  1. ...Stuart Clark? Ye gods..

    Douggles McBollinger over him for sure. Stuart Clark is something like...seventh on my depth chart of Aussie fast bowlers.

    Don't get me wrong, if Hauritz wasn't going well I'd put Dougy in too. But what's Clark done wrong? He's incredibly accurate, can swing the ball at pace, gets wickets and doesn't cost much. Maybe he got injured at the wrong time, when they were looking for youngsters. I don't think McKay is ready yet either. Even give poor Bracks another chance ahead of him (I know they won't do it but it had to be said).

  2. IMO the current Aussie test lineup should be

    1. Simon Katich

    2. Shane Watson

    3. Ricky Ponting

    4. Michael Clarke ©

    5. David Hussey

    6. Mike Hussey (vc)

    7. Brad Haddin (wk)

    8. Mitchell Johnson

    9. Nathan Hauritz

    10. Stuart Clark

    11. Ben Hilfenhaus

    12th Man. Shaun Tait/Doug Bollinger

    For Pakistan probably something like

    1. Salman Butt

    2. Imran Farhat

    3. Younis Khan

    4. Mohammad Yousuf

    5. Shoaib Malik

    6. Umar Akmal

    7. Kamran Akmal

    8. Mohammad Aamer

    9. Mohammad Asif

    10. Danish Kaneria

    11. Shoaib Akhtar

    12th Man. Mohammad Sami

  3. Terry and Barry Ferguson should go set up their own nation they can captain. With blackjack! And hookers!

    In fact, forget about the theme park and the blackjack! Aw, screw the whole thing.

    And Eddie, no matter if it is illogical (not saying it is or isn't) people will always see their country as a chance. Being from the Netherlands, you'd be right to think so.

  4. What does everyone think about Afridi's comments that every team tampers?

    and I haven't been as into the Cricket this summer as I usually am.. but has Nathan Bracken been in the ODI's or is he injured. Surely his past one day form would secure him the left arm spot in the team, one of the best death bowlers I believe

    No, bloody selectors with their Bevan excuse again, "You're too old".

    At least I would assume that seeing as they continue to play McKay and Siddle who aren't nearly as good. And I'm a Victorian, so that's saying something. <_<

  5. I know I posted Kaval twice... my fingers hurt from editing those pics that I'm just leaving it right now, haha. Also, I have no idea how to put pics in a spoiler... =/

    [_spoiler_] to start and [/_spoiler_] to finish. Take out the underscores, I used them so it wouldn't actually create a spoiler :D

  6. Anyone know why Yousef cracked the shits at the umps after the 34th over when they were bowling? I know the ball was changed which it should have been... but it was as if he didn't think it was the ball he chose... he kept having words at the change of overs with the umps for quite some time.

    According to Greigy the umpy put the Aussies' ball in one one pocket and the Pakistanis' in the other. Yousuf thought they had got them mixed up (played the ball he chose first), but Tony didn't think so. Meaning that Yousuf was probably right ^_^

  7. His incident with the chair ump went something like...

    Match point for Roddick, Bellucci's shot called out.

    Ump: Bellucci is challenging the call etc.

    Ball is in, ump gives point (rightly so) to Bellucci

    AR: That was out, I saw it with my own eyes! I could've got there anyway. It's not your job to say if I could get it or not (Which is incorrect, that was exactly the umpire's job in this situation)

    Something similar happens for the next point too.

    Roddick then finishes the match with an ace.

    AR: How about that? Was that one in?

    Refuses to shake hands with ump after match, and goes on an f-laced tirade, telling umpire to "use your f'n eyes"

    So yes, I have good reason to think so.
