Daniel Flynn, 49 of the best

I said Daniel Flynn was no Nansy Pansy.

I was right.

Prince Brendan referred to him as a tough character.

He is right.

You agree with me or McCullum.

You are right.

His tightly constructed 49 was a testament to this very fact.

Let’s look at other players who have been hit in the head.

Mark Vermeulen, hit in the head by a Pathan cream pie and went so nuts that he burnt down stadiums and attacked well meaning spectators.

Soft.

Craig Cumming, got hit in the head in South Africa and has not played against a real test side since.

Soft.

Raman Lamba, fielding at short leg without a helmet, got in in the head, and then died.

Soft.

David Fulton, missed 8 weeks after what happened below.

Then he became a cricket journalist.

Soft.

Daniel Flynn.

Hard.

Why is he hard?

So far he has not burnt down a stadium, not played tests against Bangladesh only, died, or become a cricket journalist.www.cricketwithballs.com
