Re: Australian Cricket - Crisis, What Crisis ?? - ElwoodBlues1 - 02-20-2016
Brendon McCullum in his last test has gone berserk in NZ and hit the quickest century ever(145), along with his mate Corey the slogger Anderson they have cleared or hit the the boundary more times than I have seen in an innings...it was T20 stuff at test level.....NZ all out 370 and Aus 1 for 37 in reply(Warner out)..Kiwis may just get up and win this one for McCullum..

With BM dropped how many times (and 1 no ball wicket)?
Re: Australian Cricket - Crisis, What Crisis ?? - Professer E - 02-20-2016
Patterson - wicket from a NB again... epitome of stupidity.
Warner out early again - mind ain't on the job IMO.

Aus fielding isnt what it used be and no ball wickets seem a feature of test cricket these days.....Bracewell got dudded the last test with a reverse no ball wicket..

It was a ripper catch off the no-ball!
You'd think the bowlers would work just a little harder on getting their run ups right, particularly with the punishment dished out by reprieved batsmen.

Our batting: I wish Warner could get to the point where his form lasts a whole summer. he usually starts with a bang and than struggles near the end. At the moment we need a real innings from him.

Lads doing it nicely now.
Lyon a tidy score as night watchman too (no doubt more than Marsh can muster with the bat too I suspect).
Re: Australian Cricket - Crisis, What Crisis ?? - flyboy77 - 02-21-2016
Even if Voges gets out first ball after lunch, he'll average a lazy 94.14 after 20 innings (the normal benchmark fort inclusion in most lists) - second only to the Don.....
Re: Australian Cricket - Crisis, What Crisis ?? - DJC - 02-22-2016
There's an interesting discussion about concussion after Smith's KO. I would be surprised if cricket doesn't move into line with other sports when it comes to head injuries.
Re: Australian Cricket - Crisis, What Crisis ?? - JonHenry - 02-24-2016
Australia win and take the number 1 mantle for test cricket back.
I am often very cautious about us proclaiming to be the # 1 side but I honestly believe this group plus 3 or 4 others are the best in the world.
When you consider the improvement in the batting, in particular Khawaja at number 3, it is a very ominous line up. If Mitch Marsh can soften his hands they will be a great top 6.
Our bowling has very good skill and variety. Add Starc and Cummins to that group and they are world class.
Lyon will end up with 400+ wickets.
