*Official* West Indies In Australia

You should read the Gibson thread, Xavier. There was an active discussion with statements that Miller was a Test failure. And that Deonarine is better because he's taken more wickets and troubled the batsmen more. I checked it today to make sure I'm not going crazy, and yes, it's still there. Nothing was distorted.
Saying Deonraine DONE BETTER and saying HE IS BETTER are two different things Mr M 8-) .

Now because I'm waiting for the cricket to start, like the next guy, here are the opening blows so that people can make their mind up about what you meant:

I said:
It's the best squad that West Indies can put forward right now. Unless you're aware of some amazing depth in the Caribbean that no one else is.

And Miller > Benn. Mohammed a better OD spinner though.a
And you responded with:
You still dissing Benn after his performance against the Aussies? :laugh: you can claim "Miller is better" but the reality is he hasn't taken his chances when he's had them, i mean even Deonarine in his one test thus far done better than him with the ball imo
Really, what could you possibly have been inferring? Hmmm...

Thanks for quoting me, now do you understand the difference between saying someone DONE BETTER and someone IS BETTER? i'd have thought the word "even" would have given you a hint but clearly it didn't :no: .

You're flogging a dead horse Mr M.

Pointless because it's stating the obvious without achieving a point...unless the point was to make Miller look bad, and the only way to achieve that would be to suggest that Deonarine is better. Because saying a guy who's had a lot more opportunity has done better than a guy who's barely had any opportunity is lacking a point otherwise. And that's today's word- "pointless".

But hey, it's there for everyone to see now.

Erm me saying "even Deonarine done better" is basically saying even a PART TIME spinner achieved more in his first test back than Miller did, that's all, i told you already Mr M trying to put words in other peoples mouth is a frivolous exercise, your saying i implied something but my words are there in black and white, i clearly didn't say "Deonarine is better".

Let's just hope the team we support get a good result today Mr M, these petty debates don't achieve anything at the end of the day.

I'm enjoying this contest. The Windies bowlers are bowling well. I would like to see West Indies vs. Pakistan, I'll be going for West Indies for sure.
