As ever a great read. As someone posted on Twitter. If only it had been on Free to Air TV. How many kids would be inspired by them?
If anyone under 30 understands the relevance of the post title, they can have a virtual drink on me.
I'm (really very slightly) over 30, so I'm having a real drink, if that's ok?
Poor old Roy Castle. Mind, I never warmed to the Freedom Association's Norris McWhirter much. He'd probably have been quite at home at the ECB . . .
Whose batting style are you calling obsolete? Are you looking at Alistair Cook? See you outside!
A great piece Chris. Insightful, balanced and beautifully written.
Alastair! I keep writing the name incorrectly! Shame on me.
You know that maxim there is no 'i' in team. So why do folk keep thinking there must be two of them in Alastair?
Okay, someone has to be the relentless churl, and if no-one else wants to…. let it be me!
Firstly, on the broad issue of England and one-day cricket. The comparison is always with England's history. We're so much better than we were at the last WC! We're so much better than we've ever been (ever meaning since 1992 because the world didn't exist before then)! Yes – but those are not the only meaningful measures. A team of England's player base and resources should be highly competitive in one-dayers. The current success is not a miracle – it is England getting up to the level where England should be. It's the chronic under-performances of the past that need some explaining, not the current results. The team was sacrificed on the altar of officer class opening batsmen/captains unsuited to one-day cricket for two decades – and the one time that was briefly abandoned, under Adam Hollioake, hey presto the team did rather well.
Secondly, are England's results that good? I don't care how many big scores they run up – these are a means to an end, not (as they seem to be regarded) an end in themselves. Do England win? This summer England have thrashed two very poor ODI sides. Okay, that was all they could do. (More thoughts on Pakistan later). The likes of Vaughan and Hussain are flushing down the memory plughole the lost series to SA and Australia. Both losses were quite narrow – but then so was the win against NZ. In both cases, England went into a decider at 2-2 and lost heavily. I'm not at all convinced that it was down to over-ambition and was just an unfortunate bad day at the office. It's reasonable to put a question mark against this team's ability to cope with tournament pressure as the decider of a bilateral series is the nearest one can get to tournament conditions outside of a tournament. That's a big question mark to be answered. For Vaughan to compare England to the great Australian side that won three consecutive WCs away from home is preposterous.
Thirdly, is the team that good? The batting has power and depth? Agreed. But "quite simply, there is no team, not India, not Australia, not New Zealand, who can compete with England's batting power and depth"? Really? Look at Australia's first-choice top eight – can it really not compete with England's? There are other qualities than depth and power – what about flexiibilty? Can this side cope with an ODI on a bowler-friendly wicket? England lost the series against Australia because they collapsed on a pitch where the ball nipped about – and they collapsed not to McGrath and Warne, not even to Starc and Hazlewood, but to John Hastings and Mitch Marsh. The bigger question marks remain against the bowling. There are lots of options! Yes – but are they really top class? The seamers did better in the T20 WC than I thought they would – and that may be more significant than the batting feats that are grabbing the headlines. However a couple of good T20s isn't much of a foundation to build a castle on. There's much to be proved by the bowling attack. I'd also say England are not a great fielding team – they're not bad but it's still a team I could see dropping catches and missing run outs under pressure.
Fourthly, are Pakistan that bad? Yes, and yes again. They are ranked ninth – but there still seems a kind of denial about this (as if they were good once and we can't quite recalibrate). Their batting has been left behind by the franchise revolution. Why aren't they on the list of teams less likely to break the batting record than England ? They should be! For all the talk about the Judge's long-standing record, Pakistan's also dates back to the 1990s. (I'm not telling you who it is – but I loved watching him almost as much as the Judge!). Pakistan's white ball bowling strength has been massively overstated – read the excellent article on Cricinfo by Ahmer Naqvi about that. There are multiple ways of showing how poor they are – they only qualified for the CT by rigging the schedule, they may well have to play in the qualifiers for the 2019 WC, they have lost 10 consecutive tournament games to India (I think) etc. Pakistan are a seriously, seriously bad one-day side.
Fifthly, are we happy this is where the game is heading? Someone (I think it was Big Kev) called this sort of cricket seal-clubbing and I'm seeing the point. I didn't watch it – not that it matters. I watched a gripping contest between bat and ball in the morning at Centurion. I'd rather watch a great fast bowler than have Ravi Shastri yelling "that's out of here" or Nasser telling us yet again that it's "massive". Bilateral ODIs have long struggled and I'd be inclined to put them out of their misery. I haven't watched a ball of the SL/Australia ODIs either. It might be nice if the occasional ODI in England wasn't on a road – but I guess the counties know what's expected of them.
So, England are a very good side in ODIs but with much still to prove. The winter ODIs against India will be a better test of where the team stands. They could well win the CT next year – they have, after all, come within a whisker of winning it before. Whether it's a competition that I can care about, that should be taking place, and should be taking place in England – these are quite different matters.
Sort of – but I suspect two-paced and slow-turning wickets could be more of an issue for them than bouncy ones.
"Whether I would have made a difference, I don't know. But I was fully confident we would get out of our group, and from there, you've got to win three games in a row – that's how this World Cup has worked.
The Cook/Morgan relationship seems to continue to be frosty. Judging by Newmans piece this week highlighting their different views on the coming tour. Reading between the lines I think Cook feels his destiny was taken away from him by the ECB, and Morgan got the benefit.
Re the seal-clubbing, I refer you to quebecer's post in the previous thread. Skill was involved. Seals were not harmed. And I think KP would have enjoyed the way Buttler was manipulating the field.
It would be interesting to read someone more expert than me on how Buttler actually hits the ball. He seems to have developed a technique that gives him an extra leverage at the point of impact – I think it was Nasser said he 'breaks his hands'.
On "seal-clubbing", I've mixed feelings (I said "I'm seeing the point" i.e. I can see why someone says that, not that I 100% agree). If "clubbing" means just 'big bats', then of course that's a nonsense.
The "seal" part I take to mean the victim is helpless, not that there isn't necessarily skill involved. A road of a pitch, a ball that doesn't seam nor swing, short boundaries, some would add fielding restrictions although these have now been relaxed from what they were – where do bowlers fit in? I don't mind the occasional run-fest but the balance is too far in one direction to my taste.
Anyway, that dreadful England of the 1990s that people keep writing books about couldn't have done anything similar. Could never have massacred Pakistan in a TB ODI….
If you're having a good day as a bowler if you only average 40 / wicket, the balance is off. Seal clubbing is an apt description. Sure it involves some skill (as does seal clubbing, undoubtedly), but it is not a contest between two sides. It is a contest to set some personal / team records, but as a competition it is meaningless.
Only 3 times has a team batting first made 350 or more and lost.
Personally, I am much more interested in ODIs where par is around 220-240.

