Amazing the difference a few boundaries can make. Pakistan have looked behind since Jamal went for those early bikkies

 

[This Year?]

Great chase.

The Bison is having something of a second coming.

Terrific innings. He's finally a test player.

 

[This Year?]

Those big levers finessing the ball through the gaps to bring up the half century.

 

[Twizzle]

50 up for the Bison, my how this game has changed

 

[Nealo 12]

Crowd clapping like it’s a century at lords , has Marsh got Vic heritage or something

 

[Sphagnum]

As much as it pains me to admit it, the Bison has had a big year for his country

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Good work Marsh.

As frustrating a period as it is, usually with a lot of dumb losses, its interesting getting so see who sinks or swims.

Get a good look at the next gun and the next most-hated merkin who gets way more starts than he should.

I reckon the late 20s will be like the early 10s for us. Plenty of players coming in and out of the side, until a few can make it stick. There was a period where the batting line up was Warner, Smith and Clarke with 5-6 others rotating around them. Khawaja who was essentially slated to be a long term Ponting replacement ended up being a very good opener. Smith was moronically selected as a bowling allrounder became an all-timer specialist bat. Wouldn’t be surprise to see some regulars get into roles which now would seem bizarre.

It’s a weird reality when Mitchell Marsh is the backbone of your batting…
