I know we're playing the Blind School, but isn't it amazing what happens when you pick guys who are in form and average over 40 in FC cricket...

Deja vu. Who else isn't shocked.

Richardson’s bowling isn’t much better.
We are nothing without Cummins.

Well that’s one way to get the next batter in. Karunaratne stretchered off after copping a Cummins short ball

Chandimal is a decent bat, captaincy does not agree with him. He was awful when we were batting and I reckon it's affecting his batting.

Good to see Starc bowling flat out. Would be feeling a bit better about life after that last spell.

Will be interesting to see what we do for the Ashes when we have Hazlewood back with Richardson, Cummins and Starc to choose from.

Still averages 42.2 as captain and 42.3 as non captain so no difference there. Averaged 35.23 in 2016 which was before he became captain, 45.59 in 2017 and 40.72 in 2018 and has now made 20 runs in 3 innings.
