He does have an 80, he actually has a couple of 90s.Strauss has ODI hundreds, Vaughan dosent even have an 80.
No he dosent, the pundits were furious his top score is 80*He does have an 80, he actually has a couple of 90s.
Also, all of Strauss' ODI hundreds bar one have come against minnows, and the one that didn't came against a horribly weak WI side.
You've got to look beyond statistics. Strauss is a minnow-basher, which has been concealing his lack of ODI know-how for years now.

Yes, but that doesn't make Strauss any less shocking, just because he happens to have made runs against rubbish attacks. Vaughan's 90* actually came against Australia IIRC, so if he'd got those extra ten runs this thread might not have existed.Fine 90* thats still shocking for his reputation
who actually bowled really well today...maybe you havent watched it yet Richard (it wouldnt surprise me to be honest)Seriously, he who still holds-out any hope for either in ODIs is delusional. The two of them were dismissed today by Shaun Tait - a new low.
I did watch both dismissals - and both dragged-on nothing balls, playing with angled bats.who actually bowled really well today...maybe you havent watched it yet Richard (it wouldnt surprise me to be honest)
Calling-up Loye is posthumous now, though. Loye's time has come and gone.He was bowling V.well today TBH.
IMO just drop them both, Call up Mal Loye and some one else, thena ppoint Paul Collingwood as captain. Problem Solved.
Indeed. Tait bowled brilliantly, but Vaughan and Strauss were shocking.I did watch both dismissals - and both dragged-on nothing balls, playing with angled bats.
Tait may have bowled well but those 2 wickets (not so the Collingwood one) were terrible batting for which no credit can be attributed to the accuracy of the bowlers.
Couldn't agree moreIndeed. Tait bowled brilliantly, but Vaughan and Strauss were shocking.
Well Marcus Trescothick will obviously come back if he's recovered - he's only 31 and should make WC2011. And TBH, I think James Benning should be the man picked to partner him, though like Loye it does worry me a bit that he's a manufactured opener - in the First-Class game he's a middle-order batsman and, AFAIK, he's never opened before doing so for Surrey.Lets drop both of em, but who could replace them, long-term?
