I Dont' Like Cricket, Oh No, I Love it, Yeah

They were talking about it in commentary like it was no big thing, his arm moves in a slinging action.

But don't worry, India owns cricket so they will play it fair with their captain.

I mean you couldn't tell the comms team had fat contracts in India on the line during the call.

Either way as a thunder supporter it’s enjoyable. I would rather him have a baggy green than being the lime green.

His action is legit, was looked at few years ago and no problem within the guidelines of hypermobility

Been many bowlers with slinging action over the years , including some aussies,

Konstas should be opening and McSweeney First drop.


IMO no way

Konstas is far from ready, mind boggling a kid basically played FA first class cricket and people want him to open in test cricket. This ton he scored tonight isnt a sanctioned international, lot of lax rules, India missing Bumrah, zero pressure.

What should have happened , Smith should have stayed at opener and McSweeney at 4, where he has played most of his career. Inglis is part of the test squad, and could play as a batsman in the middle order

So another year or two at the Blues racking up the numbers, while staring for the Lime Green before he gets his test cap at 21 ?

yep

McSweeney was consistent last year and was probably next in line, although he didn't have much competition pushing him

Konstas probably needs at least a year in first class cricket. He will be a player this kid, he just needs to mature and get more consistent for mine.
