Thank god the tail has been wagging

 

[Sir Deadly]

It’d be interesting to see how many times our bottom 6 had out scored our top 5 in the last two years.

Far too many....

 

[LukeParkerno1]

At least we don’t have Zampa bowling pies later

 

[gbatman]

These guys batting alright, doing what the tail should and slapping it around a bit. If these guys stay in we will end up with a score that gives us a sniff but s**t we will have to bowl well, attack and take early wickets.

 

[Wolfs]

Could have been a lot worse.

 

[Cleavy]

Expecting one of our bowlers to get white line fever and bowl pies, ruining any remote chance of winning we might have.

Typical perth crowds booing everything

 

[Sprout]

Well there’s our 152 from 38 overs that we don’t know is s**t until South Africa bat

Decent chance of Head going at 10+ an over if the side is still pretending he's a bowling option.

Need a World Cup vs NZ effort here. 150 not the greatest but it isn’t 80.. Not really anything overly assisting bowlers though, most just got out playing dumb cricket ( and South Africa aren’t NZ..)

 

[Badesumofu]

Doubt we end up using a 5th bowler. We'll either bowl them out or concede the runs in under 40. Hopefully Finch appreciates that and plans the innings accordingly.

Surely he isn’t bowling!

Just bowl the 4 decent quicks we have to bowl them out to win

Reading this thread its a new phenomenon that only started happening after the bans!

Given the attack picked you would get shorter odds than SA to win the game on it happening!

 

[Jimthegreat]

I'm very glad we have our full bowling compliment back............that way we can make some runs...lol.

 

[Tigerssaints]

i forgot NSW guys Mr George Bailey WON as captain the PM11

 

[Sprout]

It’d be alarming to see how many times our bottom 6 had out scored our top 5 in the last two years.

Fixed.

Didn't watch the whole innings, but from what I saw it is not a difficult pitch, just not a complete road.

Half our blokes have no technique and the other half have no temperament or shot selection.

There are not enough words to describe Australia.

 

[Marstermind]

If anyone is bowling who isn't Starc, Hazlewood, Cummins or NCN then either it's the 41st over or one of the above 4 are injured. Can only win this by bowling SA out and there's no way Stoinis, Head, Maxwell or Finch are doing that.

 

[BACCS]

Could have batted out those 50 overs if Carey has stuck around

Carey mentioned it is a difficult pitch to get settled on.

 

[Richard Pryor]

As a sidenote Minty du Plessis is my least favorite figure in the sport in recent years. Just comes across as a disingenuous slimeball of a bloke.

 

[FullyBigKPro]

Easily our best bowling line up for a while
