:lol: :lol:

Thought I'd have a look.

Outside of India he has 9 wickets @ 62.778

He has played a grand total of 3 Tests outside of India

The dark days of Indian cricket in the 90's are back.
Pretty much that entire line-up is useless outside of home.

Ganguly's reign worked hard to learn to compete overseas, Dhoni's time has undone all that with the IPL having a bit to do with it too.

Ashwin has Hughes pining for the gentle fast-mediums of Martin and the familiar face of Guptill in the cordon.

Looking forward to watching Hughes' last day of test cricket here today.

Hopefully the boys can at least send him off without the innings defeat that he deserves

Whatever happened to the hype around Hughes, wasn't he the prodigy? (the Big Show before the Big Show)

When those of us outside Australia said despite his early record, nobody that looked that technically awful could be consistently good, we were bagged... when Chris Martin owned him, it was a learning experience... now finally are we accepting he's shite on anything but a road without a decent helping of good fortune...

That means nothing JJ. Martin is world class

Tom is indeed a legend of the game, and his exploits will live forever in folklore...

A footnote to that legend is that he made Hughes look like he himself does with the bat... and now Ashwin has done the same...

Martin's not in our test team at the moment, I'm sure he'd be willing to fly over and bat #3 in the next test for you :)

Mark and Steve Waugh look in reasonable shape too, and Hayden as well...

That generation was special... amazingly special... this new one, rubbish... when Clarke is the only one in your top 6 that would definitely make a NZ team, you're talking about the 1980's depths... difference is your current band of quicks looks really good, and we have no Hadlee :(
