Brayshaw angling for a gig in India.

They're 125 behind, he's acting like They're way on top.

 

[Chins get the wins]

Come on guys we need to be bowling tonight. At least an hour

 

[Bazal]

It's completely true. The space for 3 formats simply doesn't exist

Yet England manages four...?
The space is there. The care factor isn't from the organisation. Plain and simple

Is Franger calling Ponting 'Punt' or 'merkin'?

Once we see off the new ball the mindset will change. Head will give us relief.

I'd rather lose trying to win the game than be cowards

The dumbmerkin administration not caring is obviously a massive issue on its own.
The game was far better off with only 2 formats. Lets get back to that

Agree. We can't let this drift like yesterday.. I know we'll get a 300+ lead but the only question that remains is can we bowl them out in under 4 sessions?

They also have 3x as many people. Give us 60m people and the cricket landscape changes

Look at the FC averages and who is a better option? That is the problem gone are the days of going to play county cricket in the winter and piling up hundreds to be near selection

Renshaw was treated disgracefully IMO, when he was finally brought back it was in the middle order. Last year against weak opposition it was the chance to blood some youth. Instead they get thrown in against the best quick in the world. Pure genius!!

Need a blue bagger like a Greg Mail

Balmain club legend.

Depends on Starc's fitness. No one in this side hasn't had a decent record in short form cricket.

Scoring at 4 an over to have a 350 run lead something in the last session is able to be done.

The problem is we are scared to lose so make it so the opposition can't win

Give the merkin a one way ticket to India. He can take Hayden, Langer, Flem and Howie with him.

It's a funny game.
With the 2nd new ball and overcast conditions our bowlers got barely any movement.
Today under the sun Bumrah and Deep have the ball veering around like a drunk driver.

It's like watching the dash cam footage of Ezra Ma'am.

 

[simmo1]

Dead pitch. Nothing for bowlers or batters.

 

[Chins get the wins]

Labs throw the bat mate. You aren't any more likely to get out

Harris, Patterson the same. These are guys who are perfect for test cricket and not for short form.

CA doesn't allow players like that to play OS while the BBL is on. They should be encouraged to do so or even more so. Have an Aust A tour going at the same time for these guys there is no forward planning

Marcus Harris was given more chances than a game of Monopoly, when he defends his bat is more angled than an Ezra Ma'am parked car after a day on the Nose Beers.

I wouldn't pick him but he was picked in the A team on the back of averaging 30 in Shield.

Konstas had some sort of injury. Khawaja is approaching 40, If he is the next up then he needs FC cricket

Instead he is watching the Renegades play from the bench. That is the issue right there

The main issue is there is no FC cricket while the tests are on, just start the f**king big bash after the 5th f**king test. Instead they make the Big Beat off the priority and we are shocked we can't produce batsman.


This looks dead unless he has hit it.
