***Official*** Australia in South Africa + South Africa in Australia 2016/17

Based on the philosophy of doing what your opponent would like least, & judging Smith's reaction, I'd say it was still the best decision at the time. Warner could nick off, but he could also blaze them to 0/50 off 10 overs.

Oh, I agree it was a good decision, for the sheer trollishness of it alone. I just think when you make a decision as ballsy as this, you're more than willing to risk a 0/50 in order to get the most dangerous opp. batsman out.

The amount of crap that Warne spews is incredible.

I take offence to Renshaws being anyway. Someone who lived in this country till they were 7 should not been an Aussie.

I had a Sunderland season ticket by 6. Like me deciding I wanted to support Newcastle by 11 cos I lived in Newcastle territory my entire life.

So what's your opinion of Ben Stokes?

 

[Dan_M_Bali]

Warne... stop talking you colossal bellend

So, what should he do? Not get picked, despite being an Australian citizen and living in Australia? Maybe ship him off to Nauru?

I'm forgetting he was a traitor by time 06/07 rolled around. I only saw Hayden in test cricket really in 2005.

Even then I can't remember much of what he did as 12 year old so I doubt someone who was 12 when Hayden retired can remember what Hayden did in his prime to model his game on him.

Ergo warne talking shite.

Maybe his dad, not being a sour smart arse, thought "My kid is tall, left handed and has some talent. I'll show him some clips of Hatden in his pomp".

You know, like parents do.

[Spikey]

Yeah, it's clearly plausible. Might not be true, but that's not really the point.

Thanks for that one.

Aren't you a fan of Ben Stokes?

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

Renshaw showing some good judgement here leaving the ball

 

[Gnske]

I can't wait for the Ashes next year when we'll get the first opportunity for Clarke and Warne to talk about the pizza and salad story live on air.

 

[morgieb]

No runs off the bat in 5 overs. Where's the #intent?

 

[Spikey]

Thanks for that one.

i should probably be banned for direness

 

[Burgey]

Haha that was **** bowling and you know it

Troll runs are the worst. If you can put it up someone's nose when their only scoring zone is when it's full, do it.

 

[Spark]

The **** was that Ch9

Or Gary Ballance, or Robin Smith, or Graeme Hick, or Devon Malcolm, etc etc.
