Miss you Flem



[davidjames1923]

Always liked Flem but 9 tons with 45 50's in tests... man that return guts me, should have had a higher average too..... just making an average of 40 means he never reached his potential in my opinion, When he was in form he was awesome to watch! Frustrating though

[MuthaFockingBoss]

The world xi!!! do u have footage of the 10 over match they played at the end of the series, i would love to see it

[NJCof83]

Looks rigged..never seen Murali bowl so many half volleys, all in the slot. Good striking though.

[pacus123]

@NJCof83 Yes I agree. For a change Murali was bowling the ball rather than throwing it. Had he thrown the ball a few times he'd have chucked Fleming out a long time ago.

[alanv9]

@NJCof83 Yeah, he was throwing up some dollies! This match was part of a series to raise money for the tsunami appeal in 2005, with $5000 donated by the NZ government for each 6 hit. Sri Lanka was hit hard by that tsunami, so I guess Murali had a vested interest in how many 6's were hit.

The next day we had "Fleming tames Muralitharan" as headline in our local newspaper!!

He was so majestic to watch! And the GM bat sticker suits him so much! Along with Marcus Trescothick cant think of a player for whom the GM bat looked prettier!!

Been a few years since he retired but still have a poster of him in the corner of my room. It reads - CAPTAIN COURAGEOUS!

[robelinda2]

@9fernandotorres GM bats were always my favourite! Fleming, Crowe and Steve Waugh - my heroes in the 90's.

[9fernandotorres]

@robelinda2

My bad that i missed Tugga on the GM appreciation list!! He is definitely up there!! I started watching cricket 1998 onwards as a 9 year old so unfortunately could not watch any of Martin Crowe innings live!! Had hopped to follow his comeback but injury did not let it happen!!

[DoubleDown200]

@9fernandotorres flem's my favourite as well i really like his elegance but i thnk this charity match was kinda fixed, warne & murali wer bowling pies at him..probly cos the game was held in nz... fixed mite not b the right word but im pretty sure they wudve had an understanding

[9fernandotorres]

@DoubleDown200 Have to agree with you. Maybe Warnie and Murali were talking it easy. After this innings, whenever Flem faced Murali I assumed he would get better of him. But it didn turn out so!!

[DoubleDown200]

@9fernandotorres yeah lol but nonetheless he was definitly the man, good to see him in demand for his coaching aswell

[9fernandotorres]

@DoubleDown200 Wish him all the best and hope he has a great coaching career!! :)

[NZrukus]

Great batsman, Great Skipper, Great Coach!!! I would say, NZ's best player of his era

[Jackpot00]

such a bizzare game. Fleming never showed this kind of form again.

[mayb50]

I remember them having a 10 overs each game after this one, have you uploaded it?

[JFK2684]

he's an elegant player

[MooingChoir]

I think this was in a charity game for the Tsunami in 2004

[pavansnehith]

he plays all the shots with incredible ease n rob do u have his century vs south africa in 2003 world cup.

[robelinda2]

@pavansnehith already uploaded it

[fartexpertable]

[IshYarKhan]

@fartexpertable ...yes...its World XI

[0l0ri0n77]
