I think the selectors are that silly they will keep the same team.


Burns open with Harris, Usman goes to 4 and replaces Marsh.

I'll wait to see who hits a swash-buckling 60 off 30 balls in the BBL before deciding on who will get the call up for Sri Lanka.

Head was our leading run scorer, he'll get dropped to work on his technique

There was one about the Mosey's from Eudunda/Robertstown the other day, then the Faith Coulthard one yesterday, I love watching and reading stuff like that, everyone has a unique story behind themselves.


Neil Kearney tells a story like no other and this one was a ripper to tell.

1006 games!

Yep, wants to be buried in his whites.


Is this available online somewhere that you know of.?
The BLCA medal is named the Mosey medal.

I hope Handke has a suitable nickname ie “Booger” or “Sniffles”.

Just watched the post match press conferences, you have to admire Ravi Shastri's passion for not just Indian cricket but test cricket as a whole.

I'd imagine if you emailed channel 7 they'd have it, or the Mosey family, it went for probably 5 to 10 minutes.

Australia’s selectors are expect to swing the axe and call up Victorian young gun Will Pucovski, according to a Fairfax report.

The Sydney Morning Herald reports both Shaun and Mitchell Marsh are in the firing line, with neither expected to be named in the squad for the two-Test series against Sri Lanka.

Alongside dropping the Marsh brothers, selectors are also tipped to let go of Aaron Finch, who played the first three Tests against India.

Pucovski, a 20-year-old top-order batsman for Victoria, has only played eight first-class matches but has an average of 49.00, with two centuries and a high score of 243.

A mere two days after suffering its first ever Test series at home to India, Australia will unveil a new squad for the two-match series against Sri Lanka on Wednesday.

Chairman of selectors Trevor Hohns is expected to reveal a bumper squad for this month’s Warne-Muralitharan Trophy, which does not begin until January 24.

On Tuesday we took a look at the contenders for selection. Today we run our eyes over the group of players that took on India, and their own hopes of retention.

Would love to see that, we lived in Robertstown for a couple of years and knew the Mosey's well, my old man played with JL - always remember out on their farm they had a cricket net set up.

Wouldn't read much into the Sri Lankan tour - it's one they'll be expected to win, chance to trial some guys while protecting others from potential failure.

Head or Pucovski or who ever fail in Sri Lanka and you can bet your bottom dollar they'll be moved aside for Marsh x2 to return for the more important Ashes.

Bumper Squad? What does that mean? They'll find some talent? Or they are going to post a group of 18 and wait for public reaction to work out which ones we want in our xi?

Has there ever been a time with more names floating around as possible options?

1) Harris
2) ?
3) Khawaja
4) ?
5) ?
6) ?
7) Paine
8) Cummins
9) ?
10) Lyon
11) Hazlewood

Second Opener
Finch
Renshaw
Bancroft
Burns

#4 & 5
Head
Pucovski
S Marsh
Handscomb
Wade
K Pattinson
Ferguson

All Rounder

Stoinis
Maxwell
Labuschagne
M Marsh

Bowler
Starc
Siddle
J Pattinson
Tremain
Worrall
J Richardson
Boland
Bird

That's 29 names and I wouldn't be overly surprised to see any of them to be honest. And there's probably others that could be added to the list.
