Good catch but the fish could have let the ball touch the ground and still been credited with it

Malinauskas unloads regarding the scheduling of the WIndies test in Adelaide. It's exactly what I've been saying - starting a test on Wednesday is ridiculous. It'll be over by Friday night.

Has to be a minimum of 4 days between tests so unfortunately our test has to be squeezed in with a stupid start date

Good team.
Tugga Waugh is an interesting one.
I’d have Border, Viv Richard’s, Smith, Chappell before him


Pure love of the great man gets him in. Just loved the way he went about it.

Head turns 30 today leaving Labuschagne as the only 20 something in the side, he's the oldest player to have been the youngest player in an Australian test team ever.

Absolutely, he epitomises the Aussie spirit, he’s as hard as a cats head.

I have a different view of S Waugh, his mental disintegration method was the first sign of Australian cricket not respecting the opposition in my view.

Yeah it's interesting.

We don't seem to have too many in that 25 - 30 bracket really banging the door down.

There are a few younger prospects coming through though that would be interesting to have a look at.

Obviously Cam Green is 23 (ish) and in that bracket. Morris is 25 and it would be good to see him at some stage.

From a batting Teague Wylee looks a ripper. Made plenty of runn sin the 2022 ICC U19 world cup and bats in the top order for WA in shield cricket.

Same here boon, I always thought their was a tinge of selfishness with him on field which isn't a trait of a great leader usually.

Plus he wore his baggy green to Wimbledon that time which is just plain ridiculous
