That would mean Lyon misses, cant see us playing 2 spinners


Surely they wouldn't pick Agar ahead of Lyon just yet?

Tour match vs Sussex

Lunch Day 1

Australians 0/132

Cowan 57 (95)
Hughes 70 (92)

Quick scoring, but fairly ordinary Sussex attack it seems.

Q: How does a batsman go from 38 off 40 balls to 145 off 79 balls?

A: If he is Glenn Maxwell, he does this to the next 39 balls: 6, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 4, 4, 4, 1, 4, 4, 1, 1, 0, 4, 4, 4, 1, 4, 1, 0, 1, 6, 1, 4, 0, 4, 6, 4, 4, 2, 1, 6, 6, 6, 0, 4, 1.
