NSW should bring Boult into the attack.

Good chance of winning the most important cricket match of the day

For sure, would definitely have him in the Ashes team over Burns and i'm a big Burns fan.

Yep he's ahead of both Burns and S Marsh for me.

Carters and Henry pairing not working and it exposes the middle order when one or both invariably fail. Larkin should get another opportunity

Voges is the first batsman since Klinger and Rogers in 2008/09 to pass 1000 runs in a Shield season.

Didn't North do it last season?

Edit: Nope only 886

Imagine if he'd played on. Replace Harris with North and that is a crazy batting line-up.

What a sensational turnaround. Adam Voges take a bow. Bloody brilliant to see Agar enjoying himself again too!

After his brother died he lost his passion unfortunately

Didn't he still play county? Still at least he finished his career on a good note.

Get Maddinson back opening? Although going perfectly fine at 4, Henry should be dropped before Carters if you ask me

 

[The_Reaper]

Voges four runs off 10,000

Noticed that he was very close looking at his career stats before, but couldn't be bothered doing the maths. A day of achievements for him

No leave Maddo at 4. He batted down the order last year and did well then reverted to his bad old habits and scores when he opened again earlier this year. Henry also produced better scores at 3, although that's not too hard to do given his average record

 

[Andronicus]

With the points system, is there bonuses for winning the game? Or does the result matter less than the wickets and runs?

You get points for winning.

WA number 1 now

Agree was just a suggestion, straight swap Larkin for Henry. Larkin was reasonable in the matches he has played so deserves another shot.

 

[grimlock]

The real problem is that we are one batsman short. I don't think Henriques is good enough to be at 5, but because of the bowling lineup we are forced into this somewhat unbalanced side

In an ideal world, probably have one less bowler, have Mo at 7 behind Neville and bowling more and then get another batsman in (Rohrer?)

only bright light on a very sour weekend of sport
