Tend to agree.

His 30 was still crucial though. He came in when the score was 62 and left at 174. Had we had any other player outside the XI playing instead of Smith last night, we would have lost.
Leave the team the same. It is clearly the best XI. Green is out of form unfortunately. Stoinis will never stand up in a big game. Abbott and Carey are just spares.
Bat first and hope 2 of Warner/Head/Marsh get going and we're a big chance.
India have dominated everything before them and go in massive favourites, but this Aussie team seems to find a way.

Australia to bat first make 0/1000[50]
India to bat second and make zero [1.4]
Should India bat first they will make zero , Australia would need 1 ball to win the World Cup

Geez I was excited when in his 2nd ODI for Aust he belted the Kiwis all over the park, 146 off not many. He also took 3 fa that game. The future was bright.
Since then, he's appeared another 68 times for Australia. Never taken a 3 fa, and never made a 100 since.
Infact, since April 2019, so the last 4 & 1/2 years, he hasn't made a 50.
You need to roll back some 45 matches to find the last time he raised the bat.
In his last 44 matches, he's averaged 17.38 with the bat and 40.07 with the ball.
Unfortunately that glimpse we saw back in 2017 never returned.

Great stuff Trader, he's continually picked on potential the last four years amd a half year and success is clearly not happening for him.
I've mentioned his weakness against spin on here before, Stoinis averages 17 against left arm spin and 18.40 against all spin, career average is 27.03.
All good mate, I was listening to Jarrod Kimbers daily World Cup podcast earlier and the question was asked to him about how Stoinis had remained in the team despite not performing as shown in the stats Trader posted. His answer was based around Australia have had a lack of pace bowling allrounder options to select over him (Marsh not being available/being able to bowl, Green only recently debuting in team/not initially performing that well to be selected over Stoinis). With Stoinis being 34 Australia might now look past him heading towards to next ODI World Cup cycle and guys like Green and Hardie will be preferred.Lightning McQueen wrote:The Dark Knight wrote:Trader wrote:The Rig, Marcus Stoinis.

Yes, I will crawl back under my rock.
