I've even got appropriate attire organised. Although, I'm never happy in a skirt that's below knee length. Always like to give the boys something.

The ICC are the biggest, most farcical, embarrassing joke of a governing sport organization in the world.
The last few decades have been littered with numerous unsatisfactory and blatantly biased resolutions that required far stronger and more definitive actions to be undertaken.


I'll raise your ICC with ASADA and WADA and go all in!

What was the point of bringing Chadd into the squad. May as well have let Mark Waugh go full retard and bring in Moises and Sean Abbott.

He missed out for Bird, who is from Tasmania. Bird was already ahead of him and with a good record and solid form, he mounts a really strong case. If you want to get upset, be upset about Ferguson getting dropped. Absolutely crazy to drop a guy after one test. Not like he was picked for conditions or as cover for someone. All it will do is send the message that if you get picked you have to perform right away. Awfully hard to bat when you can't think about the next ball or the next run but the 100th run right from the moment you walk out.

Our selectors are just so ordinary it's not funny. This Sayers decision, the dropping of Ferguson, the love of Burns, the almost worshipping of the Marshes it just goes on and on. They clean out half the side in one Test which just screams panic and confirms they had no idea what they're doing.

At this point I'm just starting to tune out anyway.
