#1 I'd vote for England. South Africa is less peaceful than heretofore.

#3 I mean seriously, I'd like to be Bowler just once, teach folks about crowding the wicket. A little head-huntery would liven up the sport considerbly IMHO.

#4 Shipman, one of my good friends thinks the batter in US baseball should be allowed to take the bat with him to first base after he hits the ball.

#5 A little head-huntery would liven up the sport considerbly IMHO.

In cricket it's a legal and common tactic to aim the ball at the batter's head or body (although the ball has to bounce first).

I watched a game last week where, in the space of an hour, one batter had a broken finger from trying to defend his body from the ball and a second went to hospital with a suspected broken jaw.
