 Ian Smith can talk but does not research Ian is currently commentating on channel 9 in Australia , recently made the comment that "Justin Langer" is not a natural athlete unlike a few of his Aussie team mates (eg the master of the unwanted "text message" Sir Shane "the golden sms'er" Warne . Dear Ian for your information in 1994 "Justin Langer" was rated "number 3" in Australia , in a overall grouping of the most popular mainstream "Karate" styles. I suggest if you would like to test out your aspersions about "Justin" not being much of an athlete , you might try to organise a private meeting with him behind a grandstand of your chosing , to test how un-athletic he is.

| Justin Langer? The man with a martial arts black belt? Who just scored 215 in 37 degree heat and diddent look botherd?? Ian Smith says a lot of things. God only knows why CH9 would hire him. Surely there was somebody better?

| Not the recently sacked Ian Chappell obviously Beny . |

| Is this the same guy who is responsible for talking up NZ as favorites against England earlier this year?

| Ian's fame was definitely built on the effort and unrewarded hard work that our other great "victorious captain of an Indian subcontinent tour prior to 5/6 star hotel and invention of the microwave" Bill Lawry put in. Don Bradman maybe god but Gilly sits on his left hand side and Warnie on his right. |

| What I find annoying is his ability to whinge on and on when the Black Caps are down. I find it really annoying, he is partly why NZ is somewhat overrated at times.

| True VVV , he is the epitome of mediocrity acceptance , much the same as Daniel Vettori's test and one day averages. I suggest "Frodo" and "Geldorf" should be considered for selection , along with Peter Jackson. Forget the dwarf (obviously David Boon in disguise). |

| I'd agree with your criticism of Ian Smith, I was at times so frustrated and annoyed with his strictly one-sided comments that I just switched the volume to mute. |

| NZ is not overrated. Sure they have felt a beating from Australia but which team hasn't felt their wrath before. Enough sly comments about LOTR characters, we make good movies and play good cricket!
