2nd Test: Australia v Sri Lanka at Manuka Oval (Canberra) Feb 1-5 2019 - AUSTRALIA WON BY 366 RUNS

[Timbo]

Maxwell at least has a test century to his name.

Hopefully Head and KP keep playing well and save us from having to scrape that deep into the barrel that Stoinis starts to look viable.

Stoinis is definitely going on the Ashes tour because there will endless prattle about how you may need four seamers in England, and Lyon isn’t getting dropped.

I think Wade goes as both the backup batsman and backup keeper.

I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s the current top 6, with Smith and Warner in for Harris and Labuschagne with the above two as the backups for the Ashes.

 

[hineyrulz]

He’s on 99, time to call them in.

 

[some11]

Declaration time.

 

[Timbo]

Why on Earth did Head run that third there.

You're probably right, but unless Stoinis takes a bag full of Shield wickets, I don't see how it's justified.

Selectors using cheap BBL wickets as some kind of justification is about par for the course though.

100 for Oozie.


Hopefully he repays Paines faith in England.

 

[King hit]

Wonderful innings

Maybe my meeting with him last Saturday inspired him

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Adequately played Oozie - only 11 innings too late merkin.

Lol, celebrating like he's brought up his triple hundred against Wasim, Curtley, John Snow and Warne.

 

[Bazal]

It's raining Aussie tonnes

 

[hineyrulz]

Why are they still batting????

Harsh on the latter. Clearly a big weight off

 

[jargan83]

Uzi probably saved his career with that

lol, reminds me the Eels when we scored the last try against Manly once after they scored 40 points against us on one half.

We're about to get very wet, that mught factor in

True, the whole team did carry Finch for most of the summer

 

[Hutty1986]

He's failed all summer when we needed a leader against India and the poms will decimate him in their backyard. Ok knock today though. Just several tests too late. Time to knock them over boys

Surely you’ve been drinking all day Baz???
