Usman is in an absolute purple patch. Might not last forever but they should be picking him now while he's on fire

Agreed, he'll probably be picked when he's out of form :lol:

 

[Barry O'Speedwagon]

Apologies in advance.

I heard that they didn't like picking a Muslim when he's in explosive form.

More seriously, I think it comes down to Finch's form. If he doesn't perform in the T20s he'll be sent to further develop his beer gut. Watto comes in at the moment b/c he can bowl and bat, and we basically don't have a better allrounder for that the T20 purpose.

One of your best Parra Pete O'Speedwagon.

Does Wato even bowl in the big bash ?

He's down to abaout 120ks now

Yes, and he was bowling 135ks the other night. He has bowled 25 overs in the 9 games he has played, 7 wickets at 30. He has also scored 229 of 171 balls. So solid enough as an allrounder.

 

[Twizzle]

playing for an IPL contract me thinks

how's he been going ?

As much as I love cricket I cant watch that comedy carnival

 

[Bigfella]

Watson hasn't really scored big runs but he's looked good (surprise surprise) and his bowling has been very good.

He's a smart cricketer and f**k he has some talent. Still gets out at the worst possible time or when he finally looks set to score a big one.

 

[Bigfella]

The real talent in the comp is travis head. Has played some unbelievable knocks and has literally all the shots.

If he can put it together in the long form it would be massive for us.

Although I've never seen anyone in better touch than oozie the other night. Gone to the next level this year hopefully he can maintain it like smith has. They couldn't bowl anything to him

 

[Barry O'Speedwagon]

Alex Ross goes ok too in this form of the game.

 

[Dibs]

I think usi is averaging something like 280 for the big bash this season

 

[Twizzle]

good to see those big levers of MMarsh finally pay off

shame we cant catch though

 

[jono]

Off to the T20 tomorrow night.....first time at the revamped Adelaide Oval, can't wait!

 

[strider]

Mitch Marsh just got out to a review only done after everyone saw the replay on the big screen

He hit the ball onto his foot and the bowler then caught it ... but everyone thought it hit the ground first ... turns out it didnt and he was out

The bowler half thought it was maybe out but i dont think youd say he appealed ... they showed a replay on the screen and suddenly the kiwis asked for a review


So i'm now calling it are all square for the underarm incident

 

[forward pass]

Is Maxwell planning on contributing to this side at some stage?

 

[Gary Gutful]

Is there still f**king cricket on? They have had their 3 months. Time for 9 months of league now.

 

[hineyrulz]

Matty Wade is the most useless donkey ever to keep for Aus.


At least Wayne Phillips could bat.

 

[Twizzle]

Maxwell, Boland and Wade = Moe, Larry and Curley

 

[hybrideel]

But Maxwell had his coming of age innings against India only 2 weeks ago and was now primed to go on to bigger and better things. Just ask James Brayshaw

 

[Twizzle]

Maxwell dropped from the T20 WC squad, so was Wade
