McCullum is the boss of smashing rubbish bowling.

He may well be faster than English bowlers . But I'm not comparing him to anyone else but himself.

His pace often covered him having a bad day. Today it is not.



Is there Drs available?

Malinga's been out for months having ankle surgery. Don't know how people expect him to be 100% given its his first odi game.

When New Zealand are in this great form it is the cricketing version of a hospital pass to send Malinga on recovery out to bowl.....he's too experienced to have his confidence damaged but it isn't the best start to a WC campaign....

Bit late to get lakmal on. Already looks more dangerous than the other bowlers after bowling 2 balls!

didn't hear you calling AB a slogger when he flogged a much poorer attack for his WR.. or De Cock... or Russow. Only Amla has class in the SA side

Agree Amla's class but has he played a match winning knock in a odi tournament? Not that I can remember. Not a big match player. A bit pointless averaging 50+ if you can't score when it counts

Amla's first World Cup jackass...

Did I say World Cup? How was his champions trophy? Or is that not a odi tournament?

In fact you check your facts jackass he played in the 2011 World Cup. What a mug you are.

Firstly it's de Kock and Rossouw...

Secondly de Villiers averages 50 in Tests, so yeah more than enough class.

Pretty laughable to call McCullum a wild slogger after that. Vast majority of his runs came from perfectly timed grounded shots bar a couple chipped intentionally into the gaps. That final ball was really his first attempt to go the whole way bar the free hit.

doesn't matter, mccullum is not classy test player but  in this modern format he's better than players like Finch etc. SA have enough of their own biffers Gerry. I like AB so think he's quality but he biffs jusrt as much as others./. difference is he can also bat properly unlike most other biffers

Haha. Told Gerry. Spends so much time with his head in Anderson cricinfo stats to find holes so he can be the massive troll he is. He actually knows sod all about his own countries cricket.
