William Hales (8 April 1747 – 30 January 1831) was an Irish clergyman and scientific writer.

He was born in Cork, Ireland, the son of Samuel Hales, the curate at the cathedral church there.

He went to Trinity College, Dublin in 1764 and became a fellow there, graduating with a BA and DD. He later became professor of oriental languages in the university. In 1778 he published Sonorum doctrina rationalis et experimentalis a study, based on experiments, of Newton's theory of sounds. In 1782 he published De motibus planetarum dissertatio, another study of Newtonian theory, this time on the motions of the planets in eccentric orbits. In 1788 he had printed at his own expense Analysis aequationum, a mathematical text for which he was complimented by Joseph Louis Lagrange.

In 1788 Dr. Hales resigned as professor and became Church of Ireland rector of Killeshandra, county Cavan, and lived there for the rest of his life. In 1791 he married and he and his wife had two sons and two daughters. In 1798 he obtained government troops to regain control of the country round Killeshandra, following the landing by a French army at Killala. From about 1812 was chancellor of the diocese of Emly.

His best-known work is A New Analysis of Chronology, which took twenty years to complete and was finally published in three volumes (1809 - 1812). In this book, which deals with the chronology of the whole Bible, Hales made it his rule as far as possible to use original sources. His other works include The Inspector, or, Select Literary Intelligence for the Vulgar and Irish Pursuits of Literature (both 1799), Methodism Inspected (1803–5), and Letters on the Tenets of the Romish Hierarchy (1813). From about 1820 or earlier he suffered from depression. He died in 1831.

Sir William Hales Hingston KCB (29 June 1829 – 19 February 1907) was a Canadian physician, politician, banker, and Senator.

Born in Hinchinbrooke near Huntingdon, Quebec, he received his MDCM from McGill University in 1851.

In 1875, he became Mayor of Montreal and was re-elected by acclamation for a second and final term.

He was president of the Montreal City and District Savings Bank (today the Laurentian Bank of Canada).

In 1896, he was appointed to the Senate representing the senatorial division of Rougemont, Quebec. He sat as a Conservative and died in office.

He was knighted by Queen Victoria in 1895. Pius IX made him a Knight Commander of the Order of St. Gregory the Great in 1875.

He married Margaret Josephine Macdonald, the daughter of Donald Alexander Macdonald, and Catherine Fraser, at Toronto, Ontario 16 September 1875, Margaret was born at Alexandria, Ont., and educated in Montreal. Lady Hingston volunteered for the St. Patrick's Orphan Asylum and the Catholic Sailors' Club. She served as a director of the Women's Historical Society, and Vice-President of the Aberdeen Association, Montreal. She was a founder and later President, of the Society of Decorative Art. She championed the preservation of Mount Royal Park, and served as a member of the Advisory Board of the Parks and Play-grounds Association. She was identified with the movement for the prevention of tuberculosis.[1]

Their oldest son, William F. Hingston (1877–1964), was rector of Loyola College from 1918 to 1925.

I've been wanting to ask this but i dont want to sound like a complete retard (though I'm probably way past that already)

It seems like the batters always stand completely in front of the wickets. So how could the bowler ever knowck them down?
I read about the lbw rule but it said if the ball is in the line then hits the leg he can be out.
So why would they leave their leg there when it risks getting out?
>>

it's the best way to play shots, unless you're a complete meme like Maxwell every batsman steps to the ball in order to make a clean hit

By using the bat to hit the ball away.
>>
>>67699168
So do you really ever see the ball hit the wickets?
>>
>>67699144
Because getting hit in the legs is at least a chance the umpire gives it not out then if you let it sail through. It's very rare that a bowler will bowl at the wickets vs a proper batsman, only against shitty tail-enders.

Also they need to be well positioned to play a variety of shots. If he stood way out of the way he wouldn't even be able to reach the ball probably.

That's generally the idea for the reason pommie >>67699187 said.

But at the same time you can't walk completely infront of your off-stump (google this) otherwise you become a massive LBW candidate and bowlers will just target your middle and leg stump

Clean bowling a batsman is relatively rare but glorious when it happens. See: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0rAUV9cUkbw

>>67699229
English central contracted players are paid around $1.02 million per year. Australians are paid more if I recall. The poor countries pay less obviously, although in Pakistan/India it's basically a religion so they might be paid comparably due to the sheer popularity/marketing of it.

