[the joker]

i reckon Cam Borgas may be 12th mab for this game,

i reckon Cam Borgas may be 12th mab for this game,

The selectors have set a precedent and must be consistent for the season
IF Klinger is IN the eleven
Either HARRIS or OBRIEN who top scored and 2nd top scored in the last game Vrs TA must be dropped
MANOU after failing at 4 can expect a batting promotion to 1st drop or opener
CHRISTIAN after his late flurry of runs v TA can now expect to be batting below TAIT, HABERFIELD and GEORGE

Lose this game SA can almost say goodbye to a Franger Cup Final
We have a chance
LAUGHLIN/SWANN/HARRIS are all likely non starters becoz of injury

GEORGE is the key if he can fire out BROAD and the immeasurable veteran CARSELDINE we can win this

At this stage my tip is
SA if KLINGER plays
QL if KLINGER is not in the eleven

SPORTSBET ODDS
the sponsors cant pick the winner
QL $1-90
SA $1-90
Im gunna have a sMALl bet on my main man Klinger at $4-50 to make most runs for SA
Just a matter of waiting to see if he is in the eleven

12TH MAN
The Joker predicts Borgas
I predict Cooper , becoz Borgas is a middle order batter, Cooper is best suited in the top 3 and if Klinger plays he should be omitted purely for team balance
However it would be grossly unfair as Cooper had a very good season last year batting top 3

[The Jack]

Carseldine's a gun, in all forms of the game of late. He is the key wicket for sure. It amazes me he's not playing for Aus, at least in 20/20 cricket. Meanwhile, our worst performing 20/20 cricketer has been made the new captain! How does CA expect us to take tee-ball (as REB calls it) seriously, if they don't themselves???? Sorry, slightly off topic there!

[Ron Burgundy]

I'd think his age is costing him opportunities.

Did anyone watch McDermott bowl against the Worriers? A real chip of the old block. You can tell he's 'Billy's Kid'.

right down to the zinc cream

anyway the selcetors have relented and klinger is in for smith - right decision in my view, now we just need to push manou down the order

[jackpot jim]

can only get better.....

Better ???????????????

2/0 after 1.4 overs

[sapaul]

2/0

Neither were out.

edit: Neither should have been given out.

[westcoastpanther]

OK Blink, now you can bag the piss out of them.....

[jackpot jim]

2/0

Neither were out.

edit: Neither should have been given out.

may be, may be not BUT if both batsmen HIT the ball in the middle of the bat there would have been NO dramas.

[rod_rooster]

Not sure that Klinger will see the humour in this but still it's pretty funny. Feel sorry for the guy though. Would have had a fair bit of pressure on him after the past few days.

[sapaul]

2/15

we'll win this.

Good to see COSI batting like a batsman instead of batting like an idiot
His innings v TA was one of the worst 20 Ive seen from a number 3 bat
Today he is batting properly
His usual disMissAL for 45-55 runs is on the cards
