Second best batsman in the country behind Ponting by a street. It's an absolute travesty the way he has been treated throughout his career.
Word out. Hopefully the dumb selectors can put aside the grudge they have for him & pick in the T20 WC squad indeed.Second best batsman in the country behind Ponting by a street. It's an absolute travesty the way he has been treated throughout his career.
I'll eat my computer if they do. Not a chance in the world unfortunately. Shame, because we've missed out on a fantastic player for reasons other than cricket.Word out. Hopefully the dumb selectors can put aside the grudge they have for him & pick in the T20 WC squad indeed.
Agreed. Terrible stuff, pity to see him go.Second best batsman in the country behind Ponting by a street. It's an absolute travesty the way he has been treated throughout his career.
I dunno, sounds like the end of his career at least has panned out in exactly the same way.Sad loss in Hodge retiring from first class cricket, especially whilst still dominating the competition.
Always been a fan throughout his career. The hype that surrounded him in 1993/1994 had everyone believing Victoria had just unearthed the next Dean Jones (but someone who would play 100 Tests). Career never panned out as such, but always a terrific servant of Victorian cricket throughout some of our more darker days, and someone who has taken us back to the top of the Shield pile over recent years.
