It's funny watching everyone suck Starc off now...a few of us said he would be the best of our young crop of quicks a few years ago and were laughed out of town!
Haha yes I was in the very small minority of people that rated him at the time. Used to cop a bit for it too, but the potential was there for all to see and now he's probably the best quick in the world.

I'm starting to think Smith has nfi.

I don't think he has NFI, I think that he's yet to learn that sometimes plans don't work and you need to adapt. Whether he does or not, time will tell, but he definitely seems to have a clue. Just maybe not as much initiative as he should at times.

Warner going the tonk lol.


So Marsh and Henriques bowled 10 overs between them??? So Henrqiues is playing as a batsman??? They should of given Head a go he can bowl a bit of spin as well.

Warner hit an exciting 11. Shoulda stuck the original plan though. Just a thought.
We have to be the worst team to have been handed the No. 1 tag in the history of cricket.

What a terrible shot, they keep playing back on these decks.

It's got a lot to do with the fact that all they play on now are roads, apart from England (and even then the overhead conditions have more effect than the pitch) and some of the subcontinent wickets (that said, India can prepare a soulless road better than anyone if they want to).

Let's get some life and variety back in the Aussie wickets ffs! This is a good pitch, a little slower but that's all...

I agree with everything you have said, but roads are all we will get due to drop in wickets(f**king Flogball) and the fact that CA and channel Nein gotta have dem 5 day tests.
