Matches Posted Cricket History Redefined (2000) : The 'Hansie' Storm!

[VC the slogger]

Same goes for Chris Cairns and Nathan Astle. The former was one of the best all-rounders of his day, and the latter a batting all-rounder who was a very handy bowling option to have on many occasions. But both have been labeled as specialist batsmen, which I find quite ludicrous.

Why did you tag me? I am not the manager of any team here. I am certainly not managing an incorrect and incorrectly marked set of WI players. TBH I don't think you have proper knowledge of the roles and the abilities of the players of that time.

It was not incorrect.. It was the same squad that played in that series.... And for incorrectly marked, yes, I don't have enough knowledge about them.. But I am Still learnign

That is okay. Try and go through different series played during that time to get an idea of how good or what a player was known for. Good luck.

If Cairns, Astle & Fleming display the kind of form they did in the real life series, we should win this quite easily. I do hope Astle is rated favorably with the ball, because he was quite regular bowler back then and would bowl on average 6-8 economical overs per innings.

Craig Spearman
