ricky gets a bit spanky

Brett Lee is in shit form.

Only for the last two tests.

In this 2020 world though, anything that happened more than 12 days ago is hard to remember.

Australia went to India with 4 bowlers.

Lee, the best quickie in the world.

Clark, the proctologist with the rinse in his hair.

Johnson, with the form in India, against India, and a tongue ring .

And McGain, the only test class spinner in Australia.

By the first test McGain’s shoulder was being prepped for surgery.

For the second test Clark’s elbow was stuck in a bucket of ice.

So the best quick bowler in the world was expected to stand up.

Alas, he didn’t.

Maybe this is a hangover from his separation, maybe he’s just not suited to India, or maybe he saw Hotel Rwanda on the way over and he hasn’t got over his ‘white guilt” just yet.

We wont know.

But we know one thing, Ricky Ponting doesn’t care.

Couldn’t give a shit.

Doesn’t give a fuck.

Not one little cracker.

Ponting is not a reason sort of bloke, he is a results sort of guy.

Lee isn’t giving them to him, so he publicly shits in Lee’s cereal.

Whether this improves Lee’s output wont be known until the next test.

We do know it didn’t work with Dizzy Gillespie, or Shaun Tait.

But they are South Australian.

I don’t have a problem with a bit of public flogging, but why are there different rules for batsmen than bowlers.

Lee gets embarrassed in front of the world.

Can you name a batsman that Ponting has publicly embarrassed anything like this?

Has Hayden ever been dropped down the orer when he is struggling?

When Katich couldn’t hit the ball in 2005, was the batting order changed and kasprowicz sent in before him?

Has Michael Clarke’s form ever been questioned when Australia is less than 3 for 150.

No.

But the bowlers get spanked around by Ricky every time Australia is losing.

If you want to be an asshole Ricky, that is fine, but be an equal opportunity asshole.
