2nd Test: Australia v NZ at MCG, Dec 26-30 2019

[JJ]

I'm settling in for three hours of Warne declaration predictions.

Interspersed with baggy green chat

I sent the missus down the local Vietnamese bakery for a pie. Inspired by Santner.

They do a chilli pie though. Not sure Mitch is anywhere near that spicy

 

[mave]

More of that please Head

 

[JJ]

He could be an ancestor of Clarrie Grimmett

Ancestor?

 

[Hutty1986]

Terrific partnership here

 

[JJ]

Blundell, the best Kiwi spinner since Santner.

Blundell is a keeper

Seriously appallingly selected squad

 

[typicalfan]

Bossing the game?

 

[simmo1]

Really?? He hasn’t even faced a ball yet... he must be some player...

Edit - actually I re-read it... you meant Wicket Keeper... God I’m geniused...

 

[Bazal]

Really?? He hasn’t even faced a ball yet... he must be some player...

I feel like it was more a criticism of balance...?

 

[shiznit]

I feel like it was more a criticism of balance...?

no I actually thought he was saying he was a ‘keeper’ as in he was worth keeping in the squad... like he was a special batsman.

but I think he meant an actual wicket keeper...

 

[Bazal]

Oh...lol.

Yeah he is a wicket keeper, isn't he? Also never opened before?

 

[typicalfan]

He might also be a keeper, I mean if Santner can get a game...

 

[Fufu Andronez]

The Sun should be investigating Williamson for match fixing.

As soon as he won the toss and decided to bowl (at the MCG no less) he effectively threw the game away.

Dorky decision, show some confidence in your batters

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Poor old Santner absolutely copping it.

 

[Fufu Andronez]

Maybe we need to bring India back here every summer. Looks like the only chance of getting some competitive test cricket at the minute

 

[shiznit]

Oh...lol.

Yeah he is a wicket keeper, isn't he? Also never opened before?

Wow... all news to me... but then again...

 

[hineyrulz]

lol Ian Smith talking up Wagner again.

 

[Fufu Andronez]

lol Ian Smith talking up Wagner again.

They talking about his "engine" again?

 

[JJ]

Can we add that 2/20 now???
