Lol fair score that. Aust made a decent enough start

I'm over there/here on holiday, good time for Aussies to have some embarrassing losses as nobody seems to care given the World Cup (the proper one) has started. Once the Poms crash out of that they might look at the cricket

That side we picked. Forget being without Smith and Wanker, the whole side is off kilter.

Short - don't believe the hype, 1 good big wank and he's an Australian opener? Get f**ked.

Head - hasn't taken his chance.

SMarsh - how the f**k is this gumby in the team

Stoinis - how the f**k is this guy batting 4? Way too high.

Finch - so, if you're inconsistent as an opener and can't field then we'll put you at 5 and that will solve everything. Get f**ked.

Maxwell - not sure. Should be able to float around the order.

Paine - paine is not a good enough batsman to play this format. If they're selecting him because he's captain that's stupidity, at least bat him at 9 then.

Agar - get f**ked. The merkin isn't a spinner, isn't a batsman, he's got nothing.

The bowlers have been affected by our big 3 being injured, however, Kane Richardson is shit. He was shit the night of his debut when he was barred from bowling and he's shit now. Tye was always going to be worked out by international teams.

We're ranked 6th in the world atm. We've got as much chance of winning the world cup next year as Iceland.

This slide is 3 years in the making. New players hyped on BBL just not stepping up. Guys like AJ Tye not working as advertised.
These guys aren't filling the void left by Mick Lewis and Clint McKay let alone Starc and Hazlewood.
Don't have a whole lot of choice other than to throw them back to the lions.

Same old same old. Poms get to bat on a flat belter then proceed to smack our attack to all parts. Third time Paine has put them in and third time we have been belted. Pommies know these conditions like an old friend. Come our time to bat and their dual spinners proceed to cut a swathe thru our batting. Only blokes showing any capability against spin are Agar, Maxwell and Marsh. Stoinis is on the improve. Dont expect much more from Maxie.. he has already had his one decent score in six.

This is worrying sign given the WC is here on Pommie shores in less than a year.

How the hell is Short in this side. All this BBL hype and what has he done in this format? As our only wristie he should be taking vital wickets as their Rashid does. As an opening bat he should be getting the side off to a flyer as he is only a hitter and these are hitting decks. He is doing neither.
