Zap_Brannigan Posted December 7, 2009 Posted December 7, 2009 I don't get all the hype about ZAK.. Kinda like how i felt when Aussies hyped Warne
99.94 Posted December 7, 2009 Posted December 7, 2009 Yeah the difference was Warne didn't average 34..
punjabi_khota Posted December 7, 2009 Posted December 7, 2009 I don't get all the hype about ZAK.. He can bowl swing better than all your bowlers. Both conventional and reverse. Ricky Ponting didn't get the hype either before his last trip to India. Hence his dickish comments.
Sachinism Posted December 7, 2009 Posted December 7, 2009 I don't get all the hype about ZAK.. Kinda like I don't get the hype about Johnson
99.94 Posted December 7, 2009 Posted December 7, 2009 He can bowl swing better than all your bowlers. Both conventional and reverse. Ricky Ponting didn't get the hype either before his last trip to India. Hence his dickish comments. Despite the fact that Zaheer was talking trash first. With his 42 average against Australia, what Ponting said was true, unlike ZK, who ended up with egg on his face.
Sachinism Posted December 7, 2009 Posted December 7, 2009 Despite the fact that Zaheer was talking trash first. With his 42 average against Australia' date=' what Ponting said was true, unlike ZK, who ended up with egg on his face.[/quote'] The stats don't tell the true story, kinda like MJ's bloated stats for wickets picked up by luck off pretty crappy deliveries

With his 42 average against Australia' date=' what Ponting said was true, unlike ZK, who ended up with egg on his face.[/quote'] Egg on whose face? The last time your famed batting line up faced ZAK and co, he made them look like club players.

99.94 Posted December 7, 2009 Posted December 7, 2009 Egg on whose face? The last time your famed batting line up faced ZAK and co' date=' he made them look like club players.[/quote'] Yeeeah. His 11 wickets at 43 were devestating..
saneindian Posted December 7, 2009 Posted December 7, 2009 Yeeeah. His 11 wickets at 43 were devestating.. devestating enough to thump the aussies 2-0 with two of their heaviest test defeats ever. :finger: For further queries, please contact Punter & co.
99.94 Posted December 7, 2009 Posted December 7, 2009 Yeah.. his 5 fer was incredible, truly finished us off. Oh wait.. nevermind. 170 runs is one of our worst defeats ever? I knew we had a rich cricketing history, but if that's one of our worst defeats we must be much better than I thought.
Guest Gunner Posted December 7, 2009 Posted December 7, 2009 Yeah.. his 5 fer was incredible, truly finished us off. Oh wait.. nevermind. 170 runs is one of our worst defeats ever? I knew we had a rich cricketing history, but if that's one of our worst defeats we must be much better than I thought. A loss is a loss. What exactly do you want to prove mate? If I were you I would be concerned about adelaide at the moment.
champ Posted December 7, 2009 Posted December 7, 2009 I don't get all the hype about ZAK.. i too feel the same .ZK is all hype !! even i think ricky ponting is hyped a lot .. even bhajji is better bat than him based on the stats of last series played .. even clarke is a hype .. who either leaves the ball to crash on to his stumps or gets yorked by a spinner .. is he for real or a pretender ?? :hehe:
99.94 Posted December 7, 2009 Posted December 7, 2009 Sorry.. just discussing cricket.. but yeah I am actually mega pumped for tomorrow!

I knew we had a rich cricketing history, but if that's one of our worst defeats we must be much better than I thought. And what about the Mohali test?

I knew we had a rich cricketing history, but if that's one of our worst defeats we must be much better than I thought. ok u are not concerned about 170 run loss with a rich cricketing history as yours ? .. ok boys we are officially #1 now .. the wheels are falling off aussie wagon .. their attitude is now like minnow .. even WI look like giving them a hard time .. :giggle:
Guest Gunner Posted December 7, 2009 Posted December 7, 2009 Sorry.. just discussing cricket.. but yeah I am actually mega pumped for tomorrow! Nah, not a problem. You are more than welcome. I was just responding to your ZAK is overrated comment. I agree that he has not had an amazing career particularly early on but since he has returned from injury he has been nothing short of world class.
99.94 Posted December 7, 2009 Posted December 7, 2009 You can't be number one forever I guess.. what do you mean by a minnow attitude? Just saying I haven't been overly impressed with what I've seen of him but I guess I don't get to see all Indian games (IND v SRL wasn't televised) and his stats tend to agree. Perhaps playing on flat tracks doesn't help though. Anyway congrats again though, it's your moment in the sun so I won't try spoil it. Also it sucks trying to argue on this forum because before I know it there are people commenting against me everywhere (as is to be expected).
Sachinism Posted December 7, 2009 Posted December 7, 2009 You can't be number one forever I guess.. what do you mean by a minnow attitude? we're not claiming to be number 1 forever. I'm sure everyone here knows sooner or later we'll be knocked off (most likely sooner with SA beating England) In the last year or so, none of the top teams have been dominating the rest. So I can safely say the number 1 position will switch between the teams for a while yet
