What the actual f**k is Darsh doing in first slip?

 

[_snafu_]

Why is Marsh in this team?

 

[hineyrulz]

Someone shoot Darsh.

Helps wadey lick the windows

 

[Bazal]

I think we need to get Faulkner back on. He's the key on this wicket I reckon. It's a pitch that will help bowlers with variation

Only10 keepers have averaged above 40 in test cricket while keeping at the same time (20 game minimum)

Only 2 of them came before Gilchrist (Flower, Ames) and one around the same time (Sanga). Needless to say Gilchrist caused an evolution that other countries have been trying hard to emulate since.

 

[Bazal]

That'll help though, great delivery. Hope it stays out but looks like nothing

The ultimate stat that proves my f**king point. It is pretty rare.

Dhoni isn't one of the ten

 

[KeepingTheFaith]

Um Ok.TBH I just caught the back end of the convo and have no idea what the topic actually is other than test keepers and averages. lol

 

[KeepingTheFaith]

Dhoni isn't one of the ten

Correct

He's 11th with an average of 38 and there's not another keeper with 20 games min who averages over 35.

 

[Sphagnum]

Correct

He's 11th with an average of 38 and there's not another keeper with 20 games min who averages over 35.

So he was the worst of the best. Gotcha

 

[Tommy Smith]

Did Davey miss the stumps? Fancy that!

There could be 100 stumps and he'd miss the lot.

 

[Bazal]

Someone really needs to teach The Package to fking throw

2 or 3 balls ago Healy called for Hazelwood to pitch it up a little to tempt the drive and now says not to tempt the drive after he gets hit for 6.

FMD.

A six that just clears a rope that is about 5-10 metres in front of where the old fence used to be....

Sums up cricket today in a nutshell

In fairness I think he said the former for Asad Shafiq and the latter for Malik.

Still a dribbler of course

 

[jargan83]

Going down leg

 

[Bazal]

Bit.high too I'd say. Desperate review really
