1st Test: West Indies v Australia at Roseau on Jun 3-7, 2015

[Bazal]

Watto's frame of mind was all wrong, but again I think it's a lot to do with not having test cricket in 6 months. And I say that as a major detractor of Shane Watson.

We'll be sweet when we settle. And our attack will get us home in this game despite that.

 

[8Ball]

Bishoo has bowled pretty well it must be said, assisted by a pitch which is very spin friendly.

 

[Bazal]

He's bowled fine, but he has been assisted by some poor shots.

 

[8Ball]

Thats a cracker to Haddin.

 

[Bazal]

That was unplayable for a new batsman. Great ball

 

[WaznTheGreat]

This is where we need the great Matt Wade to rescue us again like he did last time againt the Windies

 

[Timbo]

That was unplayable to Haddin. Bishoo is bowling very, very well.

 

[lockyno1]

Still want to drop Voges, Timbo? The only bloke not playing like a drunk!

 

[Rabbits20]

Top order is a shambles, if it were me Voges would be a lock until after the Ashes. wLook at our batting side...

Warner- poor last time, can he face a swinging ball?
Rogers- one last series...but is he in form?
Smith- can be nicky early and still new at number 3
Clarke- Class bat
S.Marsh- useless hack that comes off 1 in 5.
Twatson- he was good...5 years ago.

So look at that list...we have a Class bat in Clarke...Warner with questions, and Smith despite his form with questions in England.

That is the reason Voges is picked guys.

I agree with you mate. Good points you have made.

Voges needs to be at no.5 for the Ashes.

 

[Rabbits20]

Hopefully Johnson can hang in there and give support to Voges.

I would be good to get to 200 from here.

 

[lockyno1]

I agree with you mate. Good points you have made.

Voges needs to be at no.5 for the Ashes.

Honestly would rather him at number 3 with Smith at 4, Clarke at 5 but at least he is in the side. We need him there, and play M.Marsh at 6, Watson is done.

 

[Bazal]

I hate to ssay it, but Watson is still a better bat than M. Marsh.

Yes I feel dirty.

 

[Timbo]

Still want to drop Voges, Timbo? The only bloke not playing like a drunk!

Yes.

I never said he'd do a bad job. But the fact is if Rogers didn't get concussed he wouldn't even be in the XI. Burns should be there as the backup.

 

[Mr Angry]

Yet both continue over many tests to fail..

20/twenty shyte.

Interesting....or is that tricks they play?

Is that sign there?

Once again we have been shown up on a pitch taking big turn, the leggie has bowled well but FMD some of those shots. We want a decent lead having to bat last on this deck.

How Watson is still anywhere near the test side is beyond me.

 

[Rabbits20]

Shaun Marsh needs to start performing, he's disappointed me when he has got chances.

Personally I prefer Voges being in the test team compared with Marsh.

We could get a good 2 years out of Voges before he retires.

 

[hineyrulz]

Good 50 by Voges, pitch is really starting to play tricks.

An 80 run lead could be enough.

 

[hineyrulz]

Johnston goes for a handy 20.


Lead is now 30.

 

[hineyrulz]

Dreadful review.
