Nathan Lyon v. Ravi Jadeja

that's a stupid rename. it doesn't even make sense.

border forced a group of 12 year olds to eventually become a dominant unit. you could use bordering to mean being a leader, a **** or whatever but saying "smalishah stop bordering i'm pretty sure at 25/1 your team will make it beyond 26 all out" doesn't work, and that makes it unfunny.

"gambhiring" doesn't really work either I'll grant. if you were to use an indian for something i'd go for "gangulying" when someone cries about a pitch where the players, not the deck, were at fault for being rubbish and i think that's quite relevant on current CW so thank you ta i'll trademark that.

if you're going to rename gambhiring make it "willis-ing" imo. closest example i can think of. "Rigoring" if it's self aware dark sarcastic gloom characteristic of when mark richardson gets pissed off.

Bordering should be to remember something as better than it was. Now that'd be a good way to wind up Burgey.

Plus if someone called me the worst bowler to get 200 wickets I'd still be pretty happy. At least it's most likely 200 more wickets than you.....

IDC for trying to compare Lyon with all the cricketers in the history of the game.


I just want Spikey to say Jadeja is better

Lyon should have had a Hauritz or Wiseman career. That he's been able to take so many wickets is a testament to how useful the rest of Australia's bowling attacks have been during his era. He gets the "Oh good, it's Lyon, let's spank him" treatment.

Also, calling Kallis a bad bowler is hilariously laughable.

Kallis when he was young, was a 140KPH out-swing demon who took everyones wickets.

Jadeja seems to be one of those guys destined to go through his career being under-rated (like Gillespie maybe?). Funnily enough, it probably works to his advantage as long as they see Ashwin as the main threat.
