Dead right!!!! I say immediately after finishing a test match they should fly to the next venue and kick off bright and early the next day!

Another thing , I want 120 overs per day , like in the 1900's and the abolition of helmets , protective padding , pads , gloves and boxes!!!

Let's see REAL men out there - we want blood (lots of that!) sweat (tons and tons of that) and tears!! (especially from Australians!!)

No more mamby-pamby wimp stuff , let's take the game back into the bush!!

Sledger making an absolute mockery our of Cricket_Mstrs claim that cricketers don't deserve the rest.

Can i nominate this quote now. But seriously Gough helped England get those extra runs at the tail. he made 10+ runs in Shoaib's over.

Oh! and I thought he's supposed to be the main strike bowler for England so bad bowling or sloppy fielding couldn't be discounted by a bit better knock at No.10 .

He has been more than a replacement and has been more than effective and will be more if he cuts down that boundary ball which he gives every year .

I hope you mean every over.

A boundary ball a year might be considered good in some parts

That's a good idea Sledger. But while cleaning the thread up, please don't delete those which include authors own comments in subquotes.

And great job Claps! Sledger is using the Edit button quite extensively now.

Those who do a lotta work, make a lotta mistakes. Those who do less work make less mistakes. Those who don't work make no mistakes at all and those who don't make any mistakes get promoted. You know everybody needs a promotion. Sledger seems to be an exception though.

You will be able to make poll when you can because you can't put more than 10 people on single poll. Unless if you take the polls.

And we have to take out you, clobber, and sledger, because we know that they will win for sure if they are in it.

How can they amuse you with their interest?

because of nelson mandela getting chucked unfairly into political prison,
they were separate from the rest of the world. they also missed the first 2
rugby world cups and the first one they entered they won!

Because they demanded ICC to confine cricket uniform to bermuda shorts for tests, bikini for ODIs and for 20/20 ................. well I think you've got some imagination, don't you?

I'm only 13. Don't ever say that again.

I found this pretty funny as it happened to me. Espescially what spin wiz did (did not post it here. Hopefully spin wiz will) was really funny. It was in a thread in the International Section. It's the one where it talks about Richard Hadlee's father. I said that it's always great for a father when his son acheives more than him and vettori no.2 asked me if I was a father. I said that I was only 13 and also not to say that again. In the background spin wizard was laughing.

I still hate you for that.

That was the amount of posts he used to post when he first came in. Although most of them were trash just like mine when I had just come in. I think -JP- would remember me the best. The first post that I posted was a poll asking "who is better, Dravid or Ganguly" and -JP- deleted it in an instant.
