Ganguly's sixes

[Richard]

Says who? Just because it is unorthodox doesn't mean it shouldn't be given a name. Thats just stupid. The reverse sweep is unorthodox but it had a name. Sorry Richard but you don't have the authority to decide whether or not it should have a name.

I do, however, have the authority to say I believe there's no reason to dub them.
The reverse-sweep is simply so obvious that it's impossible to say anything other than a "reversed sweep". Because that's precisely what it is.
Same as a "slogged sweep".

this is really getting silly and looks to me as if richard is just playing devils advocate here....

i can see richards point but for him to claim that he has the authority to decide what is orthodox and what isnt is just feceitous really...

 

[Richard]

And I've claimed as such where, exactly?

 

[sledger]

see above "i do" , and besides even if you havnt put it in words we all know your thinking it,

 

[Richard]

Which quite clearly stats something other than what you have claimed.
And just because you might think I'm thinking it, doesn't actually mean I am.
