    I prefer Knight when he is in studio discussions more than I like him in the booth.

    ***Official*** South Africa in England

    I know it is, but it just seems that by saying we need a specialist bat at 6 is saying that the Top 5 isn't capable of it ever. Obviously we are not suddenly going to go 350-4 every innings, but we need to have the belief that we can do it and put the faith in the Top 5 getting them, the 6-9...

    ***Official*** South Africa in England

    You referred to Gilchrist bailing Australia out from the #7 in an earlier post. And equally, good batsmen will often score runs and not throw away their wicket. Teams scoring 200-1 is also a distinct possibility and can happen to any team. What is your point here? Why in your view does 6...

    ***Official*** South Africa in England

    I just think it's a negative approach Goughy, we are essentially saying that the Top 5 will fail, therefore we must have an 'extra bat' to 'bail them out' You even used the term 'bail out' when citing Gilchrist as an example. You also used the term 'Plan B'. To me it's negative thinking using...

    ***Official*** South Africa in England

    In theory, it should be irrelevant whether Fred bats 6,7,8 or even lower. Because, again in theory, the Top 5 should be performing to potential and should (once again, in theory) be getting 350/400 runs before the 4th wicket falls and the #6 is due in. Nick Knight backed this up to a point on...

    Nail hit on head, pretty much what I was getting at.

    Twenty20 Finals Day 2009

    More like you randomly decide who is allowed to break the rules and who isn't? Is accusing an innocent new member of being a smurf account allowed?8-)

    Twenty20 Finals Day 2009

    My mother went to the supermarket the other day and purchased a nice piece of fillet steak. My father played a round of golf and shot a 78.

    Vaughan resigns as England captain... so does Collingwood

    My hope is that with the added responsibility of the captaincy, the moments of stupidity that you mention, may well be reduced.

    Vaughan resigns as England captain... so does Collingwood

    Very good post. In fact at some point earlier today, I even contemplated the theory that we should give Cook the skipper's job right now, but on reflection, this seems a better bet long term.

    Vaughan resigns as England captain... so does Collingwood

    Go on then.......:laugh: I honestly don't see it makes a massive difference really, I'm just as happy having one unified skipper as I am having two.

    Fat Gray vs Banger Tresco

    No idea what you are on about. I use PavlovsDog for a number of forums/ID's.

    Fat Gray vs Banger Tresco

    No, I can assure you I am a brand new poster who only found this forum whilst searching for news on the Vaughan resignation. I just found the comparison bizarre and a non issue, considering Tres is no longer a Test or ODI player, therefore it's a pointless comparison.

    Fat Gray vs Banger Tresco

    Fair enough, but it's still Biff by a landslide for me.

    Fat Gray vs Banger Tresco

    With all due respect, what is the point of this, Banger is finished anyway. It's a non issue.
