smiths past ponting as a batsmen I guess now

mind you Ponting got to 61 for a bit there at his peak

It's kind of like conceding that Winx has overtaken Kingston Town. You can cling on to "Kingston Town was trained up for Cups" and "Ricky Ponting batted at 3" but you just can't ignore sheer dominance over an extended period.

Fair point

I have a massive bias to punter

I guess I was only clinging to his apex

But Smith has gone beyond even that

He would have to fall in a heap from here

If he makes a duck in his next 30 inns he will still average 50!

That’s *en amazing isn’t it

Not sure how people lump Kohli and root in with him

 

[Punts]

Let’s not forget how good Ricky was and imo when cricket was at its best also

 

[The King!]

Plundered some good attacks

 

[Grand Uncle Horace]

I always looked forward to watching Punter bat.

 

[Mister B]

Paine’s positive captaincy with the surprise declaration when England were trying to slow the game down was a factor here, and may have brought about the 2 early wickets to Cummins late on day 4.

Maybe Tasmanians are ok?

Woah! Hold your horses mate. You drunk?

Don't answer your 2 liners

 

[GotTheGoodes]

Marsh... are you bloody serious? FFS.

 

[bedford]

Not a massive wrap , but I've got a feeling he might go ok and a right hander.

 

[Nool Carpenna]

Might as well play Smith, Labuschagne, a keeper and 8 bowlers... it’s all we need
