Not our fault that you are insecure about your sexuality.
 
:laugh

Mac thats part of the appeal of cricket, there is civility behind the sport. I would hate for it to turn into baseball with uneducated rednecks spitting in each others faces and arguing with the umpires.
 
W/e International sports should be all about toughness. You don't have to put a smile on your face or giggle all the time, or be a wuss. That's why we have soccer. But I don't mean I want to see more players like Sreshanth or UV.

Ponting, Tait, Styen, Gayle, Hayden, Lee etc. Those are one of the toughest players. Don't you think they never smile? Ya they do. But that doesn't mean they are always smiling nor smiling more often should make then more likable then the other players. I hate how in cricket community people tend to dislike "non-Murali" or "Non-smiling" players. It's like they are bouncha bad guys.

Just because Murali a 'SMILEY' face, doesn't make him a nice guy. Nor that should be the reason to like him more.
 
That is the beauty of spin bowling. You don't need to be all ferocious when bowling, you outwit your opponent, fox them into doing something silly. Murali is the smiling assassin. That is just who he is and a big part of his cricketing legacy.
 
LOL one name Benny boy!

Jokes apart, Warne was ferocious. And I rate him way higher than Murali. Again, people rate him down or dislike him because of his personal life.

Murali is a rookie next to Warne.
 
Why are you stirring the pot so ferociously?

McLovin is always in 'that time of the month'. Manstrating, if you will (big bang theory reference).

Haha, I think the summer boredom is getting to him, take a road trip with some friends or get a job, you might go crazy otherwise.
 
It's 100 degrees out side! And summer is boring! Specially not the one that ends your high school. I just got sick after 4th of July!

And I stick to what I said earlier. You guys dont have to agree with me.

shravi, stfu.
 
Muralitharan is a great player. I don't understand why he is ending his Test career after the first Test. It could have been after the 3 Tests would be finished.

By that he will also have more chance of reaching the 800 Test wickets.

Yeah I was wondering why he would do that. Why retire after just the first match. If he played in the 3 matches that would have gicen him 6 at least 6 innings to take 8 wickets. He would have easily got to 800.
 
Maybe he just lost the will to go on and play test cricket. He probably wanted to go out playing rather then saying I'm done after a long lay off. If he gets the 8 wickets then great if he doesn't he is still the leading wicket taker by far and it wont really make that much of a difference.
 
The amount of test matches played may decrease over the years so he'll probably keep that record anyways. 800 is just another number now.
