Get him to bounce that Murphy showoff, then we'll see who'd "take him".

Yeah I doubt he'd be able to get that fast anymoreDoubt Kev's bouncers will be more than 70mph tbh.
He used to be rapido IIRC, somwhere around 140kph or something. Was a net bowler for SA actually.

I'd pay his airfare just to get him out of this count-er, I mean, see the pics that'd be taken of you, Gelman and him.

And I've love to prance up, toss the ball into the sky with the least effort imaginable, and bowl him neck and crop with one that turned square, before expelling a semi-bored yawn to emphasise the lack of effort us spinners supposedly put in to delivering the ball.
Failing that, I'd love to play an impecable forward defence to haroon's bowling! Not English though, which is a shame.

Don't think Kev ever claimed he was any shakes at Aussie Rules, though - Murphy actually said he thought he'd "take" Kev and play the Pull stroke effortlessly off his bowling.

Fully justified IMO, given his anti-spin rants. Nothing against him as a person or a member of a site - just that I love getting out those who think spin is rubbish.

WTF are you on with me not at eleven? And if Hingston gets his "ard" knocked-off, so do I!
open365 is called Tom Bowman, BTW, and there'd be another Tom on the team in Halsey.
Tarick's surname is Weber, and if he were included it'd have to be a British Isles-and-Dutch XI.

And I love making a point about people who can't see the wood for the trees when a player plays for a certain team (ie, their team)... but apparently I'm not allowed to point-out the fact that such a thing happens repeatedly because it's attacking the poster...

Never seen you bat. And surely there's got to be someone on this forum who is worse at batting than you.

English/Scottish/Northern IrishHaha, how about an CW English/Scotland X1 vs CW Australia. That has to be arranged in the future.
EDIT:Already been thought of.

Pickup's quite patently a better batsman than me, that much was obvious from the first net the two of us attended. He didn't have a clue when facing me, though.
