Biggest plodders in international cricket history.

I agree cricketplayer was such a legend, sadly he is no longer with us. Pretty sad turn of events.

This is horrible news. Even in the other thread, when someone mentioned Fardin wasn't with us, I thought he meant it with respect to CW. May his soul rest in everlasting peace. And really, it won't be such a bad idea for us to carry that in our sigs. The posts in that link show how highly regarded he was. And to me, he always came across as some one with a great amount of genuine enthusiasm for the game. The fact that he still always posted and tried to improve himself here at CW inspite of so many posters picking on him showed that.

It's my opinion that this thread should be closed, as some of the stuff I said to cricket player doesn't really bear reading with hindsight.
Still mean every word I said about the idiot Camel56 types, mind.

When I hear the word "plodder" at cricket,I think of batsmen who are painfully slow at scoring runs,and who have only a small range of strokes,and to me, the worst two I have seen in my lifetime are unquestionably,...Bill Lawry & Trevor Bailly,..they bored me to tears.

Oh dear, for the second time in a month the idiot Camel56 types are resurrected...

How about Mark Greatbatch playing against Australia in Perth taking 462 minutes to score 146*.This was in 1989-90 series and I was there and it WAS Boring

Ah yes, one of the greatest test innings of all time...

Poor ole Richard was still struggling from the mental battering he copped even two years later.

 

[Smudge]

I'm guessing this won't end well...

 

[Spark]

what is this

i don't even

 

[Burgey]

I wonder how JBMAC is doing? Hasn't posted since February and I know he is of advanced years, given his first-hand knowledge of tests as far back as WW2 if not a little earlier.

Hope he's doing well.

Haha, because someone who registers on a forum to dig posts from over 2 years ago by one member is completely alright, mentally...

Here we go again...will we see the return of the other four as well?

Fiery's name at the top of the page! I thought for a moment he was back but then reality dawned ........ shame

Camel's big comeback appears to have been short-lived. I'm heartbroken.

 

[Spark]

Someone's gotta explain to me what's going on, there's a story here and it looks amusing
