Seems to be bowling a bit more in GC/PL too

Think the Australian coach has encouraged that a bit more... spent time with the squad over the winter as a net bowler plus taking advantage of the batting coaches during play.

Still giggling after watching Trav have a net during the Worcester tour game this year wearing his Redbacks lid and some Pommy ponce big noting himself to his mates that it was Ashton Agar in there hitting them. I me and my mates didn't correct them either.....

Raphael has plenty of starts this season, has his work cut out against Ryan Harris though....


Smith, is that Kelvin?

Opie to carry the drinks....

If Glenelg is the third, with Adelaide a 2nd what ground is the 3rd.

Has Adelaide Oval No 2 ever hosted a shield game?

From memory I think Prosoect held a game a few years ago

Adelaide Oval and Unley Oval are the only 2 venues to host First Class cricket in this state from memory.

Glenelg will be the 3rd.

Prospect has hosted 2nd XI matches along with Glenelg and Park 25.

Amazing game of cricket at Unley. Two 9 wickets in innings, a hatrick, Giffen 55ov in 1st innings none in 2nd inn. SA won after being made to follow on

Just saw the The Australia A XI to face England:

Moises Henriques (Captain) NSW
Glenn Maxwell (Vice-Captain) VIC
Trent Copeland NSW
Ben Cutting QLD
Alex Doolan TAS
Callum Ferguson SA
Jon Holland VIC
Usman Khawaja QLD
Michael Klinger SA
Shaun Marsh WA
Tim Paine TAS

FFS hopefully this doesnt interupt with the redbacks fixturing. Already lost Ferg for all but one game of the one day season just so he could sit in india and do Sweet **** all.

Hows Copeland getting a game? Couldnt even get a state gig in a team missing starc and cummins in the ryobi cup? I see Holland is getting a gig too. So i am guessing he is infront of Agar and Ahmed now in the pecking order?

That Australia A vs England match is on Gem starting Wed 6th Nov, I think it's a four day tour match.

Redbacks play WA in Perth at the same time as the Australia A game.

All six states are playing at the same time, with WA to lose Shaun Marsh

I think I might head up to Glenelg on Friday.

will be interesting to see who they bring into the squad to cover Maxxy now.

Smith
Raphael
Head
Cooper
Brown/Dougall/ a smokey could be Tim Evans
Botha
Ludeman
Mennie
Sayers
Zampa
George

Jake Brown would be my tip....

Hughes will be back in Australia by then so he will prob come into the team.

Please

Hughes straight swap for Klinger.
The Aust A is not the second best team picked either. They only wanted two players from each state. So they don't disrupt the shield sides to much

Glenelg FC Twitter account just said it's FREE ENTRY to this match.

Glad I didn't end up paying for an Ultimate Membership

I'll be there Saturday. Hopefully there'll be a few people there taking advantage of the opportunity with me

Shield has been free for 3 or 4 years.
