About two years ago I suggested Odis go to zero fielding restrictions....... And got some serious abuse for it.
Apparently that's what test cricket is for.


Remove the leg side wide rule. Or out some leeway in it! The ones that skim the batsmen/stumps should be no where near a wide.


0 bowling restrictions?


Fielding side allowed mints, Polish, sandpaper and some scissors to doctor the ball?

ODI bowlers would be better off learning the true art of bowling than taking the road of 'everyone is against us' mentality.

I think no restrictions is too unfair as you would have 9 fielders on the rope.

Relaxing the number of overs to, say 15 might be interesting.

The bowling allocation should be:
14 overs
12 overs
10 overs
8 overs
6 overs

Therefore the fifth bowler bowling some dross is drastically reduced.

AB de Villiers has won the toss and has elected to bat. Kyle Abbott, very unlucky, has been replaced by Vernon Philander.

As expected for the Kiwis, Matt Henry replaces the injured Adam Milne.

two balls in.. de cock being made to look stupid

[ProCricketer1982]

oh gerry... 5 balls out of six and de cock hasn't got a clue

[ProCricketer1982]

de cock running scared, amla paid the price. Amla gone.

On a positive note, this is what bowling should be like. not easy, not just play through the line stuff.

[ProCricketer1982]

sa looking like FTB's against top line bowling. where is the technique saffas??

[smilley792]

Rain break, overs reduction and far going second ball back may have got suffers worried.


But the mighty yorkshire man teeing off. Miller on 42 of 14 currently.  With 11 balls left!

[smilley792]

Miller gone for 49 of 18. A very important cameo

McCullum off to a flier! SA getting smashed around the park

Good to see Amla continues to prove my point that he's not a big match player and never scores in pressure games. Much rather have someone like mcCullum averaging 30 odd than someone like Amla averaging 55 and scoring against rubbish teams. McCullum's a match winner unlike Amla