Well being Indian in the IPL is alot more valuable than being a foreigner. IPL teams can only field four foreigners which obviously means they need to put out 7 Indians. it's all well and good to have four great overseas players but if you have a bunch of Indian manlets bowling 120 kp/h pies then it won't matter because you will lose every game anyway.

That's why Bangalore lose every fucking year despite having Kohli, de Villiers, Gayle, Watson and Starc.

>>67699447

T20 cricket is conceptually closer to baseball than Test cricket.

In Test cricket you win the game by taking 20 wickets so the batsman is naturally cautious and the bowler is on the offence.

In T20 you win by just slogging it as much as possible in 120 balls so the bowler is on the defensive and simply trying to limit the damage caused and usually isn't worried about wickets. That's closer to baseball where you win by smacking the ball out of the park.

>Baseball pitches are in the mid to upper nineties on most fastballs.
They're chucking in baseball. In cricket you have to bowl with your arm straight.

A 'fast' bowler is anyone who can bowl 90 mp/h. At the moment Australia has three guys who can do that, South Africa has a couple and Pakistan has one. No other country has any genuine quicks.

Pat Cummins is the only guy who can really crank it up into the mid 90 mp/h's, though Starc does it occasionally: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AvHrbF4lDv0

Jeff Thomson was a yard quicker than Brett Lee and Shoaib Akhtar who were both clocked at 100 mp/h. Thommo clocked 160 kp/h at the fucking batsmens end. The way it is measured today is out of the bowlers arm.

I think the most I have seen a ball swing was Praveen Kumar in England 2011. The Dukes that year were hooping and with his medium pace the ball just had so much time to move.

He was swinging it so much he wasn't getting any wickets because it was just doing a big fucking banana across the pitch and it wasnt getting anywhere near the batsman.

"t." is for 'terveiset' which is Finnish for 'regards'.

For example, one anon may write a post that says "I'm English, but I barely support the national team because of all the niggers".

Another anon could reply "t. Hitler", meaning he's implying that is a racist post.

As for "what did he mean by this", that's from /tv/ and is used when an anon doesn't understand certain dialogue in film and TV.

>>67714773
Seriously? I wouldn't have expected that to be any good
>>
>>67714880
Why not? For starters it's an account of Australia's entire golden generation and eventual slide into mediocrity so for that perspective alone it is interesting.

But more importantly Ponting is one of the most intelligent cricketers I have seen (even if his captaincy was often conservative) so his insights on the game and all the events he was personally involved in is fascinating.

I haven't read a heap of cricket books but I have recommended his auto to a few people and everyone who has read it that I've talked to said they enjoyed it.

Why the fuck does Stokes still get selected? He as memeswell tier match awareness and only manages to make a decent score once a year. With the muslim in the team and Broad being not entirely shit with the bat, you really don't need another batsman to pad the order out. Just select Woakes or some shit in his place.

>"What I do is unique: I do what I do. When it comes to the batting side of things, that's a bonus as well," Philander said at a sponsorship announcement on Wednesday. "We are all different types of bowlers in that set-up. It's all about combinations at the end of the day. I've played a couple of crucial innings towards the back end. Batting at No.8 is just unique. If you have a guy who can bat at 8, that makes a difference. So yes, my all-round ability is something, I would like to see that still being part of the fold. That's what I bring to the party."

Why are South Africa so obsessed with finding an allrounder? Kallis was great, sure, but you don't need a Marsh or Stokes in every fucking team. Is this just so they can fit more blacks and pakis into the team?

uhhh what? He doesn't even open for Australia you can't pick him as an opener.

De Kock hasn't proven himself that much at test level yet either but is likely the best of the keepers in time. Personal bias would push me to picking Watling ahead of him. Rest is correct, including the part about #6 being debateable. I'd pick stokes tttt

No way you can say Khawaja is even close to Cook right now lad. Maybe if in another 8 months Khawaja still has a meme average but otherwise no.
>>
>>67717607
>Yasir over Ashwin is debatable

it isn't. Ashwin is a joke overseas. I guess you could say yasir is relatively unproven but he can't possibly be worse.

