and what was Mark Waugh's nickname before he also broke into the test team ?

I reckon Mark Waugh was overrated and was lucky to have played so many tests and odi for Australia . Stewart Law, Michael Bevan, Jamie siddon Michael and David Hussey should have played a lot more tests for Australia.

Quarterman had his ego hurt because he still wanted to be 'the man'. All he showed me is that he was incapable of playing team basketball and doing whatever it takes to win. If that means a diminished role for himself then so be it. You are right though, the coach had no spine and couldn't make the tough call. If you aren't going to structure the team around Simmons don't ask him to come. The entire one-done situation is a FARCE but thats another conversation. Simmons has basically lost 2 years in the league because of it.

LSU didnt make Simmons injure his foot in a Sixers practice, please just stop. You people are ridiculous. Simmons chose to go to LSU, they didnt make him come. He could have gone pro in Australia, but I guess he really doesnt like that country too much (I can see why given how dumb some of their basketball fans are).

What is this non-sense... The most beautiful batsmen I've seen with my 2 eyes! How about his catching... softest pair of hands the game has seen. Absolute BLASPHEMY!

He will be but come on dude, test match pitches are doctored so that the matches go 5 days. Like any sport the game has changed to produce more scoring. Even the bowlers aren't of the quality of the 80s, 90s and 00s.
 
The LSU team was better without Simmons btw, when they still had Tim Quarterman and NBA stars like Jordan Mickey and Jarrell Martin. Simmons made the team worse because of how hard he is too incorporate into a team, just deal with it. it doesnt make him a bad player, but please be more mature than just blaming everything on the people around him.

To be honest, his test batting average of 43 is pretty average.
Mike Hussey, Darren Lehmann and Stewart Law were much better batsman than him.
Great slip fielder though..

I actually think he was probably the most talented cricketer I've seen. Just wasn't as passionate as others.

Pretty good. I'd have Langer in for Slater (no question) though and I reckon if I though hard enough I'd find someone in front of AB also.

Michael slater was the pioneer of aggressive batting in test cricket. It was slater who changed the way players bat in test cricket. Players like Sehwag and Hayden only adopted his aggressive batting style.
I remember Langer did not do very well in his last 2 years as a batsman in tests cricket.
 
Your questions are too easy, by the stairs, under the clocks, there is a store that sells what?

He was not even the best batter in his family. Steve waugh was much better.

Jnr had more talent in his right hand than Steve ever had. Steve had more work ethic and dedication than jnr could dream of having.
