2019 ASHES: 5th Test Australia v England, The Oval Sept 12-16

[Meapro Ham]

Our team should be

Smith
Cummins
Starc
Pattinson
Hazelwood
Lyon
A WK
4 fielders.

Batting

Commence innings at 3/0 and let Smith come in with a runner.
Smith gets out, declare.

Then bowl.

Except for the extra fast bowler, that is our team

 

[Bgoodorgoodatit]

We just couldn't make it through a series without a Marsh getting a token appearance..

and f**king LOL with dropping head, of all the people to drop.. then then you've got Langer out in the media today saying he will be back in the top 6 come the home summer.

 

[Twizzle]

Maybe they figured that Head needed to be rotated for anther derp because we were worried about him getting injured, thats how these guys think.

 

[Twizzle]

its a tad green, maybe they listened to Anderson, seems a bit uneven too

 

[Twizzle]

The all-rounder's elevation, at the expense of Travis Head, is primarily because selectors want to ensure Australia's fast bowlers are given some respite in the Oval series finale.

The all-rounder's elevation

Who's the all rounder? I only see Marsh being added

 

[lockyno1]

I guess the selectors thinking on Marsh is that whatever team they pick there will be 4 shit batsmen so they may as well pick one that can bowl a bit

He averages 44 with the ball...

 

[Raiders_Premiers]

Shitchell Darsh playing international cricket is some kind of cruel, sick, demented joke being played on the Australian public

31 tests averaging 25 with the bat and 44 with the ball. f**k me. An even bigger deadweight for Smith to carry

 

[nöyd]

No problem with Marsh being in the side, hope he puts on 900 for the 4th or 5th wicket with Smith or Labuschagne, and then takes 7 for 30 with the ball, that will really hit home then just how shit England really are.

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Geoff Marsh's semen has ruined Australian cricket for the last 30 years.

 

[Slackboy72]

Who's the all rounder? I only see Marsh being added

What do you call someone who can't bat and can't bowl?

 

[Mr Spock!]

Ken Rutherford would have averaged at least 80 in this era bruh

Quiney might have even averaged mid-20s in this era.....

I remember when the only player in the Englland top 7 that couldnt hit a 100 was Mike Brearley and he was picked for his captaincy nous..

He'd be 2nd bat picked in this England team.

 

[Mr Spock!]

English media now saying Steve Smith isn't a legit bat unless he gets a 300 and 400 in the same game.

off 50 balls....

 

[Mr Spock!]

How England sees Jofra Archer V how Steve Smith sees Jofra Archer...

A little bit of selective state manipulation on my behalf but if minimum of 500 runs over the last 5 years away from home look who has the worst average from players 1-6

The bison

His brother is the second worst

As I recall he’s not great at catching either

 

[Pete Cash]

Plus he looks like some kind of daft bumpkin
