Anil Kumble's Return: Much Ado About Nothing
These expert commentators often make me wonder whether they really have lost the plot or simply have hidden agendas when spurt such ill-considered claptrap. I might be more inclined to understand if a fan with absolutely no background in formal club or representative cricket had vociferously called for Dhoni to be permanently anointed captain from the third Test. Chappell should know better.
As a hypothetical, assume the following for the next Ashes series:
- Ricky Ponting plays poorly in the drawn first Test, is injured and replaced by Shaun Marsh for the second Test;
- Michael Clarke captains in the second Test and the Aussies win by a healthy margin;
- Marsh blasts a century on the fourth day of the second Test to set the win up for the Aussies;
Chappell and his ilk are employed to provide us, the fan, with justifiable, well reasoned and insightful analysis of events. Ian, do everyone a favour and spare us the amateurism. We already have to endure far too much of this class of nonsense.
