Captain Cricket
State Vice-Captain
Yeah as batsmen
Oh yeah, that.You were saying you'd show me some evidence that that wasn't Shirley Manson.
Yeah, broke his thumb during that 86 (think it was one that spat from Flintoff), so batted at nine in the second-innings (would have been better served staying in the pavilion really). Seem to recall him being dropped early\midway through that 86 too.From that you would gather that Papps and Bell should be opening. Yet Papps was decimated by the South Africans (a team he hasn't had any success against) so you wonder if he really is test class? After all he's played 7 of his 8 tests against the South Africans so perhaps they're his bogey team. In his solitary test against England he scored 86 & 0 (the 0 being 9 )
Why not? He's still been more successful (with more hundreds and 50's) than any other NZ opener of recent time, the point I am making.Well, and Bangladesh.
Why do you mention? D'you want me to include all games of cricket for and against all teams he's ever opened in too?
Vincent against Test-class teams has an average as an opener of 29-30, and just 22 in all innings after his first two as an opener.
And Vincent was more successful against 'test class opposition'.Bell was far more successful against Bangladesh.
Shirley Manson > Chris Martin
Barney Gumble > Charles Manson > Evermind > Shirley Manson a.k.a. Muriel Manson > English Batsmen > Chris Martin > RichardCharles Manson > Evermind > Shirley Manson a.k.a. Muriel Manson > English Batsmen > Chris Martin
Oh yeah, that.
It's Muriel Manson not Shirley.
Just a label, mate. You don't honestly think Shirley did it?
Excuse me, but wtf?Jeez keep up to date: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shirley_Manson
Check the 'Scam' section in the middle of the article.
Ask Richard.Excuse me, but wtf?
Are you jammay? No, you're not. So how the **** can you answer whether he has a flag on his aerial or not. You can't.Is this a forum of private conversations? No. I couldn't give a damn who you were talking to (or at, or about). Your suggestion was inaccurate, so I said it was inaccurate.
You're just winding him up, aren't you?Ask Richard.
