Agreed that they're all worse than the last battle. Afridi though just.

Referring to yourself in the third person is a heinous crime and should be severely punished. Clarke is saved by the fact he's up against Afridi though.

Grecian feels it's perfectly acceptable to do so, if your as super-ace as Grecian is.

Might as well let Afridi win something. I do like the rogue sometimes and at other times I really hate him.

People forgetting how big of a **** Ganguly was in his playing days it seems. Afridi a cheating **** though so special mention to him.

Michael Clarke is your god btw. Only reason why LHC has him in this battle is because he was adamant Hussey would end up the better cricketer than him and now he's tasting.

Haha, great post.

Speaking for myself I've never managed to summon up any particular hatred for Clarke, and he went up in my estimation by putting a night of filth with la Bingle ahead of a prolonged wait to participate in the infantile ****ing Team Song.

Ganguly of course a prickly customer but it's wrong to hold that against him too much; and after all he's up against a serial cheat in Shahid Afridi. There's much to like about Afridi as a player, but his well-recorded acts of dishonesty have to count against him here.

A pity that the great man Trevor Bailey was ever in this competition, btw; the more so that he should have "won" that last round.

Must confess to having nominated Bailey - I think he would have been delighted to be in the competition and to have progressed - he could be a cantankerous bastard, and was very proud of that

His nomination was a disgrace. You're a disgrace.

Was sorely tempted to draw him with Cronje and Malik itbt.

Ganguly. For a certain period he was like an infected limb in the body for Indian team that no one was able to remove.

Ganguly, Afridi just seems like his wires aren't connected.
