1st Ashes Test: Australia v England at Gabba Brisbane, Nov 23-27 2017

[Timbo]

In Perth Lol.

AND because Mitch Johnson was afraid of the new ball, Shane Wazn opened the bowling.

 

[WaznTheGreat]

[Mr Spock!]

Lol....Marsh picked because they want an opener to face the second new ball.

You've gotta be kidding.....

Nobody actually said that... Surely??

Mark Taylor's interpretation - not the selectors justifying

Poor Warnie must be mortified that his wee champ has been dropped - I can see why Paine is a bit controversial, but guess it came down to Paine, Nevill or Wadey - the latter two have been pretty rank (Nevill with the bat and apparently his verbals, Wadey with the bat and the gloves) - so presumably it was Paine or a wheelie bin?

Warnie is in a bind, given his mate Junior is one of the brains that hasn't followed his wisdom

 

[King hit]

Ahh Andrew McDonald, should have had a 100+ test career for mine

played 4 tests in total all vs South Africa for 3 wins, winning percentage of 75%
His tight bowling (best 3/25) was very very handy, was on the precipice scoring some serious runs too

The allrounder we shoulda coulda woulda had...sniff

Yeah I thought McDonald was respectable at test level. From memory he had a big part in that Sydney win.

England fans : what's that? 1 series win a decade?

Aussie fans : what's that? 4 series wins in 30 years?

0-5 twice in a decade?

How many players bailed mid tour? Mental midgets.

They get stuck in to Mitch Johnson but then when the shoe is on the other foot..

How many return flights booked? To Joburg?
