Mr. Wicket Posted January 28, 2008 Posted January 28, 2008 Match headed for a draw going into the fifth day at Adelaide. Only chance for a win is wickets, and without conceding too many runs. 2006: Shane Warne takes 4/49 in 32. England lose. 2008: Brad Hogg has 5-0-42-0. :haha:
The Outsider Posted January 28, 2008 Posted January 28, 2008 Warne would have had similar figures if he did not have the likes of Collingwood and Pietersen facing him.
Cricketics Posted January 28, 2008 Posted January 28, 2008 WARNEy is lucky to have england as opposition team on day 5..
Ram Posted January 28, 2008 Posted January 28, 2008 Please dont insult a living legend by comparing him with a wannabe who isnt nearly good enough to hold a candle to him. I have said this before and i say it again, its like almost the Indians feel insulted that Hogg is even bowling at them. Their game plan for day seems to have been like this, Plan A : If no early wickets, attack Hogg Plan B : If early wicket, doesnt matter, still attack him :D
Cricketics Posted January 28, 2008 Posted January 28, 2008 not really mm, a thing to note and understand here is.. had there been any other team or any other player batting against brad hogg on day 5 in such situation.. brad hoggz figure before lunch would have been perhapz 5 overz 10 runz - 1 wicket here sehwag has shown punter the right way that don't bring brad hogg..
The Outsider Posted January 28, 2008 Posted January 28, 2008 Sriram, what did Hogg do against India that Warne did not?

Whatever, still, its gives me great pleasure to see Hogg whince as though he has constipating problems at the end of every over, as he realizes with a feeling of a man resigned to his fate, that, he has gone for more than 10 runs, AGAIN !
Ram Posted January 28, 2008 Posted January 28, 2008 Sriram' date=' what did Hogg do against India that Warne did not?[/quote'] Yea, Warne wasnt *too* much better against us either, I accept that. Atleast Warne would given us all the theatrics, the oohs, the aahs, the gasps and made the game *look* close. P.S - He would have had figures of 23-1-97-1 at the end of the day I am sure, but atleast the cricket would have looked interesting :D
Dravid Posted January 28, 2008 Posted January 28, 2008 come on, dont compare a legend against a douche
Ram Posted January 28, 2008 Posted January 28, 2008 Hogg this series, GB Hogg (Aus) 3* 118.0 12 470 7 2/51 4/133 67.14 3.98 7 wickets in 3 matches, at an average of 67 and RPO of 4. :hahaha: I know one man who must be relieved to see all this - Stuart McGill !
