If he could continue to average as he did, throughout his career, you could drop a batsman and play an extra one of those hard to find bowlers.

The "shut up Ian Botham" thread makes me think that our time machine should bring these irritating commentators back to the real world:

AUS: Kerry O'Keeffe
ENG: Ian Botham
SA: Barry Richards
WI: Ian Bishop
NZ: Ian Smith
IND:Ravi Shastri
PAK:Asif Iqbal

A worryingly large percentage of "Ian"s there. I wonder if that means anything?

It would be very important to get a Harmison bumper high enough to eternally cease Kerry O'Keeffe's incredibly annoying laugh.
