  1. Broad has been a fantastic cricketer. So determined to improve and worked incredibly hard on his game. England have been spoiled by having him and Anderson together and the latter has probably overshadowed just how good Broad is. Some of the things he has given is cricket fans over the years has been wonderful. Even better the Aussies hate him. A deserved retirement for a true champion.
  2. You three are sharing the same I.p address. Hmmmmm, what a coincidence.
  3. Homophobia has no place in society and especially not on this website. Need to have a good look at yourself.
  4. One for the near future hopefully. Unbelievable decision to keep bairstow for next test. I'm convinced Stokes would turn down Gilchrist at his peak in favour of his mate.
  5. Delighted for Woakes and Wood. Two genuinely good all round cricketers and decent guys who have both had a raw deal over the years, especially Woakes. Now time to get Foakes in and play some proper cricket instead of the abomination that is Bazball. There is a series available for the winning if they have the brains to play the way they should. Nothing wrong with attacking cricket but you have to take cognisance of the match situation, the opponents bowlers and the pitch conditions.
  6. If you throw into the equation waqar and Wasim plus Donald and Pollock then Atherton faced some of the greatest bowlers going. His average would be ten higher in a different era. Also remember his crippling back issues meant to could no longer be as fluent or flexible at the crease. He was a top batsman.
  7. Sorry couldn't resist. I reckon if you went through the history of all older long term posters in this site there will be language we all used that we wouldn't be comfortable with today. Times and attitudes change.
