No worries. I just hate being wrong and the more I have my attention drawn to a mistake the more foolish I feel. Damn, You Donald!!!

Umpires are against him though. If he was Pakistani, Dar would have given them.

I think Shaun Tait should be on the list - he's very fast, has an unusual action batsmen seem to find difficult, or at least requiring some adjustment, and more to the point, nobody, least of all him, knows where the ball is actually going to go.

Top quality batman like VIv Richard never worn a helmet while facing pacers like Lillee,Thommo etc.He didn't required the protective helmet to be safe from the nasty deliveries.

There might be some top quality batsmen today who won't be afraid atall at the prospect of facing the express fast bowlers and might relish facing them, but there are alot of batsmen that aren't too happy on facing the demon bowlers.
IVAR was exceptional in many ways.
Even in his own age, he was an exceptional rarity.
Plenty of batsmen of Richards' calibre these days do wear helmets. Hence, they feel happier facing extremely fast bowlers, and the game of cricket is better for it.

Looks like our beloved multiple-username trolls got scared away. Munaf's tally has been stuck at 10 for several days now.
