Who will score the next triple

Last word on triples, I have always noticed that triple centuries only occur against really realy bad bowling, theres no way around it. Any triple scored against Australia would result in some Australian's blacklisted for a while. EXCEPT in India... any top batsman that plays lots of tests in India and Pakistan should make triples fairly regular, those are dead decks up there.

Lara sacrificed West Indian cricket to ensure a wanker like Hayden scoring 380 against Zimbabwe did not have the record.

It was the right move, Lara is a hero and a God for doing it. The whole of cricket should thank him.

LOL you mean that England should be eternally grateful for Lara's arrogance and selfish greed. Hayden a wanker ? are you serious ?.. Hayden's 380 is twice the innings that Lara's was and the stats PROVE me right. Sure it was against Zimbabwe but we Aussies have hardly ever played them unlike all the other countries. Be honest, the English bowling in that Lara Test was as inept as the Bowlers Zimbabwe had that day so whats the difference... The difference is that Aussies play to win and disdain draws.. especially when we want to win a trophy back. No Australian captain in history would have put his own glory ahead of his country............. no one.

Haha, I actually believed him and thought the series would be drawn if they won. Turns out they were losing 3-0 before the match began.

I think my favourite part was the suggestion that it was a bowler's paradise just because the game was at Perth. Zimbabwe made 550+ runs in the game against Lee, Gillespie and Bichel, Ray Price scored 38 runs for once out and Australia needed Darren Lehmann to pick up three second innings wickets to close out the game because Brett Lee was really struggling on the minefield against Zimbabwe, collecting 1/96. Then there's the fact that we actually watched the game.

I was going to respond to it straight away, but I assumed he was being deliberately hyperbolic. By the time I realised that probably wasn't true, I felt it pointless to reply for other reasons.

Ntini, Nel, Steyn and Boje must be really really bad bowlers then

If someone smashed a triple against that attack it means that attack was poor on that occasion and the wicket probably a batsmans paradise. Obviously they are usually good bowlers. Not sure which match you refer to.though.

I thought is WI won that game they got back the trophy. Anyway I am glad it happened against Harmison and the poms, love seeing them belted all over the ground
