O'Keefe looking pretty average here
Re: Australian Cricket - Crisis, What Crisis ?? - DJC - 01-13-2017
Great century by Wade. It should give us a fighting chance.

Depends what the odds are and how many the Pakis can make ...er US dollars or British Pounds that is ..think they like the latter, Wade should thank Amir for those waste high full tosses on leg stump late in the innings,....my money is on the Aussies and easily, noticed Azhar has walked off the ground and retired hurt, think thats the ball game....
Hafeez should get an academy award for that dropped catch at slip too.....bet if that had been a bag of british pounds he would have caught it with one hand and had time to wave to Amir in the dressing room with the other...Babar couldnt have guided that ball to first slip any better either.....

Typical Mitch Marsh... Soaks up twenty balls and gets out. Lucky that his medium pacers have some value.
Re: Australian Cricket - Crisis, What Crisis ?? - malo - 02-08-2017
This is great to hear......exactly the attitude to take. Pat Cummins...take note.

"James Pattinson has declared he wants to harden his body by bowling as many overs as possible ahead of next summer’s Ashes — and he’ll bowl them his way."
Really hope he gets back to his best.

What the take on Marcus Stoinis??
As a Greek, I always like to see my fellow Greeks producing. I have no love for Cricket, but that doesnt mean I hate it. Its just a sport that doesnt interest me.

I like Stoinis as a cricketer and think he is worth a try at test level, we have spent and wasted a lot of time trying to find our Botham/Flintoff allrounder type and while Stoinis isnt anywhere near that
calibre especially in terms of bowling I think he is a capable player who might blossom with opportunity.
Has a reasonable batting technique, bowls decent line and has that handy knack of picking up wickets..

I am very impressed with Stoinis. His bowling is more penetrative than Hilton Cartright for a start (I see him as a Steve Waugh type of relief bowler) , and his batting is light years ahead of both he & Marsh.....should be groomed for the number 6 spot before the Ashes series I believe. Cartright is just cannon fodder.
Re: Australian Cricket - Crisis, What Crisis ?? - Pratty - 02-10-2017
Stoinis should be in our Test IMO.
1. Renshaw
2. Warner
3. Khawaja
4. Smith
5. Head
6. Handscomb (wk)
7. Stoinis
8. Starc
9. Cummins
10. Hazlewood
11. Zampa
Or...
Renshaw, Warner, Khawaja, Smith, Head, Handscomb (wk), Stoinis, Agar, Starc, Cummins, Hazlewood. 12th. J.Faulkner.
Sorry, I just don't want Nafe Lyon anymore. Who else is there we might ask?
I like Ashton Agar. Zampa has a bit about him I like and is getting international exposure at ODI level. Steve O'Keefe. Not for me. Others???
Re: Australian Cricket - Crisis, What Crisis ?? - LP - 02-23-2017
There is no way a cricket ball naturally looks so asymmetrically worn after 33 overs. Something is crook, it's falling apart like it's been hit with a grinder on one side. I'd be checking Indian pockets for the old sandpaper business card, or the sharp edged wedding ring!
Very suspect!