>Also no Steyn.

He's need to be fit enough to bowl more than 4 overs to be even elegible. it isn't 2011 anymore. May aswell pick Glenn McGrath is you want Steyn in.

>>67717614
>He doesn't even open for Australia

he has played almost his entire FC career as an opener and he could open. There isn't a 2nd World Class opener in world cricket. Cock is the next best but he has been bang average the last few years and Khawaja is simply better.

Khawaja could easily open for Aus but having a good no3 is more important. It's about getting as many good players into the XI as possible and Khawaja is arguably the form player in international cricket.

>>67717614
>De Kock hasn't proven himself that much at test level

He is the only one who is both a (potentially) world class batsman and keeper. Bairstow is the best batsman but a rubbish keeper. Chandimal is an interesting option but he is sort of part-time and will probably stop doing it once that Perera guy comes back.

>Personal bias would push me to picking Watling ahead of him

Laughable. He isn't in the top5 (top 5 being: de Kock, Chandimal, Bairstow, Sarfraz, Nevill). Got completely exposed vs Aus
>>
>>67717639
he literally is

Cook has struggled since the UAE and Khawaja is in the form of his life

Ashwin is in good form in tests and he hasn't really played outside India in the last year in tests.

True, but Storc is dead as well right now.

>>67717677

>>67717676
>In an elite team that's all you need from a 5th bowler

Lets say we invented a time machine and this team was playing a World XI from 10 years ago. No just having a decent 5th bowler wouldn't be good enough.

And even if it was, Stokes still wouldn't be picked because literally Mitchell Marsh is a better bowler than him. And incase you try to dig up some bullshit "stats", keep in mind Marsh has to bowl on Australian roads and Stokes gets to bowl in English greentop. Stokes is a manlet and cant swing the ball and they bowl around the same pace.

Fucking hell I was going to make fun of him for being a turbomanlet but that is just sickeningly sad

>He told her that he had been playing soccer with her son on the morning of October 31, but had not seen him since. Duma had scratches on his face, which he said were from a fight with his girlfriend. He promised to help find Nawaaz. But Duma's conscience caught up with him later that day. He broke down in a conversation with an off-duty policeman, and then led him to Nawaaz's body. It was headless. Duma made a shocking confession: he had murdered Nawaaz on the advice of a sangoma, or traditional healer, that he had enlisted to solve his family problems.

>Sangomas remain a part of many African cultures. In South Africa they are prevalent in rural areas but can also be found in the townships of major cities, helping Xhosa or Zulu clients overcome illness, bad luck or money problems. Brewing traditional beer and overseeing celebrations are some of their more light-hearted duties; they can also be enlisted to cast spells on enemies, sometimes with the aim of killing them. Usually such spells require ingredients from nature - the bark of a particular tree, the hair or faeces of some animal - but in Duma's case he was told that he needed an Indian person's head. Nawaaz was the perfect victim.

>Nawaaz's burial took place without a head. That was found a few days later, after Duma told the police where to look for it. It was wrapped in plastic bags in a gum plantation just off the road that leads into Umzinto. Duma also revealed the identity of the traditional healer who allegedly assisted him with the murder, and soon after, the police arrested Elias Sihle Mchunu; he carried the nickname "Maak 'n Plan" (Afrikaans for "make a plan"). The pair will go on trial in August.

fucking this, I come back here from a hiatus and he's STILL picking a fight with literally everyone he encounters.

Maybe he should take a break from cricket and the internet in general. He literally spends every day on /sp/. I am starting to think he's seriously unstable. Honestly how he hasn't killed himself by now is beyond me. In fact part of the reason I'm posting now is because I know it gives him some cause in his pathetic life, so enabling this prolongs his miserable existence for longer so we can all laugh at him.

Me on the other hand? I'm doing fine, making bank at my new job and found myself a missus. It's amazing what you can achieve when you take a break from your pathetic e-persona and stop taking cricket, especially test shitcket seriously. Anyone who can't recognize tests and ODIs are worthless, redundant formats should be lobotomized.

I'm out.

They all do this, I know that Tendulkar used to come over to england to have either Newburry or Salix make his bats while he followed them round autistically telling them how to do it
