Didn't Kohli react similarly when Johnson hit him on the helmet in the first innings at Adelaide in 2014 after Hughes' death? Johnson looked (understandably) the more shook up of the two after the incident.

Both had fearsome porn star moustaches.

Srinath gets very few wraps. Reckon he was a very good bowler tbh. More consistent than johnson, but MJ’s peaks were Jeff Thomson levels of scary. Would say Johnson was better, but not by very much at all. Javagal massively under sold imho

Nice post.

Kohli and young Ponting are very similar. Kohli controls himself a bit better though

He did, but tbf, that was a little different. Johnson was doing the old throw the ball back at the batsman even though you're not really going to get him out thing, and ended up hitting Kohli.

Not that Kohli is any less of a **** than Ponting tho

There's a lot of betas floating around international cricket. I'd even say there are more betas than alphas

Nup. Betas generally can't make it.

Pick any international team and I'll tell you the betas

Oh christ, please not this garbage again

beta means "son" in Hindi, therefore all male international cricketers are betas

 

[TheJediBrah]

GoodAreasShane is defo a beta

Srinath's finest moment was when he hit Ponting in the face with a bouncer, went up to him to see if he as ok, and got a torrent of abuse thrown his way from Ponting for having the nerve to do so. Poor bloke. 90s Indian quicks were so mild mannered.

Never knew about this. Class act. But I suppose fast bowlers have to leave their humanity in the locker room and only collect it when they leave for the day.

 

[RossTaylorsBox]

Srinath is more of an epsilon.

 

[DriveClub]

Redhill sounds like a real beta

Australia

Australia

Ok bad example, Smith and Head are definitely betas. The rest of the current team are pretty alpha.

Nathan Lyon is a perfect example of a life-long beta who transformed into an alpha dog.

 

[trundler]

Yo this last page is pretty cringe, stop

 

[Burner]

Lyon is a dog, you got that right

I would say warner is a disgusting bogan **** but is he still an alpha tho

Reminds me of Rickety Cricket from It's Always Sunny.. "She's a real dog.. I wouldn't even do her"
