1. Thanks for the advice.

2. I take it that you have not seen very much of Bracken or Williams. Don't try to judge on small glimpses of players. Nearly every Aussie agrees, these guys shouldn't make the side. Include Kasper.
Kasper!! Are you serious? He's absolutely brilliant...eons better than Bracken, Williams and Lee as well! He was easily he best bowler in the Pura Cup this season and he's been bowling extremely well for Australia.

Weird how all the Aussies hate Williams and Bracken, while we Indians think they did a fantastic job.

The one and only Craig McMillan.

No! Not the reverse sweep!!!
Haha quote from McMillan...

"There are acceptable ways to get out, and I'm not afraid to get out in an unacceptable way"

What kind of an attitude is that? A s***te one thats what...

Have you seen the way Smith has gotten himself out in Test matches thus far?
 

Craig

Craig McMillan
Andrew Flintoff - does have a history of playing like a millon bucks only to get out to a 5c shot
Ramnaresh Sarwan
Stephen Fleming
Mark Richardson
Boeta Dippenaar
Marcus Trescothick - plays so well on occasions only to throw it all away. Same applies for Fleming, Richardson, and Sarwan.

but its only been 5 tests so far and he averages nearly 40.....if he carried on getting himself out playing stupid shots then he would be a frustrating player.

ajit agarkar. i hate that guy :@
i want to play in his place.
After 6 wkts at Adelaide, all Indians should be indebted to him for the biggest victory in Indian history in 2 decades. Dravid's 233 would hv been as useless as Sachin's 242 if he didn't get those wkts... So I dont see any reason to hate him !! He might be frustating yeah !! ;)

Flintoff - did have a history - past.

Not quite sure how Richardson is frustrating when he's one of the best at his job in the business.

Dippenaar isn't good enough - fullstop.

you only have to go back to the WI to look at some of his rash dismissals(sarwan terminating) and even in the first test against NZ where he kept coming down the track to try and smash the pace bowlers out of the park.... unless you're convinced after just 2 tests that hes put that complete behind him?

I get frustrated with Ashley Giles hes a spinner who doesnt spin the ball! :blink:
and despite not turning the ball he happens to be the best(or at least as good as any) spin bowler in the country :p
