Shoaib Akhtar v Brett Lee

[marc71178]

Well, if you made a typo, you were attempting to lie.

I was doing nothing of the sort.

I made a genuine mistake, which didn't really alter the point I was making (since it was obviously going on about things that have happened in the past)

You then misinterpreted it, and accused me of twisting words.

Now you call me a liar?

 

[Eclipse]

I saw every single one from NatWest Series 2001 to the South Africa 7-ODI series in March-April 2002. I didn't see any before or after. And as I've said, before seems to be a different era if the Test career is anything to go by.

Well there we go!!

you have not seen Brett Lee bowl well and therefor I can undrestand you not rateing him.

During that time Brett Lee struggeld even In ODI's.
He was actualy droped form ODI's for a match or two after that series in South Africa. His form in ODI's since though has been amazing he has avraged 18 with an econ of about 4.3 and strike rate about 22.

If you had been watching him for longer part's of his carear your opinion would be diffrent.

 

[Craig]

I felel I'm in a good position to judge on Brett Lee.

I have seen all bar one of his Tests and about 97% of his ODIs. I couldnt care less about ther Aus-Bangladesh series.

I made a genuine mistake, which didn't really alter the point I was making (since it was obviously going on about things that have happened in the past)

I totally reversed what you were saying.

 

[FRAZ]

Pakistani?

AND YOU "iNDIAN"?????

 

[Craig]

No.

 

[FRAZ]

Your taunt was suggesting that ... Still think again are you sure you are not ???

 

[Craig]

Of course not.

my skin colour shows to me I'm not, and my name Craig isnt Indian.

 

[Tom Halsey]

FRAZ, what are you on about?

 

[djsj]

Brett Lee is inconsistant. He can bowl in an ODI match well but a test match is out of the question.

 

[Tom Halsey]

True. He is allright in ODI's, but in tests, forget it.

 

[djsj]

well said

 

[Tom Halsey]

Thankyou. Shoaib is turning into a real good test bowler.

 

[Armadillo]

it is obviously clear if you pit these 2 together Lee has no chance. did anyone c Shoaib against nz.everytime he started a spell he took a wicked.

 

[Thelwell]

Shoaib's looking to be a better test bowler, as Lee is struggling desperately at the moment. But think Lee is better ODI bowler,

Shoaib bowls those 95 mph short long hops which when the field is in the circle can disappear over gully for 6, as tendulkar showed in 2003 world cup. He's bee ngreat in the test Vs. NZ to give him his dues.

 

[maximoose]

be fair, tendulkar is a classy batsman.
i do agree with all your other points though.

 

[Richard]

Shoaib's form in all cricket since his Pakistan recall (after being dropped from the Cherry Blossom Cup squad) has been superb.
He's had good spells before but this one has lasted longer than the rest.

 

[FRAZ]

Of course not.

my skin colour shows to me I'm not, and my name Craig isnt Indian.

hey hey , THE guy gave very good pics , and that was absolutely right that it was the biggest wicket and not only that he also bowled Dravid , Shoaib was on a hattrick. These pictures are wonderful and I liked them . Alright. And if some one says , Its a Pakistani . Its not a taunt or what ?????
