Bevan - The Best Ever.

Special Delivery · Post by **Special Delivery** » Sat Mar 08, 2003 8:46 am

It's like beating your head against a brick wall with you my friend.

All of those fantastcially endearing quotes bored me to tears unfortunately.

I agree that tendulkar is the best batsman currently in the world.

No argument about that. so please desist from downloading half of the internet to back that point up.

From the beginning, the statement has been that Bevan has proven repeatedly-and then some-to be the man when it comes to one day cricket.

One day cricket JLC, not overall, not the best of all crixket genres.

I firmly believe he is the best one day performer of his time.

Now since you are a stat man-you can't go past an average of 55 period.

Sachin's only exceeds that domestivally in India.

And I further note the first 20 or so quotes you lifted are from his brothers on the sub continent.

But what makes Bevan that little bit more special is that he has shone in a team of champions and indeed a champion team.

When the likes of Gilchrist, Hayden, Ponting, Both Waughs, Langer etc have all failed in an innings and Australia are looking down the barrel...who is there.

Michael Bevan.

India look to Sachin by and large and Sachin alone. That is why he is a standout.

For Bevan to be so dominant in a team that has so many champions is a special thing that Sachin cannot claim to have.

Bevan-the best ever-in One day history.

In one day history.

Find me people who agree with you on Bevan......at least two people would be good.

Sir Donald Bradman, Waugh, McGrath and Warne were all on that list...

I won't even dignify that with a response.

How untoward, how recalcitrant, how...hang on-have to check my thesaurus...

How incorrigable!

THIS TOPIC MAKES ME SICK! it should have read BEVEN- the most boring nonteam oriantated player!

Micheal Beven makes me SICK! cant believe how he' wins to or three games for australia and becomes the best eva, he playes for his average!!! AM I THE ONLY ONE WHO SEE'S THE SNOB that is beven, he's a total fraud!! just like JLC and that said, he'll make it come down to the last couple of balls on perpose, just to be loved. my m8 once was getting photo's with all the players, McGrath wa a great bloke along with the others, but beven! an absolute (I'm a dinosaur)! sorry to say but this topic makes me sick! Beven can go shuve his average up his arse as far as im concerned! Bloody Fraud! thats all it is.

lol

footy ROX!

Oh my god would you grow up JLC! When there's bloody 4 balls left in the innings you expect them to bring out Bevan? I'm now convinced you have no idea! When there's only a few balls left you bring out someone who can make a few quick runs don't you? I just thought that was common sense!

Courageous,

I haven't read a greater load of muttering jibberish since...um...JLC's last post.

Read over your post again, go to the fridge, get a lamb chop, and slap yourself in the face.

JLC my friend, the argument is over and I have come out the victor my flashy foe.

Having to comment about who came in first with four balls to spare...all I can do is de-spair.

Yeah you are the victor in your eyes. However who are you fooling by saying Bevan is the best. You certainly havnt fooled me. The only person you have fooled is Nicki. But then again she still holds out hope of Slater replacing Langer....lol

I am still to read one expert who agrees with you?? Go on show me one expert who says Bevan is the best player in the world. Thats right you are the "expert" apparently.

I came up with quotes from people who have played the game and would have played against both players. Yet that was not good enough for you.

You then go into another forum like a fruit loop talking about Bevan. Very strange most people would think.

However if you say it a few more times you may just convince yourself that Bevan is better....
