Thank you Neil, I had virtually purged those dark days from my memory. :@ ;)

Thinking about it now, even Bangladesh's current side bats further down than 5 (waits for Richard....).

Total 60.82

Warne 13.33
Lee 15.66
Gillespie 20.32
McGrath 11.36

Suggests you're talking biased rubbish. Again.

no, their is nothing baised about that at all, its a fair comment though i must say these figures are shocking, lets compare them 1 on 1.

Warne vs Gilo - Giles has a slight edge here
Lee vs Hoggard - Lee surely
Dizzy vs Jones - Dizzy has the egge
Harmison vs Pigeon - Harmison wins :happy:

so overall its fairly even, but which tail do u think will do better???

For Lee vs Hoggard it depends what you want from the tailender.
If it was to score runs then Lee by a mile, but if you wanted someone to just not get out while a proper batsmen could score at the other end id go for Hoggard without hesitation.

The point is, you said it was easily Australia's. But it's not "easily" - that's why he said it was biased rubbish.

The funny thing is, the opposition has a quality batsman in Cairns at 8, and Vettori coming in at 10! In fact, from what I remember of O'connor, he wasn't a bad batsman either.
