Quote of the Week by Usman

Posted to thread:

Why so little criticism of Australia?

Quote:
...the fact is that Pakistan media waits for one small inncident occuring with our team so that they can blast our own team. Whilst all other countries media support their team and and blast the other teams.

Posted on thread:

The Worst Test Captains ever ??

Quote:
Originally Posted by OTW
Hashan Tillekeratne: Too defensive in mindset. Never did attack enough, never backed his batsmen - one incident stands out, when Sri Lanka needed to chase a target on the final day in about 40-odd overs at a run rate of almost 6 an over. As soon as Jayasuriya fell, Tillekeratne ordered his batsmen to shut up shop - lacked faith in the rest of the batting, one of the worst qualities of any captain.

Ian Botham: Too much of an ego and a prospensity to get all the media headlines/focus on him, and almost zero man-management skills.

B.S. Bedi: Very negative and critical attitude towards many players, poor decision-making and generally not the brightest chap to have led an Indian team.

Honorable mentions: Brian Lara (clueless at points as leader on what to do other than just rotate bowlers), Kim Hughes (ffs, you're an Aussie. QUIT CRYING.), Moin Khan (Wanted: Active brain cells!), Lee Germon (make a guy cappo on his test debut, because of his media skills. BRILLIANT.)


Congratulations to OTW and Usman...

Saj will now do the honours... over to you Saj.
