The avatar challenge

Need more from Watto! He averages 42 so far, annoyingly since he's bowled about as well as i thought he would but it's not coming off.

It looks like ret will have two weeks of avatar from me anyway...

It'll take a performance from Dravid like the one Clarke's just produced to turn this around.

I would say "it's worth an avatar bet". :laugh: But I'd imagine those who fancy tributing Kumble (which numbers quite a few) might want to do it for more than a few days.
 

99*

International Debutant
Brendon McCullum to score more then Brad Haddin in the two NZ v AUS test matches.

Any takers?

(Well aware the matches do not start for ages, but want to get this done early.)

If selected, Krejza to not take a single pole of anyone batting higher than 7. For the series. Avatar for a month. Any takers?
I'll take you on. :ph34r:
Wellllllllll, there's ITSTL. Krejza may have been smashed, but somehow he's got 3 top-order wickets already. :wacko:

BTW Corey, not that it's relevant here, but you should've said "unless they've been promoted as nightwatchman".

I'd like to get that George Bush photo out of your avatar, but I have a feeling McCullum will bat at least an extra innings than Haddin in the series so I'll pass on the challenge. :happy:

Shane Watson to average under 35 with the ball in India. (Most seem to think he throws pies). Anyone on for a challenge?
will take it but he has to bowl minimum 40 overs in series(avg 10 per test)
2 weeks then
Well Watto came good in the end, finishing with a series bowling average of 32. Unfortunately, unless Oz pull one out of the bag tomorrow i'll have to give an avatar to ret on India's series victory.

Now i just have to think of something for biased indian :happy:

Sheesh, Watson took 3 for not-many in Australia's first bowl of the series and 4 for not-many in the eighth... in the meantime taking 3 for plenty. Someone got a bit lucky. :p

In the end, yes, but given how he bowled throughout the series i think an average of 32 is a fair reflection. He was as good as any Australian.

Maybe, but that's not saying much.

For most of the series he averaged 80-odd.
Still bowled well though, luckless on the flattest pitches since time began. 32 is definitely fair. I made the bet because i thought Watson's bowling a lot better than most of the forum did, and i think he did enough to justify that.
