Stayed in. Just needs to walk away from white ball crap

..couldn't see ball in outfield other day too..

It's clear they want Green back in the team.

If smudge wants to move up then I suppose it's solves a few problems for the short term.

Trav goes to 4, Bison to 5 and Green to 6.

And it keeps spuds like Bancroft and Harris anywhere near the Baggy Green.

They keep talking about picking the 6 best batters, which to me says they want Green back in. I think he is viewed as the long term replacement for Smith at 4.

I am sure Green could do an OK job as an opener, but it's a big ask. He has been shuffled around the order the past 12 months and it can't be helping him find a rhythm.

.. he's only batted at 6 or 7

He has batted up the order in white ball cricket too (some of which is IPL). I thought he batted 8 in the Ashes, but you are right, he was 7 but crazily picked as as a specialist bowler.

4 or 5 is his spot IMO. Probs 4...I still think Trav is a tailor made 6 but he's done so well at five you wouldn't shift him.

He bats 4 for WA. I agree that I wouldn't be shifting him all over the order. Pick him in a role and stick with it. I don't like the idea of him opening, but I also don't like most of the actually openers

Not since AntiLag has there been such a waste of space in the cricket forum

Thank God. It was really affecting my ability to function.

Kill me now.

Hope these 2 get busy once they get their eyes back in

Marnus being 27 off 73 is getting in Geoff Boycott territory , and Smith seems to get into the 30's quick , then goes into his shell for some reason

Got to 50 in Melbourne and then basically turned into a corpse

In the immortal words of the great poet, Kurt Cobain,

" Here we are now, entertain us
I feel stupid and contagious
Here we are now, entertain us
A mulatto, an albino
A mosquito, my libido, yeah
Hey
Yeah "

See now Isa and Gilly have resorted to talking about chicks undies

 

[Fangs]

Davey's powers return.

Though it's more likely he will get a bowl than a bat at this stage. Must have been a while since he rolled the arm over.
