Re: Why isn't the referral system used in ODI's - Disgraceful umpiring robbed Austral I'M NOT SOOKING ABOUT PONTING! *sooks for several days across multiple threads*

Re: Australia/NZ and the hosting of major tournaments This is not correct at all. Every country hosts the world cup every 20 years or so, with the occasional extra tournament in India because of the BCCI voting bloc. The suggestion that there is some kind of conspiracy to prevent Australia...

Re: Australia in New Zealand I don't know whether the blatant, unabashed sooking or the incredible hyperbole is more amusing

Re: Test XI Selection Thread - NZ Tour He hasn't You haven't made any arguments. You are making spurious assertions based on 'gut feelings' and 'intuition'.

Re: Test XI Selection Thread - NZ Tour "Smith is only pretending to be a top-quality bat at the moment. He shouldn't be picked because his stats are really good and that somehow indicates that he is not a world-class batsman" Do you see how ridiculous the above statement is, Boris? Sadly, it...

Re: And the latest news in Pakistani Cricket... PCB is found to be full of inept, corrupt lunatics. Stop the presses.

Re: Steve Smith...PACK YOUR BAGS White missing out is interesting. To me it suggests that they are confident that Clarke will be returning, because despite Smith's promise, the conservative (and hence correct in the eyes of Hilditch and co.) option would be to go with White.

Re: addressing a dissmissed batsman Whoops, forgot my <humour> tags :rolleyes:

Re: Last person to post on this thread wins 7 He couldn't play it consistently well enough and that contributed to his sacking. I'm p sure it's on the documentary on the definitely maybe dvd.

Re: Last person to post on this thread wins 7 Fun fact: Tony McCarroll was fired because he wasn't good enough to play drums for Bring It On Down

Re: Watsons wicket celebration? Is this a pisstake?

Re: Steve Smith...PACK YOUR BAGS Fair enough, based on form I think he'd do as good a job as anyone at number 6, but the selectors do seem to like waiting for youngsters to get a few good seasons under their belt (with Phil Hughes being the obvious exception). Personally if North was to get...

Re: Steve Smith...PACK YOUR BAGS The tests begin after the Australian domestic season ends and are completed before the English domestic season begins. 'All Tour' is something like a fortnight, as there are only two tests. Yeah but you can't always take an 'agree to disagree' stance on...

Re: Steve Smith...PACK YOUR BAGS Please defend your stance Boris. The old 'You make a good point but I'll ignore it anyway' is a cop out.

Re: Steve Smith...PACK YOUR BAGS He's good for batting. Whatever artificial tag gets placed on him doesn't make a bit of difference. Just because some believe him to be a 'bowling all-rounder' instead of a 'batting all-rounder' it doesn't mean his average is going to inevitably drop to 30...

Re: Steve Smith...PACK YOUR BAGS Where did you get the idea that he isn't a proper batsman? All this media spin about him being the next Warne shouldn't detract from the fact the he is good enough to be selected on his batting along, and could easily hold down the number 6 spot for Australia.

Re: Australia in New Zealand I predict that not only will Australia win, Watson and Ponting will pool their immense brain power to validate the Riemann Hypothesis whilst they are batting.
