Who is the 2nd best Australian cricketer ?

Ponting was an absolute rock star for a very long period of time. As a fan of the opponent (India) never seen a cricketer who scared me more. Godlike.

Smith is a small weedy little fellow. I would hire him to be my gardener, or manservant.
They’re basically the same height. And weight actually, Smith probably having more muscle imo.

I know it’s a CW trait to big up favourite players by irrationally belittling other great players, but it usually involves stats guru and spreadsheets. I guess just saying someone is a weedy looking gardener saves quite a bit of time.
Personally I'm looking forward to the telling the young CW tikes of 2045 that they would've appreciated that Vusi was better than Sehwag if only they'd been there.

I had to look this up and wow they are about the same height. Wtf. Always thought Ponting was way shorter.

But no way does Smith have more muscle. He's a skinny-fat dad bod. Ponting was lean and wiry af.

Still getting over the discovery that Steve Smith is a manlet (5'8"). Pretty hard to respect a human less than 6 foot tall. Lucky he's good at cricket and found some success in life I guess.

I mean its cricket not basketball cmon. You respect Bradman, Sobers, Tendulkar, Lara, Ponting, Viv, Steyn, Murali, Border, Marshall and Sanga right?
