Best cricketer right now.

[luckyeddie]

"best cricketer right now" is a stupid topic though... Kyle Mills and James Franklin both just took 6 wickets in a Test match, does that make them the best bowlers right now?

No, they're a pair of half-decent players by New Zealand standard (but only 'great' if you judge them against Scott Styris)

 

[Dick Rockett]

ROFLMAO!!!!

Since when is 30 young?

When you're 80, sitting in a rest home dribbling into your apple puree and waiting for an orderly to come and wipe your bottom.

 

[Dick Rockett]

Don't get around the internet much, do you?

I've been using the net for well over 10 years and have no idea what that particular shorthand stands for. Richard seems to be the sort of guy that values fully formed and constructed sentences - there's nothing wrong with that

 

[Richard]

Except most 80-year-olds aren't remotely close to being in said situation...

I can't wait for those days, I have to pay through the nose down at the parlour currently.

Umm, it was a throwaway, light hearted bit of banter - not meant to be taken seriously.

Tell me about it. It's extra just for the puree.

My personal habits are none of your business, thank you.

 

[Richard]

Umm, it was a throwaway, light hearted bit of banter - not meant to be taken seriously.

Except that I find it very far from light-hearted, and in fact rather insulting.

So what's new?

 

[Richard]

Nothing.
Why? Did you expect something to be?

 

[Dick Rockett]

Ugh. This is pointless. Discussion over.

Anyway, my vote's for Bondy.

 

[Richard]

Ugh. This is pointless.

So... what was the point in complaining about it then?

 

[Dick Rockett]

So... what was the point in complaining about it then?

Carrying on with this one-line bickering is pointless. The initial argument wasn't. Perhaps we should get back to the topic at hand.

Bondy!

Whose fault was it we departed from the topic at hand?

Bondy! Bondy! Bondy!

If only he could stay in the team for more than five minutes, the man would become an absolute cult figure in this country.

"Ow! My foot/back/hip/groin/stomach/dehydration/heat stroke!"

 

[Dick Rockett]

Ow, my pancreas.

I love the watching the Monster, but he's nowhere near the best anything at the moment.

I'd agree with that, it's a shame out of the 3 really quick bowlers(Lee, Akthar and Bond) the most inneffective one is the only one that stays fit.
