OMG!!i never knew Brad Hodge retired!!this lalitmodi-crazy Indian media did not find that important!
I will miss Brad Hodge…and used to enjoy his fielding.2 of his catches in the deep i will never forget.To dismiss Kevin Peiterson at Old Trafford and in the t20 semifinal vs India,to dismiss Gambhir!that was a splendid one.

All – thanks for the support. Good to see real cricket fans that are in awe of me. The longer format of the game will miss me

Aussie should make IPL clone and make the Telecast free and let viewers get addicted to the quality of cricket. You never know it could be as famous as NBA.

Mock, the question was “someone, somewhere deserving will be left out no?” Yeah, I should have worded it better.

It was in response to Hewy’s comment about all those who should have played test cricket but didn’t.

Anon, Still alot of people with light blue caps in the set up, 6 players with the right colour cap out of 11. Regardless of where they were born. And I doubt Hauritz would have been picked out of club cricket had he been playing in South Australia.

Funny how non-NSW fans drone on and on about only NSW getting called up – there are actually only three NSW”s in the current team – the rest came from elsewhere.

3 NSW
3 QLD
2 WA
2 TAS
1 VIC
0 SA

a couple of pseudo-Blues like Horrie and TWatto pushed out the genuine articles.

And didn’t Katich come from WA Too?

CM, you’re right – not about the mass-production :-P , but about someone always missing out. There are so many quality players that they just won’t all get a chance. Darren Lehman was a good example, he was a good player but who was going to make way for him? One of the Waugh brothers? Ponting? Gilly? Not bloody likely.

I am a Lancashire supporter and really like Hodge, but he is a Victorian so how much chance did he really have?
