They called him Audi. Was also known as Afghanistan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hesi Posted August 12, 2021 Author Share Posted August 12, 2021 No, it was definitely Steve Waugh who was named as the sledger. Looks like you are right though, Steve Waugh has the better stats Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
