For most effective yet unorthodox batting stance I cite probably the
greatest Batsman to grace the game (yes I know we are all meant to hail
the Don, but in my opinion he was second best) Gilbert Jessop. (By WG)
This one got me laughing. |

When you win the toss - bat.
If you are in doubt, think about it - then bat. If you have very big doubts, consult a colleague - then bat. |

Listen WG, I agree with minimurali that you do talk a lot of sense but whenever I ask you a question about something you've said or criticise something you have said you are extremely rude and I'm not trying to get on your nerves or anything. I'm just wanting to learn more about cricket. It's nothing personal. Calling me statsboy is a bit immature. I have not seen a lot of cricket as I have only been playing for 18 months so sometimes I have to look at the stats to have an opinion as I have never seen them play. Another thing, I read a lot of cricket history books and they contain many primary sources and that is how I often make opinions on subjects in cricket.
So to sum up I am sorry if I have offended you but please try not to be so rude whenever I ask you a question. I wouldnt criticise you if I didn't want to know your opinion on something. Edited by 70_degree_spin - 30 January 2007 at 6:55pm |

venom2011 : I doubt they can bowl SA out for 120, but any international team has a chance of winning if it has a great day.
Even the Bangladeshis beat Australia 143no : Even more remarkable, England beat Australia.

This was after Pak lost 3-1 to SA, and Aus were on the brink of losing 3-0 to NZ.

In troubled times, being philosophical helps a great deal, it helps you to remain sane and not do any further damage.

Excellent! At first I called it an oxymoron, though technically it isn't. Still made me laugh though. |

I would like to take this opportunity to point out that Shane Watson is a Queenslander.
I am probably the proudest Queenslander alive despite living in Tasmania! He is a fantastic cricketer and will be a rigid member of Australian cricket (whatever discipline) for many years to come. QUEENSLANDER! Edited by Boof - 04 August 2007 at 9:03am |
