Some people just can't come to praise someone for achievements.


Me, well I'd give my left bollock to be in a position to score a double ton against India, never mind actually doing it twice.

Anyone good enough to do it should be applauded, to belittle it is pathetic.

Give Dhoni a call, I'm sure he'd be more than happy to let you get 200,300,1000 runs.

Did you have chips for tea Gerry?? There seems to be one on your shoulder...

More a potato waffle kinda of guy...

You certainly waffle on at any rate

I'll tell you what,(waffling, no waffling, chips or whatever else), if McCullum ever scores a 200 against Australia, South Africa or England - I'll give him some kudos. Until then, I've got no more to say.

Don't argue with him cam! No point, whatever his reply, he'll get Vic and every other aus/Sa member clicking the like button. Better to ignore and move on.

I was only trying to have a bit of fun, should have realised that wasn't going to happen on this thread really

If England were in town now I'd back McCullum to do the same. Mate your getting burned on here, I hate when people who are obviously wrong continue to stay on course, just give it up.
What ever your reason is, a test match century against anyone is still a massive achievement but 200 twice against the number 2 test side is amazing (Dizzy Gillespie's 200 vs Bangaladesh is one of my all time highlights). NZ were 52/3 and in all sorts when he strode to the wicket. What planet are you on?

McCullum is a star in all three formats, amazing fielder and getting better and better as a captain.

[potzy248]

Hater? What are you 10 years old...

McCullum in the form of his life? You sound as deluded as Iain Smith. He's been dropped 3/4 times.

South Africa could lose 0-3 to Australia, will I burst into tears? No chance.

Scored a few double ton's without giving chances have you. Deluded? Feel like creating a poll asking who thinks Gerry SA is deluded. I already know the result though.

Jeremy Coney is my favourite studio pundit by a million miles.

Food for thought

Since 2009 these are the number of double 100s scored against the 4 sides that have been ranked world number 1.

South Africa 2 -  Clarke 259* & 230
England 3 - Sarwan 291, Amla 311* & Pujara 206*
Australia 5 - Tendulkar 214, Cook 235*, Pietersen 227, Dhoni 224 & Pujara 204


Now for India. AN EYEWATERING 15 scores over 200.
Ryder 201
Jayawardene 275
Amla 253*
Sangakkara 219
Kallis 201*
Pietersen 202*
Cook 294
Bell 235
Ponting 221
Clarke 329* & 210
McCullum 225, 224 & 281*

Now tell me how good India are...

Apart from Ryder, that is a list of some of the best players to have played the game in the last 10 years. McCullum can now be added to that list.

McCullum is no way near 'one of the best players off the last 10 years'

[Steveo1000]

And actually, if it wasn't for the fact he is a bit unhinged I reckon Ryder has the talent to be one of the best.

[smilley792]

On your basis, surely the batsmen that haven't made double centuries against India are not good enough for the game?

Smith? De villiers? Etc etc. man if you can't get a double ton against India, you Might aswell go get a job at mcdonalds. What was they thinking!
