Morris will have a minor role donning a Fluro bib and carrying drinks.

@Parraboy you wanna add this to a AUSSIE V SA Test Series thread.

CA XI squad: Peter Handscomb (c, Vic), Sam Whiteman (WA), Henry Hunt (SA), Tim Ward (Tas), Teague Wyllie (WA), Campbell Kellaway (Vic), Matthew Kuhnemann (Qld), Jake Doran (Tas), Jack Clayton (Qld), Lawrence Neil-Smith (Tas), Chris Tremain (NSW), Jordan Buckingham (SA), Liam Hatcher (NSW)

If the game is televised vs Proteas probably worth doing a seperate game day thread tbh

If not and not a lot of interest, then the cricket crap thread is ok to chat about it

.....and dont forget to source, takes a second

Handscomb, young guns headline CA XI | cricket.com.au

Vics skipper to lead Cricket Australia side against South Africans in Brisbane next week, with…

Would be pretty unfair to not give Boland the first crack considering how well he did last summer.

I love this stat. Bonus love because it concerns a player called Lance.

Mitchell Starc has dismissed both Shivnarine and Tagnarine Chanderpaul in test cricket.

The only other players who have dismissed a father and son combo are Ian Botham and Wasim Akram who both dismissed Lance and Chris Cairns.

Windies don't have many Feathers to ruffle

Fresh injury concerns for reeling West Indies ahead of second Test

The West Indies tour of Australia has hit another snag, with further injuries striking the tourists.

Windies sure are losing their feathers. Is this the Windies bosses trying to save face to appease those fans in the Caribbean over their underwhelming bowling performance in Perth. Seales, specially with his 5 an over display after coming into the series with hype as the next big thing in Windies bowling.
For mine Mayers and Holder were the only bowlers to escape the match with reputation unscathed..

Happy Cummins has been rested. Bigger tests to come. Scotty deserves a spot after last summer.

Can't believe the young tearaway feather ruffler Vance Hollis has been overlooked.

 

[Bazal]

This is disgusting. Linus Morrissey should have been straight in to knock the hair off a few more balding Windians

 

[Fangs]

I'd sack baldy for another pacer. Head was doing enough with it in Perth anyway and its not an important test.

Starc and Hazelwood could probably use the overs and its a perfect test to try some new bowlers.

Labelling someone the wild thing isn't automatically making them intimidating. The previous wild thing wasn't that crash hot except for his speed.

I don't remember Tait being accurate. Struggled to bowl long spells even in 50 over matches. Had serious pace but I can't recall him being that great apart from that.
