From Ravi Kumar Putcha, Singapore This whole thing started off with Matthew Hayden - 486 runs from 11 matches, the orange cap, and a good match against a guy returning from a long lay-off - and Hayden was off. People should have realised that for a player who called an opponent "obnoxious weed" and who thought nothing of the contradiction between calling India a "third world country" and then running after the money the Indian Premier League offered, even after retirement, calling a struggling quick an "overrated bowler" was no great leap of imagination or faith. Nor is this a big deal for a man who criticized his Indian opponents for batting for their ODI hundreds, only for Cricinfo to prove, with statistics, that the slowest player to go from 50 to 100 in ODIs at the same time he offered this precious gem was, unsurprisingly enough, Matthew Hayden. |
