Where does Ross Taylor rank?

[Tim]

Well they reckon his position is #3. He's batted there for 3 years for Central Districts and NZ were keen to protect him a little in the CB Series so they played him at #4.

 

[Fiery]

He's the the most searched name in Cricinfo atm: Top 5: Ross Taylor | Adam Gilchrist | Darrell Hair | Yuvraj Singh | Viv Richards

[Richard]

As a Richard fan from way back I don't want to harp on this too much, but it's pretty funny that a guy with such an indepth knowledge of things like first chance averages was completely unaware of the existence of an entire ethnic group that more or less monopolises a large part of the Earth's surface.

Well I wasn't unaware of Papua New Guinea or Western Samoa, but I'd never heard the term Polynesian used before. Have probably met loads of them, obviously.

 

[Swervy]

Well I wasn't unaware of Papua New Guinea or Western Samoa, .

I thought you were English...not American Richard

 

[Smudge]

Papua New Guinea isn't part of Polynesia...

 

[Richard]

No.

I am indeed British. Why?

 

[Fiery]

I am indeed British. Why?

Just surprised that a British person with your intelligence had never heard the word "Polynesian". Something I would have expected from an American. I guess living where I am it's obviously well known but just surprised that it's not something well-known up in your part of the world.

 

[Richard]

It's very probable I've heard it and just thought nothing of it so not taken note.

 

[Dick Rockett]

I am indeed British. Why?

He's referring to the much ridiculed tendency of Americans to be unaware of the world outside their borders.

Correct

British rugby writers would have you convinced Polynesia is just a rugby boarding school for future All Blacks...

Since when was this not the case?

 

[Smudge]

I'm not even going to get into that in any great detail... it makes my veins pop.

Hahaha Volty. You did bring it up...
