I see your World Class hero has been dropped from the squad doing a tour of NZ. The coach sent him off with some nice words but truth be told he won't be back, at 36yrs of age he ain't going to achieve what he should have achieved at 26yrs of age. The coach has simply run out of patience and had to let Henducks go.....I say good riddance although it's much too late. Trouble was, like you his coaches were hoping against hope, it wasn't a lack of opportunity it's more a case of him failing to make use of the opportunity afforded to him and in that way he should have secured his permanence at the top of the order.

Funny though one would think that with your lifetime in the game you'd be able to pick a loser from a distance.....not so, kinda looks like losers pick losers..

Notice somethin Kakkies......no-one in the IPL was frothing at the bit to offer him a contract.....ever wonder why??? that alone would have told you something, but no, with the bone between your jaws you kept hoping and shrieking while making an absolute goose of yourself. You can do some awful damage to yourself by repeatedly running or bumping your head into a brick wall.

For all I care you and your mate Chimpo can cry on each others shoulder, to be honest I think the pair of you would fit well into CSA's abysmal administration. I won't miss Henducks, neither will Mickey....the pair of you will.

I gave up on Reeza years ago, He was good when he played for the Free Syaye - but never rally took the step up to test level and for me he had never proved that he is an Inenonal level player. Batting averages tell us th whole story:-


ODI's = 27,05

T20's = 30,02

Tests = 33,73


Anything below 40 in the case of top order batsmen on international level is just not good enough,

Well you know I promised Chimp-ou a response but now you've beaten me to it......tx I just didn't have the energy or desire to waste on a Dumbo.

A Dumbo who classifies Bavuma as an all-time great but in the same stroke relegates him to carrying the drinks tray. Am I missing something here????

And that Henducks is ranked 9th in T20 ....but neglects to mention that his batting average is a deplorable 30% and that's nogal the only version of the game he plays.

So to summarize, a 36yr old T20 specialist, ranked 9th, heading south, and after all the years still only has a 30% average.

Give me a break!

I also looked a another 36 year old that should not be in the squad either and that is Van der Dussen. It i nted for years now that some players played shot batting innings for a long list of matches and the suddenly made a 50 and the BS restarted,

Chippo = Easy to work out - it is the average number of runs scored in all matches a player played n. If a player is NOT OUT in an innings the nmber of innings batted is reduced by one match played. .

Thanks for clarifying Mike.

so if a batsman plays his first match and scores 50, is he a 50% batsman?
