2nd Test - Australia v New Zealand Hobart Dec 9 - Dec 13 2011

Hughes gone

Bunniestard strikes again :lol:

 

[some11]

LOL Hughes - never again.

GTFO BunniesMan, you offer nothing but bullshit.

 

[Hallatia]

This is going to be a very, very testing period for the Aussie opening combination here. Hughes is about $1.05 to edge one into the cordon in the first over

almost

Hughes fails miserably again. Nothing short of a 2nd innings 50/100 will ensure his spot for the Indian series, surely. F*cking woeful

 

[Hutty1986]

almost

I obviously didn't give him enough credit :lol:

 

[TheParraboy]

Still a lot in this deck, Kiwis bowl well they could get a lot of wickets this session

4 or 5 down for 100 at stumps IMO

1 down, few more to go

 

[Hallatia]

I obviously didn't give him enough credit :lol:

I actually thought that four in the first over was close

 

[El Diablo]

hotspot really makes those appeals look stupid especially when they don't refer

Why is Hughes suddenly on the chopping block? 88 in RSA, century in Sri Lanka yet Ponting, Haddin, Hussey were allowed years of failings

 

[Hallatia]

Martin has been bowling quite nicely though

is that a serious question :?

because lotsa people don't like his technique

 

[Tom Shines]

Phil Hughes — that will do me. Apparently the bloke that was the future after Simon Katich.

 

[Tonearm Terrorwrist]

is that a serious question :?

So he fails in 3 innings and he's got to go?

 

[Mr Saab]

Katich was basically dropped for this "future". Phil needs to go back to grade cricket and get his confidence back so he can then play shield cricket.

 

[Twizzle]

gee Hughes backlift and grip is terrible, he couldn't play straight if he tried with that grip, his technique looks to be getting worse

this Boult looks a bowler, good pace and swing

 

[Twizzle]

more f**king rain

 

[El Diablo]

So he fails in 3 innings and he's got to go?

3 :crazy:

Would you risk him for a crucial series against a quality side like India? It's not so much the lack of runs as the fact he gets out pretty much the same way every innings

 

[Twizzle]

yeh, I was a Hughes fan but he is just too predictable and doesn't even look like getting runs atm
