Triple posting is against the rules.
If you're not getting posts, all you can do is wait.

Have you maybe considered that people aren't posting, simply because it's not that good?

Or maybe they're annoyed by your impatience?

As for the design; it's fairly basic. There's nothing new there.

I would recommend you get rid of those random silhouettes at the top of the page.. or at least fill the space with something useful.

I wouldn't remove the silhouettes unless you are replacing them. At the moment they help distinguish the website as being about cricket. I think the design is fine. I would try and spice up the header though so the top banner navigation and other bar dont have the exact same background.

Hi Jamesey.. i do appologise for posting 3 times, i guess it was to provoke some sort of response, great ive got one now i think if people didnt like it, they probably would post dont you? they'd have something to say then wouldnt they

silhouettes are clearly there to show the theme of the site, and are quite a nice touch, so ive been told.

and as for basic, thats kinda what i was going for, seen as its a blog, dont ya think?

even so, thanks for your feedback, u clearly know what ur talking about

thanks for your feedback mikka

I would take a look at the line height of the type throughout the site, I have a feeling, tweaking that would show some instant improvements.

I agree with this. /\ Also, I was going to reply last night before heading to bed, but there wasn't much to reply on! It's a basic, simple theme (which of course isn't a bad thing). If it suits the owner and the blog, then it's cool. As for the silhouettes, I wouldn't remove the silhouettes. They add a little flavor to the site, and at the same time, letting everyone know what the site is about in general. However, I agree with the others, maybe touch up the header, spacing, and maybe do something with the border lines.

The layout is pretty simple.As T 20 is high tight entertainment and lots more colorful than oridinary cricket. So i think aliitle more color will spice up your blog.As of content,its really good. Try to add a picture gallery of different match action.
Good luck
