GABBA 2nd Test: Australia v India Dec 17-21, 2014

[Meth]

I remember Haddin scoring a great century about this time last year. Clubbed Swann and Panesar from memory

 

[8Ball]

Sharma getting a fair bit of movement now.

 

[tomdl]

That looked out

 

[BunniesMan]

Mitchell Marsh has a place at test level but not in the top 6.

 

[8Ball]

Haddin's had a fair bit of trouble with the ball moving in ever since Steyn got him twice earlier this year.

 

[BunniesMan]

My gut told me that lbw was out but DRS wouldn't have overturned it. Less black and white than I thought.

6 specialist batsmen
1 wicket keeper
4 specialist bowlers
0 All-rounders

Marsh not good enough to play as a batsmen or a bowler

 

[BunniesMan]

6 specialist batsmen

0 All-rounders

Marsh not good enough to play as a batsmen or a bowler.

If you have a keeper that can average 40 he can be your number 6 and then your all rounder is at 7.

Haddin is due for a good score, he will buckle down and get it this dig

Im thinking a good 70 or 80, possibly century

We should be ahead come tea time

 

[Bgoodorgoodatit]

do we even have 6 specialist batsmen good enough for test cricket in this country?

of death.

 

[8Ball]

I don't understand the constant need to change the team. This is very close to the best team we can put on the table. We just don't have the same quality of players anymore. People need to get used to it.

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Mitchell Marsh has a place at test level but not in the top 6.

:lol: where would you like to play him. He's a batting all rounder. He either bats in the top 6 or he doesn't play at all.

People also have to get used to the age old fact that people on occasion fail and it takes time to establish yourself in the test arena. Unless you consistently fail ala Vegieman or Twatson you don't change a side willy f**king nilly.

:lol: This is more correct

Exactly. Watson is the only one who needs to go. Been a lock for f**king ever. Given fifteen billion chances, and has 2 centuries.

Mitch Marsh isn't a top 6 bat at Test level in fact he is barely a top 6 bat at Shield level.

The selectors need to get over their infatuation of having an all rounder that they're had since 2005 when Flintoff tore us a new one.

 

[Twatface Magee]

Time to get rid of Haddin.
Get Nevill in there for the boxing day Test.
