Ratios and Tendency posted:India's stated problem is with hawkeye predicting the path of the ball which has nothing to do with Rauf being a poo poo umpire. There were problems in the SA-Pakistan match as well. Whatever the stated position, as long as the review system throws up terrible decisions, it's still a fair stance to refuse to use it.

Not really, since the terrible decisions that were made had nothing to do with the review system - an umpire looked at the same evidence everybody else did and came to a different conclusion to everybody else. This match does provide a good reason not to use Asad Rauf, but I think most people were already aware that was a long overdue reform.

Maxwell is literally worth 120% of Ponting and Clarke combined in the IPL.

Took a look at the live feed off the ipl auction earlier, the tie breaker for two teams having bid the same for a player is private offers made to the Indian board where the highest gets the player and the board get the amount. Isn't that a bribe?

His sabbatical has worked a treat, he's obviously enjoying himself again. It's just that the decision between an early return to international cricket and waiting a series is easier to make when you have the IPL teabagging its coinpurse on your forehead.

Well he got into the ODI team based on his Big Bash performances I think. At least he'll probably fix his running on the pitch thing now that he has a $700k incentive. Part two of the Warnifesto is out, it's not very interesting though. http://www.shanewarne.com/blog/332/where-is-australian-cricket-at-part-2 Centusin fucked around with this message at 02:18 on Feb 4, 2013 |

That team is as big a piece of poo poo as the current one. Well done Warne. It is also a touch on the slow side with the ball.

sixteenstraws posted:the perfect team Ferguson, Coulter-Nile and Marsh in the Test team? *sigh* I thought Warne would at least stop falling for the trap of picking bowlers because they are quick or tall, and pick bowlers because they are good. I shouldn't have been so optimistic since he picked Ferguson and Marsh presumably based on their limited over stats. How Ferguson could be mentioned with a FC average of 35... Makes me think that Warnie is not the great mind he makes himself out to be.

They should use the time they allocated to T20 at the AB medal to letting me see Mitchell Johnson's girlfriend for 15 minutes.. Both are stupid but one doesn't ruin cricket
