Actually thought he should've been in the side from the start, He's been making runs for quite a while. Don't understand why he's not. Career average of 41 and in terrific form this year.

We have a habit of picking blokes who aren't in form.  I can take an average player in good touch,  lord knows we've picked enough average players in poor form,  with concomitant results.

Harris
Finch
Kawahja
Marsh
Hanscombe
Head
Paine

Remind me who the Average NSW are?
Who are the Pro NSW selectors?


Re: Australian Cricket - Crisis, What Crisis ?? - Professer E - 01-18-2019

Kawahja is from NSW and he's average,  especially against spin.

Finch is finished at international level.  Chronic front foot issue.

FFS, the Marsh brothers score runs but geez how can the national team keep tolerating the stupid ways they find to go out, today stumped on a wide!

CA should get these hacks out of the XI before we play Sri Lanka, or they will all make 200s and be embedded in the team for another half a decade!

One is never brim full of confidence watching either of them.  Techniques are atrocious, methods of dismissal, far worse


Re: Australian Cricket - Crisis, What Crisis ?? - Professer E - 01-18-2019

Gees LP,  you're confident,  I'm worried that our bats will struggle to score against Sri Lanka, talk of double hundreds is pushing it a bit.

The 3rds batting 9 or 10 are making hundreds against the Sri Lankans!


Re: Australian Cricket - Crisis, What Crisis ?? - Professer E - 01-18-2019

But the ones in the test side aren't.

Sri Lankans are a very ordinary outfit, I dont want the Marsh boys etc making runs vs these sub district standard hackers and then getting picked for England...
Their bowling is rancid with only the 40 year old Herath who isnt touring the only real test class bowler....

Pity we didnt play more tests vs India or maybe a couple vs South Africa and sort out the pretenders from the contenders.....
