    When did he play the reverse? I remember his little paddle sweep off Hauritz but not a reverse.

    Reckon that must be the shot they were referring to. He got grief all summer long for that one.
    I'm just saying

    It really is hard to imagine a more incomprehensible shot by a top class batsman than Mark Waugh's reverse sweep.

    Kallis backing away and trying to drive a McGrath yorker in the 07 semi-final looked pretty dumb.

    Love to see some more of the 'perfectly executed...but what were they hoping for' variety.
    Just requests (or incredible play from Weerasundara etc.) will now hit Plunket Promise. Or access the vault from here.

    seems odd that we've made 40 posts without the name afridi being mentioned

    Micheal Clarke left a straight ball against Kiwis. I think it was either Oram or Bond, that was pretty hilarious!

    Didn't he nick out in the second dig? I remember him chasing a wide one from Southee and nicking it, having squirted one through before and playing and missing a few times. A bad shot no doubt, but not as awful as his charge and nick v SA.

    KP's pre-meditated paddle to Hauritz was right up there in 09 as well.

    Some of the other shots in this thread might be funny, or not well executed, but for bad surely we're talking irresponsible, poorly thought, let the team down etc. Not Tino Best trying to crash Ashley Giles for 12, just because it's on youtube.
