    Ponting "THE CAPTAIN"

    There are plenty of arrogant internet users. Doesn't mean that they are right, just means they bleat more.

    Why no Border in allstar team?

    Why on earth are they not?

    Why no Border in allstar team?

    Ah, the pre-packaged answer. Just because ssome internerd says nonsense doesn't mean it is so. All players must be judged on their environment and their contributions to that environment.

    Why no Border in allstar team?

    I'm not a fan of Lehmann's shuffling technique, but he was very effective in one day cricket. He is the only player I would give way to and is the reason I included teh 'pretty much' tbh.

    Why no Border in allstar team?

    ODI cricket at the time, with regards to both opposition and Australian cricket.

    Muralitharan - javelin thrower

    Perhaps, but it is an unintentional advantage. Let us worry about the intentional breaches of the laws of cricket first. I have yet to see proof that Warne's flippers or wrongun's require extra straightening, though I am open to the fact that they do so. Please link to the proof thanks...

    IMO pretty much every player in your post is even more overrated.

    That's nice. IMO in context Border was a great odi player.

    Ponting "THE CAPTAIN"

    I think Ponting is underrated as a captain. I'd hate to be thought of as a fanboy as I think he is a childish ****, but I think he has a much better cricket brain than he is given credit for.

    Why no Border in allstar team?

    I was over better player arguments over the internet many years ago. I'm simply happy to state my disagreement and move on.

    Why no Border in allstar team?

    Well, there isn't much point going into detail over a difference of opinion. Neither of us will convince the other.

    Why no Border in allstar team?

    I disagree.

    Muralitharan - javelin thrower

    It is intentional because he has been to the lab and found that the delivery that turns the other way requires about 10 degrees extra straightening. Before that date it would be fine, but since that date, every time he bowls it he is intentionally bowling a delivery that requires more...

    Muralitharan - javelin thrower

    By intentionally straitening his arm. Choosing to bowl a delivery that requires more straightening than the alternative stock delivery is intentional straightening. Keep in mind that the laws of cricket say nothing about 15 degrees, that is just an ICC rule.

    The Anti-Gallop Thread

    Gallop is a joke. He is left for dead by the administrators of every other code of football played in Australia.

    Muralitharan - javelin thrower

    I guess the key thing with Murali is that he can choose to bowl a delivery that requires about 10 degrees more straightening than his stock delivery. Every time he bowls that delivery he is contravening the both the laws of cricket and the spirit of cricket whilst staying within the ICC parameters.

    He should be there. I can't imagine why he isn't.

    Talking himself up in The Age today. Canada will probably beat England.
