[Cabinet96]

What did you ask?

Here it is.

sorry Howe.. didn't check it fully. Was just wondering which was the 3rd one I got wrong... coz I remember I didn't tell the name of that indoor stadium for your question on the non-test venue from Australia. Was just curious to know if you considered it right or wrong..


Anyways, I pick Waqar Younis.

 

[Howe_zat]

Ah right. Yeah, I didn't accept "the indoor stadium in Melbourne", as I asked for the ground name (and repeated that specification for Cabinet96 in the thread) and that's a loose description.

 

[honestbharani]

So, I am not the only one who has trouble reading..




Kidding.. Fair enough, Howe.. I am glad I could pick Waqar anyways..

 

[Agent Nationaux]

[Furball]
