Tassie have got the easy part over with...knocking over NSW top order.
Now comes the hard task of dismissing their middle and lower order.....

Typical Maddinson. To be fair and I'll try and say this nicely. He is the most talented batsman (young) in Australia period. We will hope maddinson clicks as he could be something special. I see him as a middle order bat, I don't see him as an opener anyway. If he gets rid of the slog shots he would be so much better. When he plays normal cricket shots he does well.

Get Nevill early and it's game on pretty much.

Rohrer has barely scored a run in a year why he is a walk up start I'll never know!

I'd be more worried if he wasn't smacking some 2nd graders!

Another great innings by the 'all rounder' Sean Abbott! I was generous when I said he averaged about 5 this year!

Our best two batsmen are at the crease.
He's an allrounder like Ryan Harris used to be an "allrounder". Bit of talent with the bat in the u19s, never translated to FC. Still no bunny, but I think it's time Cricinfo updated their profile.

Harris could bat more than Abbott! Abbott reminds me of a drunk that keeps swinging! You never know you might hit 1 in 10
Harris is a significantly better batsman now than he was 6 or 7 years ago.
And Abbott isn't THAT bad. He averages 21 in OD cricket, which is handy. Agree that he's not the smartest batsman around though. SOK should definitely bat higher than him.

Not a bad FC bowler, lacks any variation for the shorter form. But should be getting a game over Doherty in the Shield.
It was a strange case with Harris. He was a very accomplished lower order batsman in domestic cricket, but had an awful first couple of years with the bat in test cricket. Settled down nicely now though, but it was baffling at the time seeing him rack up duck after duck knowing his ability.
He wasn't THAT good a batsman at domestic level. He was handy at number 8 and that's it. About where I'd put Abbott.

If it were Sean Abbott he would have made the 100, I'm sure.

In 20 innings maybe lol. Always comical seeing Abbott bat ahead of O'Keefe lol

I want a Sandhu ton
Not saying he was a genuine allrounder or anything (although he reckoned he was pushing it in his book), but I just have memories of a Queensland lower order lineup of Harris, Hauritz and Noffke being consistently successful.
