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

[WaznTheGreat]

Nathan Plod has to be the worst bowler ever to reach 200 test wickets

 

[Hutty1986]

worst batting line up in world cricket. This will be done in about 15 overs

Tyson Frizell should bat at 5 for Australia

 

[BestHookerFarrah]

Only we could lose our first wicket chasing a draw with a run out...

Then Darsh pizzad when he should have French fried....

Why would you play for a draw when you have almost 5 sessions to bat and this pitch is a road?

 

[hineyrulz]

None of these muppets are bred by Fastnet Rock that's for sure

Bred by Wazn out of Ourone.

 

[hineyrulz]

Khawaja is lucky that didnt come back in a touch more. he was nowhere near the ball.

Duminy has the ball zipping around. lyon did nothing

A part timer out bowling the GOAT, well i never......

 

[Pete Cash]

We have lost the plot.

No one can be surprised by the pathetic batting, Warner and Smith are the only players in the entire country that average over 50 at first class level, Voges averages like 47 and the next best out of everyone are clumped with 40-41 averages. Given how our bowlers struggle yet keep all but 3 with sub par first class averages says a lot.

Look at Lehmann, Langer, Hussey and co that had to fight to get in or back in to the national team had averages over 50 and match the bowlers they faced to now, says it all about the poor quality in this country, it's just sad no matter who comes in will suck.

Ian Healy just made a rugby league reference. Rare. I am sure the Melbourne Nine AFL coats are scrambling to see what they can do about it.
I am sure I remember Healy once got asked who he supports in the AFL in the commentary and he responded "Ah, I am from Queensland, I support the Broncos". I think he hates AFL as much as I do.

I think Lehmann's son might get a baggy green. Can score big.

 

[hineyrulz]

If MMarsh can get a baggy green anyone can.

 

[Pete Cash]

Haha winviz says we are a 1 percent chancs

SO youre saying there is a chance

 

[hineyrulz]

Win viz is as drunk as our selectors.

 

[mave]

Surely there is another Marsh that is coming through the ranks ?

 

[Fufu Andronez]

Do they have a sister?

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Old Mrs Marsh with the chalk in the Colgate ads would go better.

Correct

These days we just pick on the basis of who scored the last 100 in any format

 

[Fufu Andronez]

Ffs show some fight please, I want to come home from work tomorrow to some test match cricket

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Crucial innings for Oozie. Needs to score a hundred draw or loss. Unless he changes his name to Usman Marsh he'll get the flick if he doesn't score runs when the team needs him.

 

[TheParraboy]

I reckon we are a good chance to give this run chase a shake

Smith and Khawaja will bat into tomorrow, hopefully well after lunch
There is nothing scary in this wicket. Tomorrow morning be cautious and wear them down in this heat

Need Voges to score big and MMarsh to score some runs (30-40 will do from him)
