Why's that, furry? His piece is poorly argued whether it be a wind-up or not. 　Bit like one of your posts, in fact. Very Happy

Perhaps he's just trying to provide an alternate, interesting viewpoint to it all? Cricket is meant to be fun, after all. So whats wrong with having a bit of fun with ratings and statistics? Lighten up you lot.

Who's wound up? I'm just commenting on his poor methodology in coming to his feeble conclusion.　A total waste of 3 mins reading time.

But surely trev even with your complete lack of common sense you could understand that giving 10 or so 20/20 games equal weighting with 4 years of test/one day cricket is a rather flawed formula.
