Teams you root for

He is a bowling all-rounder like Harbhajan. Both of them seem to have forgotten to bowl though.

Get back to topic

Oh really? I never knew that

How lucky I am that your lucid grip on reality is at hand to correct my clear and obvious error.

So, since you're so keen to get us back on topic, afterall, there was at least 2 posts there between me and Barmy that, in continuing the on-topic and friendly conversational tone we had adopted, were clearly not about teams we root for. How about you get us restarted again?

If the BCCI members were all arrested tomorrow for being corrupt crooks that protect their own interests ahead of even their own players (hypothetically of course) which board would you want to become the dominant board that gets to dictate the terms to everyone else? Which team of board members would you root for?

Makes you feel important. The more hate you have going for you, the more important you are.

Sieg Heil

1. West Indies
I only support West Indies.

Beside that, I would Say Bangladesh and Sri Lanka I like they Sprite.

so my pick Teams in Ranking
1 West Indies
2 Sri Lanka
3 Bangladesh
4 Pakistan
5 South Africa
6 England
7 Australia
8 India
Dont really watch Zim, NZ or de rest Cricket

Yup as I mentioned if they are ready to be transparent with the matter regarding Gayle irrespective of him playing then it would be better. They have all the facility(proper domestic circuit implemented) + coaches + players of the caliber of top 4 teams(Darren Bravo + Kird Edwards + Braithwaite + Bishoo + Edwards + Roach) make a deadly combo on their day but somethings wrong

I really like Gayle and would love him to play for WI. but also on the other hand i dont want him play reason is when he play, the WHOLE team reley on him, i perfer seeing Gayle play away from persure and play those Domestic Cricket around de worlld, instead of playing for the West indies.
There is only one Problem in West Indies Cricket and that is our Captain beside that, West Indies have a very young and capable team to make the team rise, it's just people picture Gayle and think that all West Indies is about, when West Indies Drop from number 1 to number 8 Position During Gayle's Career. to be presses they were Rank number 3 when Gayle made his Debut.

For me West Indies isnt Gayle, West Indies is those 11 Player out in de Middle. This what made West Indies like de 70's and 80's an unbeatable Team, because of team effort a Team not a one Man Army. Team Effort Main West Indies win the ICC Championship Trophy. With Iam BRadsaw who Avg 8 then won de game for de Team.

I don't understood why WI would hate Sammy. He is a good leader and really works hard. I doubt they have a better leader than him ATM.

Yeah that was really an awesome fightback to win that trophy when they were down and dusted in that match.That partnership between Courtney Browne and Ian Bradshaw surprised all and I can still remember the shocked look on Michael Vaughan and his England teammates after that loss

 

[Papa_Smurf]

Chak de India!!!!!

India No. 1!!! )

We r champs! Only team to follow. Others jealous they wish IPL, we have IPL lol

 

[Papa_Smurf]

But being serious, I don't really have a team that I die-hardly support. I just enjoy cricket for what it is - a beautiful and complicated sport. On-topic, I guess the closest team would be Pakistan. I've always enjoyed watching them, and I have a lot of time for the current side being led by Misbah. Sri Lanka and West Indies are up their too. I love the Aus-SA rivalry, and I've never enjoyed a series as much as I enjoyed their latest clash. I like to support Bangladesh, but that's mainly due to the under-dog tag. For some reason, I've never developed a strong interest in English cricket. Seems strange as it was because of a British friend I got introduced to the sport. India just piss me off.

Re-reading that, I guess my order would be:

1. Pakistan
2. West Indies
3. Sri anka
4. South Africa
5. Australia
6. Bangladesh
7. New Zealand
8. England
9. Zimbabwe
10. India

Nice logic fail Yudi

So the moment you don't like something, you are jealous of them? Maybe this is why you're all so strange.

----------

Is it because we colonised you, why you hate us so much? I mean we didn't have a fight with the Aussies, cause frankly they're a bunch of crims and we don't want them associated with us, so they got to keep Australia without a fight But we walked all over your country for a few years, had fun with the local ladies, did a bit of killing and got to add your country to the "You've been Queen Vic'd" list before you eventually managed to pull it together and kick us out.

Even today you guys all come keep coming to the West to study here, I mean if you hate us so much, why keep coming? I know Mark needs a taxi driver every now and then, but sorry guys that's a one man job

----------

Yes, I am bored I am really hoping Sai bites, he is priceless for good quality fails

----------

Actually Sai, lives in America. There you go. Prime example

Wayne's not a very Irish name...

Also, I really like the way Ireland has, in twenty years, got into the top 10 ODI sides in the world, and realistically got close to test cricket. Att present they don't get enough matches against full members though - I'd have thought they'd be ideal as the third leg of a tri-series.
