Nah. You said "it's only a matter of time". No matter when we call you out on it, you can always claim you meant later.
Well if someone can tell me who they are facing in tests over the next year, I'd be more than happy to put a time limit on it...

Just to clarify Howe, you picked Andrew Hall right? You posted him in the wrong thread so just making sure.

Williams missiles one straight into Bell's stomach for the fourth wicket. A foot either side and it was four.

Xuhaib did Shahzad such a disservice to call him a Dhoni clone. He's not exactly technically correct, and he doesn't know how to leave, but he's much easier on the eye. Obviously he isn't as good as Dhoni yet by a distance.

Also, he's extremely vertically challenged. And wearing a jumper.

Sure thing babeh.

Edit: I also don't know how one goes about betting an avatar.
Three steps:

1. Say something contentious and get picked up on it (we have done this bit)

2. Agree to bet on it (we have also done this bit)

3. Agree on a duration stipulation. I say 2 months.

2 months sound good to me. Is there any 'official' way of recording the bet so it isn't forgotten...a year is a long time.

You must enter it into the Great Booke of CW Avatar Bets. In order to reach the Booke, you must gain the Key of Bethusela from the depths of the Ocean of Terror, which will allow you to enter the Cave of Adrozanghi, where the Booke is held.

Quote me if I'm wrong then haha.
Ok then.

Na I reckon SA's bowling attack is just too damn good now for any overall team incoherence to get in the way of success. I think it will only be a matter of time before SA become no. 1 tbh. Australia lack the batting prowess at this stage, and we probably won't get to no.1 for a long time yet.

I'm clear on the depths of Ocean of Terror part, but I'm uncertain about the Cave of Adrozanghi? Would it be immoral to use cheat codes here?

Coetzer straight drives, Swann flicks it onto the stumps and appeals for the run out with Shahzad backing up. The whole side goes up.

There's no TV replays, so the ump gives Shahzad the benefit of the doubt. Meanwhile, Broad was busy appealing on the boundary, so it's gone for four.
