George Bailey is almost considered a specialist captain isn't he? You can captain T20s easier without having to contribute with bat and ball ie Warney. But as soon as you move to 50 over cricket there is nowhere to hide let alone the fact he isn't captain at the moment.

What's the definition of tryhard? Someone who mentions there a " rock star" every time they appear in the media.

Shhhhhhhhhh! Don't mention that to Bunniesman. Good Charlotte are his heroes. He went to great lengths to defend them last time someone mentioned that the Madden brothers are milking Australia for everything they can

Yeah, with Michael Beer it wasn't surprising because Shane Warne was the one who was spruiking him and CA obliged. Also, with Rohan Gavaskar, he mainly got in because of his father (i.e. nepotism).

However, I have to say that the cricumstances which led to Bailey getting into the Australian team are very suspicious. I've never seen anything like that before in my 17 years or so of following cricket. He was just a Nigel nobody in state cricket and out of nowhere, then appeared in the national side (and furthermore, as captain). Even his state stats aren't that flattering (averaging less than 40 in Sheffield Shield). Go figure!

I guess there is an element of truth to what Brad McNamara said when he said Bailey could be "flipping burgers" (most likely at McDonalds).:lol:

WTF? Massive inside edge! This is bullshit, this is why the third umpire MUST come into the game and reverse decisions like this! What a f**ken farce!

Warner out LBW for 60

No wonder he's filthy about it. As Brad McNamara would say he got enough wood on it tobuild a billy cart
