Not Terrible
As proven by the ICC, boundaries are the determining factor when scores are level, therefore batsman win matches and ***** wins.

Only in finals, and Bangladesh are minnows and have/will never make a final, so boundaries are irrelevant. Burgey wins.

Ian Botham in WCs: 22 games, 297 runs @ 18.56, HS of 53. One fifty. 30 wickets at 25.40, BBI 4/31

Burgey in WCs: Banned
It should be noted that all three people you’re posting about here have outperformed Virat Kohli at WCs.

Were this not a family forum, I would regale you with my 2015 WC semi final performance in the brasco at the new MA Noble Stand.

Burgey certainly won on that occasion. Most enjoyable experience at the cricket I’ve ever had. And in a big game too.

Terrific stuff from TJB here, carrying the flag during my disgraceful, unjustified exile. A grateful nation and forum salutes you.

If ***** wasn't preoccupied with eating mediocre pandemic-inducing food in an unsuccessful attempt to appear relevant and edgy, he could have saved for his own place by now.

thanks I just spent 20 minutes googling this thinking that "andedgy" was like a fancy lawyer word that I didn't understand
 
Another normal human conversation successfully Miyagi'd.
You're too eager. I get it, you're 16 and full of enthusiasm and you're missing the context that ***** has already laid out. You think ***** and Burgey are the rich kids and you want to be part of their clique. Except one is a self proclaimed wealthy white Australian (Western Sydney mind you), and one lives in Hong Kong with his wealthy migrant parents.

It is a bit before you time; but here you go:

there was thing called World War two, where Nazi Germany, Facist Italy (under Mussolini) and Japan killed many of grandfathers and fathers in the cricket world. All over the cricket world. From NZ, Aus, Eng, Afg, WI, British Raj, and further. This may help remind you:

Please don't offend the memories of the lost.

Trundler, you're totally too keen to take me on, you're fairly smart, especially for your age, but you lack experience and the maturity or wisdom that it brings for many.
This was an extra hot exchange.

The worst insult I've received on this forum was the insinuation that I hold ***** in anything other than contempt.
