Ashes Fourth Test - Trent Bridge (Merged)

Re: Ashes Fourth Test - Trent Bridge (Merged)

Okay…we all know Giles is a slow bowler…but…man…man…you guys have no idea of a slow swing…a slow swinger is the most difficult to play…you know how it first hit the pad and then the bat and then the bails are off… the batsman at that moment have no clue of anything…its a nightmare for him…I think Warne & Muralitharan know that…the trick…hmmmmmm…very quietly…soooooooooo lethal…and deceptive…so the colcusion is that my Giles must be lethal…and he is bound to take wickets to improve my ranking…voila… :k:

Re: Ashes Fourth Test - Trent Bridge (Merged)

Giles should retire from cricket. He is the only old dude in the team and it just doesn't look right.

I agree.. he's good but not that good. England has some great bowlers but I don't think he fits that cathegory. Anyways.. England should try Batty, Swann, or anyone else.

swinger:smack2: :smack2:
I am hoping you meant spin which is what usually a spinner bowls.
Its getting tough n tough to determine who is the champ between these two.

Re: Ashes Fourth Test - Trent Bridge (Merged)

Giles is part of a winning combination. That's the only thing going for him. I'm sure there are better spinners in the country than him.

Re: Ashes Fourth Test - Trent Bridge (Merged)

Yo are quite right here. He plays becaue he plays well in this bowling unit.

Re: Ashes Fourth Test - Trent Bridge (Merged)

Re: Ashes Fourth Test - Trent Bridge (Merged)

Hayden fails YET again! This time Flintoff dismisses him. Australia 50-1.

Re: Ashes Fourth Test - Trent Bridge (Merged)

Dont worry much. It is just aussie commentators who are doing this. They forget how many times they got rub of the green. It happens to team who are on top of their game and it is not happenning for aussies. English are certainly not complaining :hehe:
