What does the bolded mean?
Now that's out of the way...
No, my argument is not fallacious. You can't know for sure how good someone is unless he's been tried; what is quite clear from what we have seen in UAE and so far here is that Bell and KP are simply not good enough against this type of bowling in these conditions.
Neither you nor I nor anyone else can second guess how someone will perform. When someone is not performing, he should be dropped. If that does not happen (on the unproven contention that there's nobody better out there) there is no pressure on the incumbents to perform, or to get better, or to iron out their weaknesses.
By mentioning Taylor you create a straw man by implying that I am recommending that Bell/KP should be replaced by him. I have not done so. He is not the only option; there are probably three or four batsmen that I would play ahead of him and whom I am confident would, given time, acquit themselves better against the likes of Ajmal, Rehman, and Herath than Bell anbd KP have done. But first they must be given the chance.
As for reporting me, that information could quite easily have been conveyed in a PM. As far as I'm aware, I haven't been banned; until I am, you might as well keep your thoughts about my posting to yourself.
For the record - given that you have in the past felt inclined to give me your unsolicited opinions as to the quality of my posting - I find
your posting to be, not condescending, but, worse: petty and stupid - as in your reference to my "ideal fantasy world", when you know full well what I meant, and have yourself probably made similar types of mental adjustment in the past. I don't hold such malicious flights of fancy against you, for it seems you have very little else to offer.
Shall we call it a day?
