When this team starts failing, which it will, it will be a hard thud.

That’s what happens when the chairman of selectors admits to only looking one or two Tests ahead. :roll:

Will still win easily but that just extends the fallacy for longer.


Australia are number 1 test side because the bowling is so bloody good only one batsmen an innings has to make a score for them to be in the game.


100%

4-127, two set batsman and Trav **** it up

Travis Head
Test average 43
7 test centuries
Has that average coz he has the courage to play shots , and often enough when the team is struggling

If I was his captain I would encourage him to play the way he does

FFS, bowlers cant bowl another 8 overs before resting for the night? Too much to ask?


I feel very Un-Australian, BUT….I find myself wanting Marnus to fail, so unlikeable :shock:

And wanting it to piss down Day 4 and 5 as we didn’t enforce the follow on :shock:


Why the f*ck wouldn’t Green want to come in? If it was a captain’s call then he should have told him to get f*cked.

I will go to my grave not getting why there’s such a thing as a nightwatchman. :evil:


164 OZ
41 LYON and top score
34 GREEN 2nd top score

If it pitched 2cm shorter ball tracking would definitely be able to work out how far it was turning...
