Glenn McGrath v Imran Khan v Dennis Lillee

[archie mac]

Please, denigrate Bangladesh as a Test side sure but that's plainly ridiculous. DKL last played in the Lilac Hill match almost 10 years ago when his son played, not to mention he's nearly 60! I wouldn't back DKL to get through a grade match these days. As for Imran, as great a bowler as he was in his pomp, he wasn't even taking regular wickets nor bowling above medium pace for the last few years of his career when he was much younger and fitter so now? Yeah right.

I will still back them

Can't you see he's having a larf??

No, Richard has already cracked two jokes this week making a third unlikely. What we have here is exaggeration to prove a point.

Seem to recall DKL doing pretty damn well even in his final Lilac Hill games, including said final one alongside his son. Nonetheless, I wasn't 100% serious. And yes, Imran I imagine struggles to bowl these days given he retired with shins which IIRR were fairly close to shattering and rendering him unable to walk again.

Yeah he did; 3/8, in fact, two of which were Shoaib Aktar and Mustaq Ahmed. He let his son do the heavy ball work.
