David Warner

Pomers will be back!!!

Warner looks a lot better just trying to smash the crap out of it. I think he is our Afridi, not so good blocking so may as well have a smash.

 

[Twizzle]

Obviously... but the way people on here were carrying on, you would have thought he's the new Gilchrist.

His strike rate is better than Gilly's was at that stage of his career, he's generally around 150 to 200 where as Gily was around 100.

Not a good technique and probably not a test player.

He clears the front leg towards mid wicket for just about every shot, that makes him a good hitter but not a very good defender which he'll need to work on in his 4 day game.

Apart from today Marsh hasn't been in very good form.

In ODI cricket he has the form for Australia. The selectors will pick him and rightly so.

 

[hineyrulz]

Marsh and Sunshine should be the ODI openers.

 

[lockyno1]

Exactly and they will be and no tripe by some Victorian will prove it otherwise. They picked Symonds despite being in s..t form.

Agreed and hopefully in time will develope into a test player.

 

[Twizzle]

should be in our ODI squad now

showed last night he can compete at international level

One thing that struck me about his running was his turning. He is very quick but is slow to turn, so was often struggling when running twos.

A bit of time at this elvel should get that sorted ASAP.

When you can hit it that far, who gives a f**k about running?

 

[Bigfella]

I think that might be part of the problem!

Yeah, especially with Hussey etc. being able to push the gap to run alot of twos. If he impresses in the next Twenty20 I would love to see him have a crack in the ODI's, it'd be interesting to see how he handles it.

 

[aussies1st]

Perfect replacement for Gilly so get him into the ODI side asap.

 

[saint-colesy]

Great up and cummer, NOW please dont let him go stale, Blood him in the Australian team now, we need new Blood

hehehehehe

 

[roopy]

Any game he scores 50 in we should win - and if he fails in twenty 20 it doesn't really matter.
He is perfect for twenty20 - and might be OK in one dayers.

I'd like to see him working on his game with the aussie coaches because anyone who can deliberatey cut a 150klm per hr delivery over the slips for 6 has an eye like Mark Waugh or Adam Gilchrist, and some serious coaching could turn him into anything.

Very true Roopy. I heard something one day that when Jayasuriya scores a 30+ score Sri Lanka win over 80% of matches.

 

[hineyrulz]

He could be anything, but i hope they just don't pidgeon hole him into just a 20/20 slogger. He plays good cricket shots as well, has to get a go for the Blues at Sheild Level soon.

 

[Hanscholo]

Cant believe they are refusing to add him to the one day squad. That knock against tassie was just as amazing as his innings last night in Melb. I dont recall ever seeing a player pick up the ball so well.

 

[beads6]

Warner was unreal last night and he surely deserves a spot in the one day squad.. We are in need of a big hiting opener like Gilly and we have found him in David Warner. I hope he can be consistent he is great to watch

 

[mozza91]

Stop comparing Warner to Gilly he is a cowboy who has proven nothing but he can play this 20/20 rubbish
