Many careers and lives been ruined by Samiitis, Donate today.Oh yeah for sure. Had everything going for him to be a really good test bowler, except a pea sized brain.

Yeah. Called Anderson in 2006 and Broad in 2009 on here. Thought it was a given tbh.No one has mentioned this, but did anyone expect Jimmy Anderson and Stuart Broad to have such long careers and so many wickets?
Also said England would win in 2010-11 iirc. And that Graeme Swann would be a top offie.Yeah. Called Anderson in 2006 and Broad in 2009 on here. Thought it was a given tbh.
Still think Hope might do it tbh.I thought Shai Hope and Kusal Mendis would go on to establish themselves as genuine Test class batsman, but was unsold on Babar Azam
Safe to say that hasn't quite worked out...
Agree.Still think Hope might do it tbh.
Dude, he has played 6 tests in Australia and has a start in every single innings he played with his lowest score being 23 and an average of 60+. Looking at Pant play gives off the impression that he is an inconsistent, hit-or-miss player but the the reality is that he is the type of player who'll give you 20-40 nearly every innings with the occasional world class knock.i stand with @cnerd123 in his take on pant still being a horrendous test batsman who can play brilliant innings when he fires, and both of his epic vigils over the last two tests don't do anything to disprove that.
Mendis quite possibly could too imo, he's still fairly young I think? Feel like he's done a fair bit more in his career so far then Hope tooStill think Hope might do it tbh.
Good to see you owning these things mate. It must be difficult when you get these sort of things wrong. Chin up. You'll be right.i led the charge against failed test opener bj watling becoming nzs keeper and was convinced for years matt henry was tim southee mk 2 and wanted neil wagner to just get out of the way already.
similarly, i was spewing when tom blundell was asked to open in melbourne.
Hope is an excellent ODI batsman tbf to him, far superior to Mendis. But agree with you in tests, Mendis has achieved far more. Basically Shai had one ATG test and that is it.Mendis quite possibly could too imo, he's still fairly young I think? Feel like he's done a fair bit more in his career so far then Hope too
Found it tricky to reply to that while trying to avoid any cheap puns, but I would genuinely like you to be right on that oneStill think Hope might do it tbh.
I'd like the West Indies to ditch their insistence that he bat top 3 when he plays - he's done a lot better at 4 and 5 - but that's probably unlikely given that's where positions keep opening up, and he does a good job there in ODIs.Found it tricky to reply to that while trying to avoid any cheap puns, but I would genuinely like you to be right on that one
aside from that absolute hack of an innings in melbourne i totally agree he's been amazing hereDude, he has played 6 tests in Australia and has a start in every single innings he played with his lowest score being 23 and an average of 60+. Looking at Pant play gives off the impression that he is an inconsistent, hit-or-miss player but the the reality is that he is the type of player who'll give you 20-40 nearly every innings with the occasional world class knock.
How is your favourite #BetterThanWatling keeper Tim Weston going these days, anyway?i led the charge against failed test opener bj watling becoming nzs keeper and was convinced for years matt henry was tim southee mk 2 and wanted neil wagner to just get out of the way already.

Haha I don't think he ever made that argument. Weston had already kind of given up keeping when Watling was being pushed forward (mainly because CD had KvW).How is your favourite #BetterThanWatling keeper Tim Weston going these days, anyway?
