Sheffield Shield Season 2015/2016

Would be rare to drop an opener without the bloke coming in taking that spot.

Can't see it being a long term solution moving Ferguson, Cooper or Head unless they were going to be dropped otherwise. Maybe Ross is moving up after showing a bit. Where does he usually bat in grade cricket?

Ross is middle order.

No Alex Carey?

[Tony Clifton]

Maybe Cooper is going to open? I reckon he has done it before.

Cosgrove
Cooper
Ferguson
Head
Ross
Lehmann
Ludeman
Zampa
Mennie
Sayers
Worrall

Benton (12th)

Worrall.....Really?

Was thinking the same, seriously? Surely Benton gets picked ahead of him?

Really doesn't matter with us, even batting at 5 you're pretty much opening.

Cooper to open and Zampa 12th for the next Shield match.

Benton and Worrall both in.....

And Benton batting at 5?? what is the supposed method to this madness?

[Jim05]

SA 3/100 at lunch after losing 2 late in the session, Cosgrove for 52 and then Head for 0

He's at 11 according to cricket.com,au, Head's gone for a globe, we're 3/100.

Well stupider things have happened....Richo at 3 in Hobart....

Tasmania usually offers bit more for the quicks than the spinners doesn't it? That would explain the Zampa omission for Benton..

3/157 now.

That is almost acceptable.....But still need a huge partnership to give the bowlers something to work with.

Great session for the boys there. 3/240 at Tea, definitely a great platform to work from.

Hopefully these two can ton up!!

[Dogwatcher]

Would love to see both Ferg and Lehmann ton up.

[The Bedge]

Going at a good rate! 4.07 rpo.

Must say I'm a big fan of the introduced bonus points system for attacking cricket - I think it's worked in SA's favour, we tend to score quickly (albeit not large amounts) and our bowling is usually quite good.

Agree, that point system has worked so well in English cricket for decades it never should have taken this long for a version of it to be implemented over here.