I think listening and seeing are one of the most important and core skills of improvisation. If you aren't listening or seeing the other improvisers you aren't improvising with them, as you're missing everything they are doing. It's a first requirement.
Also teaches people to be obvious, as that's when the group mind kicks in for this game.
At first the group copies the leader who talks very obviously, and they all talk loud saying what he's saying at the same time and in the same way. Gradually they lower the volume until they are just saying it in their heads. So I can now point to different people and they pick up on the story/sentence, even if it's mid word. It's very easy to spot when you aren't listening in this game, as it grinds to a halt.
Remind them that they aren't just heads and hands, people have legs and feet and loads of other things too, so awaken the whole body.
People come in one by one playing individual parts of sound and movement in a machine that represents something physical, an emotion, or a concept. Keith Johnstone mentions it in is book but says it's not worth doing. I actually think it is one of the best group physical exercises going, as it teachers actors to build a complete stage picture quickly. Also great for listening and seeing as there are so many parts to be aware of.
B. Hello. Mr. Hilgarberry, that's me, welcome to the laboratory.
A: That's you. Welcome to the laboratory indeed, I've heard a lot about you.
B. Indeed! I've heard a lot about you too! Professor McMacelberry, the fastest atom smasher this side of Switzerland.
A: Too. Professor McMacelberry, the fastest atom smasher this side of Switzerland. They don't call me Fusion Man for nothing!
So overall, if you can't see or hear what the other improvisers are doing, you can't really improvise with them. Mick Napier suggests that concentrating too much on listening alone can be a bad thing though, as it makes people passive and not actually adding anything, which I also agree with. So as always in impro, I think it's a matter of balance, and definitely a skill worth practicing.


A radio telescope once used to track ballistic missiles has helped astronomers determine how the magnetic field structure and rotation of the young and rapidly rotating Crab pulsar evolves with time. The findings are published in the journal Science today (Friday).
The Crab pulsar is a neutron star which formed in a massive cosmic explosion seen in both Europe and China in AD 1054 as a bright star in the daytime sky. Now rotating 30 times a second, this highly-compact star emits beams of radio waves that, like a lighthouse, produce flashes each time it rotates. The star itself is only about 25 km across but contains the mass of nearly 1 million Earths.
Professor Andrew Lyne and his colleagues from The University of Manchester report on a steady change in these flashes during a 22-year experiment watching the star, telling us about its very strong magnetic field and helping us learn about the otherwise-inaccessible interior of the star.
The flashes, or pulses, come in pairs. The new observations show that the spacing of these pairs of pulses is increasing by 0.6 degrees per century, an unexpectedly large rate of evolution. The scientists have shown that this means that the magnetic pole is moving towards the equator.
The astronomers employed a 42-ft telescope that was formerly used to track the Blue Streak missile at the Woomera Rocket Test Range in Australia until 1981, when it was dismantled, transported and re-erected at the Jodrell Bank Observatory in Cheshire, England. This relatively modest telescope has been used to observe the Crab pulsar almost daily for 31 years, during which time the pulsar has rotated 30 billion times, and Jodrell Bank has kept count of every rotation. The most accurate observations, made since 1991, show the small gradual change in the pulse spacing.

Study lead Andrew Lyne, an Emeritus Professor at Manchester, said that the most surprising aspect is that this change is happening so rapidly, when the interior of the star is superconducting, and the magnetic field should be frozen in position.
