henry was not anti team...yuh just bad mind. lara was ALL lara....i mentioned countless times how he dropped SIX catches off walsh when walsh was captain on a tour to pakistan all because he wanted the captaincy....i don' think he has dropped six catches since!!!

OK,sir!
I withdraw the comments re: your stance Lara!
