Phil Hughes - When do we drop him?

[hineyrulz]

True, what odds did you get, got Warner at $7.50 for the first hundred, so I'm up $750...thanks Bunnies Tard!:lol:

I had the last of my betting account on him which was $35 @ 8's :lol: So i can now have a weekend bet on the GG's thanks to BunniesTard \\\\/

Just want to know his next batsmen that he'll do it to....Hussey....Cowan.....Warner:lol:

I breathed life into Cowan and Warner.

Goes to show how far gone Ponting is that even I'm being proven right about him and his failures this summer.

In expectation of Watson coming back, he's only average 25 as a batsman in his last 8 tests. And he's not a good enough bowler to keep a spot in the team with that batting average. if he can't make the most of his chances when he gets back in, his place will be in jeopardy.

But for now Ponting must go to make way for Hughes.

For Perth or Melbourne though?

For Perth or Melbourne though?

It should have happened 2 years ago so every test it is delayed only makes the problem worse.

No point procrastinating on what needs to be done. If I was selector Ponting would be dropped for Perth.

I would give Clarke Hughes and Khawaja to replace Quiney and Ponting. And they would both be given the same run older lower potential players have been given.

 

[lockyno1]

Ponting or Watson most runs in Perth, thanks Bunnies Tard!

 

[Twizzle]

Blues need Hughes and Oozi back, couldn't win a game of marbles atm

Ponting or Watson most runs in Perth, thanks Bunnies Tard!

Safer than the bank:lol:

 

[BunniesMan]

Tell me more about all the Sheild hundreds Hughes has scored this year BM?

He's got within a combined 30 runs of scoring 3 of them.

He'll be batting tomorrow. He's due for a big one.

@WestEndRedbacks Phil Hughes brings up his 50 for the @WestEndRedbacks. The boys are looking good, after 30 overs they are 1/106 #BupaSS

@WestEndRedbacks Congratulations to @WestEndRedbacks Phil Hughes on scoring 100 against the @bushrangers at the MCG #BupaSS

<self high five>

He's now the leading run scorer in Shield cricket this season. His average would be around 50. He's been consistent with 4 scores of 80+ in 6 games. There cannot be any arguments against him being next picked.

 

[BunniesMan]

At stumps, Hughes is 127 n.o. I watched most of it and he looks so much more solid than he did 2 years ago. He batted all day, this was a very patient knock off 197 deliveries. He never looked like getting out. And to prove how solid he was all day, he scored 3 boundaries in the last 2 overs of the day.

He is Shields leading run scorer. His time has arrived. If Watson is not fit, Hughes must come in for Quiney. If Watson is fit, Hughes must come in for Ponting.

 

[umina panther]

Whilst your man love is going too far, you are actually right for once

 

[hineyrulz]

If Watson isn't fit i hate to admit it BunniesMong is right, Hughes and then Uzi should come in.

 

[beads6]

I'd be picking Khawaja ahead of Hughes at this stage but Hughes is scoring runs and I love it.
