Australian International Summer 2020/21

[Armchair expert]

This is the worst bowling line up that has ever represented Australia in any format.

This is the worst bowling line up that has ever represented Australia in any format.

Performances in Big Bash dont stack up, who wouldve thought. Alot of very ordinary cricketers get around in the Big Bash.
Tye, Sams, Moses, Stoinis and Abbot, never again please

[Armchair expert]

Sams is actually trash, its embarrassing to Australian cricket that he is getting wickets

I said this back in February and I stand by it 100%



AJ Tye 10000 variations of how the ball can be hit to the fence

[daysofourlives]

Tell ya what, its pretty hard to hit yorkers over mid wicket for 6, Muppets

The pace guys tonight would not be in our best ten bowlers, so no surprise they went for nearly 200 really

Agree.
All these bullshit variation balls they try and don’t work.
The good Ol’ Yorker is still the hardest to hit.

I’m seriously thinking about making a comeback looking at tonight’s team......sheesh, pick some names out of a hat was it?

Wade Captain, thats a joke in itself, his heads bloody big enough as it is

Doing okay so far!

Wade wasn't my issue, I don't like the guy but he deserves the opener/keeper spot more than Carey, as for captaincy, when you chop and change a team so much you can't really pencil anything in and the keeper is in the best spot on the ground to make moves at the right time, so it made sense.

Carey would be ruing a bit though, he had the VC next to his name for some time, he would've been captaining his nation.

Bringing Tye back into the fray and then adding Sams when we were already looking vulnerable with the ball with no world class bowlers at all in the side.

A bit of a childish "Sucked in CA" from me for losing the #1 ranking, to think you can just play any hack and still be the best reeks of arrogance.

[Dinglinga75]

Its almost they treat these games as pre season games and see how players react on the big stage .. Then get a settled World Cup line up

Probably doesn't help have a congested schedule with limited preparation with multiple players quarantined which might explain some of the soft tissue injuries.

The major prize at the moment is the Test Series ....

I'll try to bowl the same ball three times in a row (wide yorker) but I'll only land one (19th over) - 2 fours in three balls

At least Sams tried to vary his line and length in the last.

So people are actually upset that we choose a Mickey Mouse team to play a Mickey Mouse format?
Could not care less if we never won another T20 game TBH

I wouldn't call it "upset", but if there's a competition and it involves our national team I'd like to see the spots on that team earnt.

CA doesn't share your view, they want to win everything but I think they reek of arrogance.

At the end of the day, like it or not, T20 is the new pyjama cricket, it's bringing people in, it's attracting a new crowd and it's here to stay, the games are the right length for many marketing reasons.

I lost my passion for cricket as a whole a few years back and it hasn't come back to me, I watch it if it's on but I don't structure my life around it like I used to.

Aust A Vs India

The bat-off is a fizzer - Pucovski gone for 1 - shelled it to point.

[Senor Moto Gadili]

Pucovski out for just one ..... smashed one to point. Pretty lazy. You can't be giving your wicket away at this level. Now Burns nicks one for 4.

The four openers in this match scored 5 runs between them

Good signs for when they have to face the pink ball under lights!!

[stampy]

when was the last time these guys had a hit?, shitty programming if you ask me

[The Dark Knight]

In the last round of Sheffield Shield matches, 8th- 11th if November.

Aus A 3/60 at lunch
Harris 33*
Head 18

[Armchair expert]

There is no way Burns can play first test, he can't even leave the ball without getting a glove on it

[Jim05]

That was terrible from Trav, right on lunch

[Eagles2014]

That was terrible from Trav, right on lunch

Are you really surprised?? He does it over and over again, or gets out straight after a break in play. Dumb cricketer old Trav!

[Corona Man]

Aust A now 5/98...... its like none of these batters want to play for Australia.
