What don't you get?

He called him a World Class ODI batsman. Completely different forms of the game, and yes, 1 can be World Class in one and not the other (Bracken, Mills, Taylor).

Fair enough, yes he is a good ODI batsmen, still I respect the players more that go well at both.

Yet. Taylor and Elliott are getting there quick though.
Taylor is world-class, an average of over 40 shows that I reckon. Grant Elliot tho? Bloke's played 9 innings in ODI cricket. He's done much better than I thought he would, but you're jumping the gun quite significantly there.

Anyhow I exspect the Aussies to win pretty easily tomorrow, should be a good game though. Hope McCullum gets some runs, love watching him bat, hope Ponting gets some big runs and guides the Aussies to a series win.

Should be a good game.

It's times like this when I really wish moderators could use ignore lists. You can tell he's a lost cause but you can also tell he's probably not going to do anything banworthy so we're stuck with him. Such is life.
Reckon this is pretty out of place coming from a mod. You guys should be more welcoming to new members, and above these sort of comments.

They can't accept I have a different opinion then them, you's have prooven to be very narrow minded to date, disapointing.

The game is going to be a washout. 40% chance of rain throughout the day in Brisbane, and 100% chance of rain at night.

Yeah that's a fair point although I didn't actually direct the comment at him. Probably should have kept it to myself anyway, sorry guys.

Tipping a big knock from Ponting tomorrow. Didn't hear much on here about the boys seeing the fire victims. Good on 'em. Seemed Punter was pretty affected by it, the way he was speaking - said he sat next to a woman who told him he looked like her son, who's been missing since Saturday. Reckon he'll dedicate a big knock to the victims tomorrow.
Tipping Australia to dedicate a win tomorrow to all the victims tbh, kind of similar to India's win over England after the bombings.

I'm going to guess something like:

Australia, 283/7
Ponting 83, Haddin 58. O'Brien 2-37

NZ, 284/5
Taylor 110*, Elliott 47. Hopes 3-40.

NZ win by 5 wickets, win CH 3-2.

That would be a joke of a way to end a fascinating and extremely close series. I'd much prefer a washout.
A few would rather see a washout I would think but me myself would much rather see a result in the series even if that means the last game be effected by DWL.

I think you are Prince EWS the Cricket chatter, and entitled to your opinion.

I don't think Prince EWS the Moderator needs to post here.

lol how was that comment not directed at me, it clearly was, but I don't really care lol.
It was about you, but I wasn't actually directing it at you. I wasn't talking to you, just about you, which makes it less aggressive.

Probably shouldn't have said it either way though, I apologise.
