JGR Posted March 4, 2014 Share i reckon if Smth scores a century in the 2nd innings then milky should take MTBeer out for a romantic dinner...and if not...then MTBeer takes Milky out for a romantic dinner...what do you say? So much wisdom ... at least something good will come of this match Stretch 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ84 Posted March 4, 2014 Share where are you seeing "60plus" or what are you referring to here? Smith averaged 31.85 against India. The stat that MTBeer put out did not show the India series showing his 62 average1st Test 68 & 442nd Test 47 & 27 not out Straus was never a consistent performer and unfortunately for Cook has not proved to be either although I rate him as a batsman.Smith is currently ranked 13th (second opener) As for scoring the way he has,that is the curse of most openers.Either go out for a low score or go big. Consistent players in terms of getting a 50 every game are generally your 3/4/5 As for chirping his captaincy you really need to take another look Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have tried looking at it from all angles & his captaincy is one thing that is not going to change I've said it before he lacks the killer instinct.

milky4130 Posted March 4, 2014 Share well, if you want to get nit picky about it "and anyone who still wants him around is still living in the past & a bigger idiot!!!"i.e. I'm an idiot.just saying.hence I was trying to call a truce (is that the correct spelling) the statement now only applies to hubbers who first called me a idiot for voicing my opinion, which the last time I checked we are all entitled to.

So just admit it,As an opener he is still class (not a has been) and more than likely would be for years to come..You can disagree on his captaincy, but you cannot say he is anything but exceptional as a captain.More than a decade, most caps as a captain, nearly 2 years in the No.1 position and has beaten everyone away and home except the Ausies in SA. You also have to remember he took over a team that was so poor they never even made the quarter finals at Home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stretch Posted March 4, 2014 Share so we need 511 in 4 and a bit sessions.....piece of bun and coke. 200 by smith100 by #100 by AB and 50's each from elgar and alviro... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ84 Posted March 4, 2014 Share So they declared,511 is a mammoth task,but the way the pitch is playing and at a run rate of 3.75 anything is possible. I hope Biff goes out and bashes a double and we take the match. Would be a miraculous send off but it also wouldn't be the first time SA has produced the impossible.

Vetseun Posted March 4, 2014 Share Wonder what impact this has on the morale of the team for the last two days of the test?I think it is very selfish to make the announcement during the match. Cellar 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
