2nd unofficial Test: Sth Africa A v Australia A at Rustenburg Jul 31-Aug 3, 2013

[TheParraboy]

Starts tomorrow, a day earlier than the 3rd ashes test

Hopefully something in it for the quicks this time around

 

[Twizzle]

any team news ?

 

[TheParraboy]

any minute now


I have a gut feeling Warner wont be there for this one

 

[oldmancraigy]

Warner really HAS to be rushed back to the test team.

We not only need his ability to score runs - we need his niggle. And perhaps he could deck Joe Root again so he can't score any runs?

 

[TheParraboy]

holly molly just got home

7/70

big show 0

 

[TheParraboy]

Maddinson 47*, the only one doing anything

7/70 is the lunch score

 

[TheParraboy]

no dramas Timbo, doesn't matter who starts em, I just have access to a pc and internet most days 24/7 home and work, and love my cricket, especially FC games and tests so like to start them well before they start so we can have some discussion on them

Now, Are we gonna get ourselves out of this mess?

9/115 (Maddinson 62*)

100 run partnership coming up between Maddinson and Cummins??

 

[Helmet Man]

[TheParraboy]

9/130

Maddinson 72*
Cummins 5*

century coming up for Maddo?

 

[TheParraboy]

9/146

Maddo 88*

Going for the ton blasting their best bowler all over the shop

 

[TheParraboy]

all out 146

bad luck there

 

[Timbo]

Did his job.

Batting couldn't have been that difficult if Maddinson could get 88 off 87.

Tells the story about how bad we are right now.

 

[Y2Eel]

Finch marsh doolan and maxwell there is you problem right there. .

 

[lockyno1]

Great to see Maddinson do well- he is the sort of top 3 bat we need in our test side.

 

[8Ball]

And now SA A are 0/91. Australian cricket is killing it atm...

 

[hineyrulz]

lol, and this is the next best we have just lol.

 

[ElectricEelMan]

lol, and this is the next best we have just lol.

No.
This is NOT the next best we have.
I wouldn't call this an Australia A team.
Even this incompetent cricket follower would think/now this.
There is one particular batsmen who shouldn't even be in the first Australia Z team.

How the f*ck Finch got to be in this side boggles this incompetent cricket followers mind? Am I missing something? He has an average of 30 in first class cricket FFS!

 

[Y2Eel]

Also how is Tim Paine in this team

 

[hineyrulz]

No.
This is NOT the next best we have.

You are right, i didn't really look at the team picked it stinks. But Finch is the captain of the side for some reason. But there are 4 test players in that side and 6 internationals. Silk and Burns are better players than Finch or the big Tard. Still terrible showing from some of our best and brightest.

Glad they rested Hazlewood. No point burning him out on this tour.

Good to see Maddinson amongst it, he really is the best young batting prospect coming through. Hoping for a big Shield season from him.
