You can only play on the pitch that you're playing on or against the opposition your playing against Kash.

no one else managed it so you can't mock it. I'm sorry but Sehwag is/was a lot better than Warner

True Dernbach however this is not a comparison of the two players but more due to the stadium they batted in. You have to admit 50 metre boundries in cricket is pretty pathetic too.

I agree that the boundaries were pathetically small & i don't understand why some pitches are so big & some so bloomin small!

Still a great knock, but you never know, he could have got 300 on a bigger pitch

Dernbach ask any woman big is not a problem but small grounds and you are left feeling cheated.

Those big bats and one swing and its a 6. Not really cricket is that?

I like big grounds & don't agree with small grounds mate but that's up to the ICC. All the players can do is smash big scores & that's what Sehwag did

kash lets it put it this way, in this next 2 years most of the teams are coming to india to play odis tests and so on. most of the indian grounds are small, if anyone does break sehwag's record, then i will happily disregard any indians who score a 100 in india. the thing is even in india it has only happened twice and that also after t20 came into action. 200 5 years ago was impossible to get. to get 200 first of all you need to be batting 1,2 or 3. and you need to bat atleast 40+ overs. havent seen any of the openers in the recent past bat a full 50 overs. that itself tells the story that its not easy to bat a full 50 overs. the last batsman i recall batting full 50overs is tendulkar.

Whats the highest individual batsman score in ODI's played in Australia?.In my memory, only 2 or 3 have crossed 150.Perhaps Mark Waugh is one of them.Where as there are more than dozen atleast who have scored more than 150 in small grounds of Asia.

Neon/viru correct me if I am wrong but I'm sure there has only been a couple of one dayers at that stadium so no the rest of the world have not had a chance bat Wimbledon centre court.

Neon don't go on the defensive I was comparing two knocks where Warner played really well on a large ground and I was wondering what his score would have been on the small ground Shewag batted in. He hit a lot of balls that were 4s on that ground but would have been 6s on that stadium where Shewag made 200.

Apples and oranges.

I've hit a straight six at Pinebanks, the home ground of my former team. The ground was (it has since been sold and is now houses I think...) one of if not the largest in Norfolk.

Not only was it a six to the longest boundary (90ish m and down a slope) but I also cleared a 20ish feet high fence several yards beyond the rope. It was quite probably the best, cleanest hit shot I have ever made.

Does that make me a better batsman than Warner, or Sehwag?

No.......but you can write a book on Crickets biggest & best tales though....
