anyone else think he has an absolute huge chip on his shoulder???
He obviousbly has a major disliking for Steve Waugh, and feels extremely insecure about the 1948 team in terms of their place in Australia's cricket history after the current teams fantastic achievements in recent years.
During the upcoming summer, no doubt, as over the past two summers, we will be hearing more from Harvey (who I regard as a very fine cricketer) and how he think's this team is overrated, wouldn't hold a candle to the 1948 team and so on and so forth.
watching England play South Africa on Fox Sports two nights ago, there was an Inside Cricket special on the 1948 Invincbled and there was an interview with him - I'm not sure from how long ago but I think it was during last summer where he was claiming there were many flaws in the current team, and if he were the selector there would "be quite a few changes, starting with a new captain".
I don't know about you, but when a team has hardly been beaten in the last 4-5 years, it would be wiser to let things go on the same way as they have been..........or has a new selection policy been adopted where players get dropped for perfomring
Anyone else agree that cricket would be far better served, not to mention he'd be doing himself a lot of favours too, if he didn't constantly take every single opportunity he can too diminish the current teams achievements. His own record (I think he feels very threatened by Steve Waugh, Adam Gilchrist and Allan Border about threatening his position as the best middle order batsmen behind Braddles and Chappell Australia has produced), and the record of the 1948 team will speak for themselves, and his words aren't helping them in any way shape or form.
