1st Test: Australia v South Africa at Perth on Nov 3-7, 2016

Saw this on the Cricinfo commentary:

"This is the 21st time Neville has batted in tests, 6 times he has walked out a 5 for <100, and 8 times under 200. Also the 13th out of 19 possible times he has replaced Mitch Marsh at the crease."

Interesting way of saying Neville has been served up a shit sandwich every time he bats.

Bring in Andre Nel for Steyn

Those sorts of stats would have me contemplating retiring from international cricket if I was Nevill... Why would you want to play in such an inept team...

The merkin with all the wickets its their Test and ODI player of the year, and Philander is better than Steyn.

Both bowling way better than Steyn over the past season.

Steyn is an all time great and the spearhead of the attack.

Ricky Ponting is an all-time great too, didn't stop him from declining rapidly towards the end.

Steyn is one of the best fast bowlers ever... he's their man...

Effectively they started without their best player, their second best bat scored 1, they lost a great fast bowler and look like winning a test at the WACA with two quicks, a spinner on debut, and a part-timer - they'll be making a movie about this shit

 

[BestHookerFarrah]

Was, he's not as good as he used to be.

 

[JJ]

No he's not, but he's still bloody good

I'll stick with the opinion of people who don't think robbie Farah is the best hooker on rating anything.

 

[BestHookerFarrah]

Exactly, it was all I was saying. That at this point in time, the other two are better.

Different sports, dumbshit.
