Might drive you nuts, but can't question his record, alnost 200 wickets in under 50 tests. Holds the record for least tests played to get to 100 test wickets.

Despite his demeanor, you can't argue with his results, and other than Hogg (who is a fantastic one day spinner, just would not cut it in a test) the spin bolwing stocks are looking a little thin other than Dan Cullen and Cullen Bailey, both of whome are not ready for big time test cricket yet.

Agree with you both, won't be able to watch him bowling, atleast in limited overs you know he has only 10 overs.

Plus anyone whose initials are SCG deserves a game.

In all honesty he has just been damn unlucky to have been born into an era that also contained Warney. Otherwise he would have had a fair career in what is arguably the most dominant test side in the modern game.

I miss Langer, Martyn, Warne & McGrath already
