did not want to win with an umpiring error with so little time left for the Test to finish. The decision was spot on again and what Davis and Ian Gould have shown in this series and in the Kolkata Test in particular, is that they are among the top umpires in the world. It is never easy to officiate in India with its noise and crowds and the heat and the dust but these two have been magnificent. The Eden Ga...more

1970: The end of an era that was only just beginning. South Africa completed their 1st series whitewash with another thumping victory over Australia in Port Elizabeth. Their 4-0 triumph was made up of four huge victories: by 170 runs, an innings and 129 runs, 307 runs, and 323 runs. But they would not play another Test for 22 years, after apartheid brought about their isolation, and nobody will ever know just how good this team which included Barry Richards, the Pollocks, Eddie Barlow, Denis Lindsay and Mike Procter could have been.
