Almost.
I'll save my luck for the mega draw and real $$$$ which isn't as good as this, but it will suffice [emoji3]

Batting very well, he is no mug with the bat though
Neser should be batting ahead of Starc (and I've wanted Starc to bat at 8 ahead of Cummins all this time).

He really doesn't look Test standard with some of his shots and leaves.
Not only should he have played at the ball that got him, he should have been seeing it like a watermelon.
Then he burns a review.



Guy averages over 100 in his 14 first innings with a lowest score of 47.
Must be doing something right

I hope Jimmy means Labuschagne really doesn't look test standard only sometimes with his extravagant and weird leaves and plays and misses.
If he means he doesn't really look test standard all round then that is a ridiculous comment.

England have been docked a further 3 WTC points for their slow over rates during the first test in Brisbane-
https://www.espncricinfo.com/story/mens ... st-1293676
England were originally handed a penalty of five World Test Championship (WTC) points - and fined 100% of their match fees - for maintaining a slow over rate in the first Test at the Gabba but the ICC on Friday announced the penalty would now be eight points in total.

"Last Saturday, it was announced that England would be docked five WTC points, one for each over they were found to initially have fallen short by," the ICC said in a statement. "However, it has since emerged they were eight overs short, and will therefore lose three additional points.

"The points deduction for penalty overs is not capped and must reflect the actual number of penalty overs a team is short of the minimum requirement as per Clause 16.1.2 of the ICC Playing Conditions, hence they have been penalised one point for each over they were short."
