    • Chris Tavare against India in 1985

      painstakingly slow

        I've seen worse

      • haha

        didn't he once take 75 mins to get off the mark?

        • from cricinfo

          "In the Madras Test at the start of 1982 he eked out 35 in nearly a day; in the Perth Test at the end of 1982 he endured almost eight hours for 89. At one stage of the latter innings he did not score for more than an hour."

          I used to watch cricket with my Grandad during summer holidays. Whenever Tavare came in he'd go "Right, I'm off to make a cup of tea. By which I mean, fly to India and grow some. Let me know when that tortoise is off the mark"

                the best century is THIS century, and before that it was the century before that, and before that it was the century before that.

                    • what a ludicrous ridiculous question

                      so why am i answering it?

                      Its impossible to say without qualification, so I will say that the turning of the C17th to C18th was rather cool from the point of view of poetry/ideas/writing and just people starting to have their minds enlightened (compared with what preceeded it)

                                      i would say the last one, but the whole 'holocaust' thing brings it down for me.

                                      3rd Century BC, when we still beleived in Paganism
