Re: Australian International Summer
Daydreaming this afternoon and I came up with a brilliant idea
Cricket Australia find half a dozen spinners who aren't going to play Test Cricket but decent enough....pay them to be net bowlers ,develop illegal actions who cares its only the nets.
Too many traditional spinning actions in Australian cricket

If you want to go quickly, go alone.
If you want to go far, go together.

Re: Australian International Summer
I must have been dreaming about our batting performances against Pakistan
Selector Tony Dodemaide says Australia’s settled T20 top order has performed well, but veteran Steve Smith remains in contention as a replacement if needed.
WTF

Re: Australian International Summer
A crossover conversation with the gambling thread, but Paki's were 2.50 for the second game and 2.20 for the third. Am I the only one not seeing how bad we are?locky801 wrote:I must have been dreaming about our batting performances against Pakistan

Re: Australian International Summer
Some interesting changes with the key one being that the final over of the day must be completed.
Currently if a wicket falls in the last over of the day stumps are called but the new rules would mean a new batsman would need to come out and face the music

I think that is a good change. Same as the laminated bat at domestic level.Jim05 wrote:Some interesting changes with the key one being that the final over of the day must be completed.

However, what the hell are they on about with the other rules? If the bat hits the wicketkeeper and it hits the stumps it's not out? Was this ever a problem? Assume it was...
And overthrows aren't overthrows if a fielder passes it to another on the boundary? "whether an attempt to stop the ball or pass it to another fielder close to the boundary - should not be treated as an overthrow."
Pardon?

Re: Australian International Summer
Surprise, Surprise
Hazelwood ruled out of entire World Cup schedule, wish i was as certain on powerball numbers as i was of that call
Speaking of the World Cup, last nights warm up against the Netherlands, guess what, washed out without a ball being bowled

Re: Australian International Summer
Was watching the U19 WC final and geez that 14yo kid just went absolutely nuts!
Ended up making 175 but he was dispatching them to all parts. I can see how as 14yo he made a ton in the IPL

Finished at 9/411, surely England can't chase it?
