Probably the most underwhelming summer of test cricket we have ever had.

If it wasn't for a couple of young tourists having a bright start to their careers it would be an even more dire summer.


Wait for the SACA to raise membership fees in 2024/25. :roll:


Should be giving half back in a refund!

Although Peter Maliauskas has been vocal about it still means jacksh*t to CA


Don’t let the truth get in the way of a good story

CAs preference was for us to have next weeks test D/N starting on a Thursday over Australia Day

Our Govt said no.

This test this time is all Mali’s fault. My source is very very good.

I also find it funny that my lad's cricket was called off for this weekend due to the test. He plays Sunday afternoon. Wishful thinking by CA and the SACA perhaps?

Allegedly…

This decision was made at time when the Voice polls were saying yes, the state government was planning state based voice legislation and the 1st Australia Day after the voice was seen as not a good look.

We wanted the 1st test v Pakistan and that was going to Perth we were offered next week and went woke.

IF you are right
Should we re-start this Test this afternoon ?
We can call it Test match 1B
That way we get a 3 Test series

If only Renshaw hadn't left the test squad early ....

Did make mention in an earlier post prior to the test starting , if the WI would bowl many NoBalls - 13 in Total
