Shakib Al Hasan vs Ian Botham / Burgey vs *****

[SillyCowCorner1]

This thread is a true example of the greatness of test cricket...

***** versus Burgey...yesterday was like the first day of a test match...

I so eager to see how they will perform on the second day of proceedings.

Carry on boys

What's the Chinese word/expression for Tony the Tiger?

Adders is right, you are stingy with giving out the likes.

I'm not stingy, it's just complicated. With lesser posters, you get a like from them and it's all "Ho Hum". I'm more discerning because I know my opinion is universally respected and revered by everyone on CW. That being so, I can't just go about the place handing out likes like I'm tossing confetti around at a wedding.

Sometimes, as with your own post yesterday, I do so because I feel I may have had a discourse with someone in which I may have inadvertently hurt their feelings, and I don't want them to think I have some personal set against them. Other times it's when I've found something amusing, or that a good point has been made.

Having said that, please don't feel as though the like you were fortunate enough to receive was a sympathy like. I do hand those out sometimes to throw a bone someone's way, but that wasn't such an instance.

***** is strictly a limited (and limited overs) performer. I'd expect him to vacate the field today.

You didn't like any post of mine yesterday, you liked one of *****'s and one of JediBrah's.

And I really don't mind if I ever receive a like from you or not, I was merely testing Adder's theory

Burgey isn't stingy he's old, he just can't figure out how to use his phone to like a post yet

 

[Burgey]

Oh good, you're here. Late to the table (terribly rude in culinary terms, not that you'd know) but here nonetheless.

I must have inadvertently hit the like button wrt *****'s post. If I have time later I'll go back and rescind it.

The two umpires:

& Shakib with his 3rd umpire:

 

[Burgey]

Stop derailing the thread ffs.

Why would Shakib take his shirt off? Does he even lift bro?

He's no Faf, that's for sure.

They are merely the umpires.
Belly dancing was what Shakib was aiming for..

I genuinely didn't realise Hauritz had a fairly decent test record, kinda surprised. Granted he was somewhat helped by Pakistan engaging headless chicken mode in that Sydney test, but still fairly respectable career figures for a post-Warne aussie spinner

Crouching Tiger, Hands Near Johnson.

Crouching Tiger, Hidden Johnson.

Not a bad effort. In case you're wondering why I didn't just like your post instead of quoting it, it is complicated.

Looks more like a panther to me.

 

[Burgey]

***** is only able to post sporadically this morning as he's on the hunt for another 7-11 morsel for lunch.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

That is not a tiger; more like a panther or puma or cougar. Not a tiger

That is not a cougar.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

It could be a lioness

Right I'm out of here before people start discussing ligers and tigrons.

fun fact: in a battle between an bigger American bear (grizzly, brown, black etc) and lion or a tiger, the bear almost always wins because when the cat tries to bite it or does bite it, the bear just uses its paw and swings it into the cats head and typically breaks the cat's skull (a weak point evolution did not strengthen as it had no predators).
