Really impressed by Carey, looks a solid citizen but FIIK what the selectors see in Zampa. Very average.

Carey is handy with the bat for sure.......we just cant seem to get that keeper batsman who can hold his place in the top 6...its a bonus for SA having DeKock who can play in all formats.
Zampa doesnt get much deviation and is a one day domestic player only.....
Re: Australian Cricket - Crisis, What Crisis ?? - laj - 11-10-2018
Pitch might've been slow with the lower scores but then again this is two outstanding fast bowling attacks. Thanks goodness for our bowlers. Batting was better but lost wickets after good starts.
Now sure what they see in Zampa. His late order batting might've gone along way to winning the game for us but he's there to bowl. Every time I see Lyon bowl in the short form game he does well, not sure why he doesn't play. Not sure why Zampa plays ahead of Agar, a better bowler and he bats.
Re: Australian Cricket - Crisis, What Crisis ?? - Professer E - 11-10-2018
It was an odd game, neither side's batting looks convincing - shot selection awful eg Head missing a straight one. Both sides have good attacks although a lot of improvement left in ours. Neither of these teams can win the WC if it were played in their current guise. Batting simply neither in form or good enough.

Saffies really miss ABdV, more than they let on.

Better just get used to losing I guess. Nothing will be said about what Rabada did, but if an Australian bowler did the same thing it would be front page news. Mystifying
Just like CFC, too much over analysis because we simply aren't winning!

DRS rule needs an overhaul....Saffies took forever to ask for a review and the time limit for such an appeal was exceeded easily however SA did appeal and got the verdict.
David Miller was the player and he didnt make the appeal it was Faf Deplussis who did but the rule states the batsman on strike has to make the appeal. Miller who is a fine player should have been on his way but added about another 100 to his score......
Aleem Dar gave Miller out initially but seemed intent to save him and waited till Miller made some sort of half hearted appeal after Faf gestured he wanted to appeal..
A real messy appeal and the powers at be need to tighten up the laws in regards to DRS and signal time has expired.....
Re: Australian Cricket - Crisis, What Crisis ?? - LP - 11-11-2018
Sick of the commentators hanging it on Maxwell for scoring 35 odd in what was effectively four overs. They hang crap on him when he has to come in and score at 12 an over minimum. He's being setup to take the blame, Marsh will be in for another few losses before he saves his arse again with a 1 in 5 innings, and Starc, Hazelwood, Cummins and Stoinis will be free from blame for the tripe they delivered through the afternoon!
I don't get how the Saffies can bowl so high and wide and get away with it, if we did that to Faf it would be a NB-Wide-Bonus-Free Hit!
Re: Australian Cricket - Crisis, What Crisis ?? - Professer E - 11-11-2018
Overall a pretty meaningless series but we did ok given our craptastic batting. Gave up 20 - 30 too many bowling and our top order Fing useless again. Lynn opening, which Muppet came up with that brainiac decision? Lasted as long as I expected against Steyn - one ball. As for Head, I thought bats had to make runs to get a gig? What's he ever done? I get the feeling Maxy is coming in too late in the order, needs to bat one slot higher. A lot of work to do but it could be worse.
