All of a sudden in a way I kinda feel sorry for the dude and that he may have been misquoted. Lost In Translation! And when he tries to tell Vitori what he actually meantZIMDOGGY wrote: Has anyone stopped to think perhaps it was a language barrier thing?
Ordinary is one of those words that can be vague
Again maybe Tamim has made a statement to say dont get too excited about these guys, they are not as good as you think they are. And that is his opinion, he must now back his words with actions. Through out the whole series we will be watching the first 10 overs so far its Vitori 1 - Tamim 0 we will take an average at the end of the day. Now tehre is video footage of Vitori and Jarvis, by the time Pak and definitely NZ, then we will start to get a clearer picture. I am certainly hoping they are the real deal.ZIMDOGGY wrote:Maybe he meant: "I'm Tamim and I have tamed the greatest bowlers in this universe, and while you think yourselves very blessed to have unearthed two decent quicks where you had none before they are not Dale Steyn, Brett Lee or James Anderson."
Its also the teams job to psyche each other up and be positive to each other. I certainly never expected that from my opponents, I EXPECTED them to come with everything they had, I even a expected a couple of beamers.
