Thought the same and we know how the some of the Aussie batsman go in the sub continent when there's turn.

Our spinners have done well to hold SL and keep run rate from going up.

Swepson has for a fair boundaries but he's bowled ok, unfortunately Carey dropped an edge off him just before.

Just a thought as I don't know much about the system...

Has DRS been updated or recalibrated in recent years???

Obvious when DLS came out teams were looking to and capable of scoring a run a ball of the last ten overs to win a game, these days that figure is much higher and teams are willing to allow the run rate to blow out to 7-8 runs an over and still comfortably win a game. Does the current version of DLS take this into account.

Also good to see Philleppe in the runs for Australia A...…...for mine his the best batting keeper in the country by a mile who could genuinely be a top five batsmen.

Yes, side strain while batting in the first ODI. Has a history of side strains.

94 and 69 in the match, I take note of his scores so it's good to see him making red ball runs and looks to be improving nicely.

He's probably not that far off if Lyon and/or Swepson become unavailable which shows the lack of spinner depth Australia has at the moment.

No idea. I’d say he was sitting at the pointy end. I wasn’t.

I had the privilege of getting to know his sister Sophie while my son was stuck in the Gold Coast Hospital, wasn’t hard to work out why she was his favourite nurse.

Am I missing something?

Travis Head was tearing the Paki's a new one in the ODI's not long ago and now he finds himself in the lower/middle order?

Labuschagne is not an ODI player, CA is just denying someone else a chance to wear the yellow pyjamas.

We obviously have no real care about this series, we're not going to win many games with that bowling line up.

That's pretty standard for us isn't it....we normally play rubbish teams and try 100 players for 3 years and then the year of the world cup we actually get serious.

Didn't he open the batting for Aus A and hit a 100 as well last week?
