Torneyboy Posted August 12, 2005 Report Share Posted August 12, 2005 Shane Warne has 600 test wickets. Warne reached this amazing total when he took the wicket of Trescothick in the third test. The only cricketer to take over 600. The greatest bowler ever? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arkutha Posted August 13, 2005 Report Share Posted August 13, 2005 torneyboy warney is a legend and is truly the greatest i've seen. he needs to do something magical in the second innings as the poms seem to have the upper hand. I think this will be Gillespie's last test for Australia, he is bowling with no confidence and has lost his pace.The poms as smashing him all over the ground. Time for a change Take care Arkutha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sayjann Posted August 13, 2005 Report Share Posted August 13, 2005 taking nothing away from him as his record shows what a legend he is...........but. greatest spinner ever seen IMO but i still prefer the West Indies fast attack of many Years. Walsh and Marshall were fantastic Bowlers IMO and i loved watching them put the fear of God into Players in the Windies heyday. these Days Bouncers are a thing of the past and frowned upon unlike many Years ago. yes,bouncers still happen but the Umpires are quick to tell the bowlers to behave themselves as it is not in the spirit of the 'modern' Game. Ashley Giles ball to dismiss Martyn was a classic and very much like Warne's in his first Ashes test in 1993 when he dismissed Gatting with his first ball. GAME ON................. but still 35 needed for the follow on and i think you WINGERS are fucked.............. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arkutha Posted August 15, 2005 Report Share Posted August 15, 2005 we need a world record second innings score of 422 think we will try for it, but if we loose a few wickets early on, close up shop and play for a draw. Many firsts in this test, and I know the aussies would want to create their own piece of history. fingers crossed Arkutha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
