Who had the better start to their posting career? mr_mister or harsh.ag?

14 year old Pews vs 14 year old Dawood a close call too.

And people say my fifties thread is stupid.

Who are these people? Bring them to me. I'll take them to Kolkata, and make them stand in long queue outside the most congested Durgapuja pandals in 40 degrees heat.

 

[weldone]

to my credit I've wanted to discuss cricket in detail my whole life and never found a forum til well, 3 months ago. It's not like my mates want to chat about who's better out of Atherton and Stewart.

Stewart. Now, don't create a thread for this.

Back to the thread topic, Vinod Kambli averaged 93.7 after 10 tests [within his first 7 tests he scored 4 centuries - 2 of them doubles]

...and he played 7 more after that

14 year old Pews vs 14 year old Dawood a close call too.

We need the poet back.

 

[weldone]

We need the poet back.

I'd rather hate abilities

 

[mr_mister]

yeah Kambli is another good example. Crazy they didnt persist with him

 

[harsh.ag]

Stewart. Now, don't create a thread for this.

He already did

 

[Prince EWS]

has it been that many? lol. i might slow it down then

Nah don't listen to him. Sometimes I find your threads a little bit specific (this is a good example of that) but often even when they are specifically comparing two players they evolve into more general discussions about broader ideas (when they don't end up devolving into Warne v Murali, Tendulkar v someone or Williamson v Smith), and that's always cool.

god harsh did i run over your dog or something. you and lillian thompson really do not like me

Lillian Thomson doesn't like anything so I wouldn't take that too personally.

 

[mr_mister]

ha, noted. its a shame though he seems pretty insightful, just cruel. harsh just comes across as condescending, but far out it is 2am here i get a bit over-sensitive at night

 

[OverratedSanity]

I think we can all agree harsh is a ****. You go make another boring thread mr_mister, all power to you.

 

[mr_mister]

thanks mate, i'll think one up ASAP. perhaps Slater v Taylor

 

[OverratedSanity]

I hope it isn't another draft though...

 

[mr_mister]

yar, I'm drafted out. finally.

 

[harsh.ag]

What a girl

I think we can all agree harsh is a ****.

Touche

My initial thought was Hussey. Because no-one in my lifetime's had a better start - and it just seemed to go on and on and on.

But then when you take account of the fact that Hussey was (imo) a much better player than Adams, Adams' freakish start, though a bit more short-lived, was in its way just as remarkable.

Harsh thinks he's a tough guy but…
