Bonk

Who is Bonk?

 

[squiz]

thats what i was thinking. Why is Langer down at No.4 ??

 

[gold639]

Ah! Got it! Bonk must be BOND,right?

And he is going by c2k4 stats,so that explains Langer at no.4

[squiz]

Pathan 12th Man, you're joking right?
Ganguly in your World XI team, you're joking again right?
Kumble and Singh ahead of Warne and Murali?
Harmison should take Vaas' spot
Trescothick at 6?
Ganguly ahead of Ponting?

That's all I can be bothered critisizing now

 

[icyman]

harbhajan and pathan have just started their careers
and in the world xi

 

[gold639]

Pathan is good enough to be in a ONE DAY world XI,not in a TEST XI.

Do U have anything against the Asians or u dont like them?? U seem to be questioning most of the Asian inclusions in my squad. Ganguly can get a place in the World XI for one dayers. I did not include him in tests. I never rate Murali as a big bowler and I am a bigger fan of Kumble than Warne. And what has Bhajji done wrong?? He is close to 200 wickets in tests and has been bowling impressively. And Harmison is just a recent sensation. I wanted to give him time before he is included in my World XI team. I was in fact thinking abt him. I gave Trescothick the No.6 spot becoz I wanted to have Gilly and Veeru the opening and wanted Tendulkar and Ganguly at 3 and 4. And then Ponting was there who could be too below.. So, Trescothick was at No.6. Since its a World XI, players who've certain positions in real life need not have the same here!! And yeah, may be Ganguly can come below Ponting so that Dada can take care of spinners when they come on.

Pathan is a very good swing bowler to be included in a World XI lineup. I was looking for variations and i did not want to stack up my lineup with all similar type bowlers!!

Pathan has performed better in tests than in ODI's

 

[gold639]

But he is not near as good enough as some of the other test bowlers.
