Endless Summer of Cricket

[John Who]

Ussie’s injury could be a blessing. Smith to 3, Handscomb at 4, and then leave the rest as is.

Not sure how you can call it a blessing. Ussie’s one of our best ODI batsmen outside of the openers and Carey. He’s probably on par to Smith right now.

I think with the suspected hammy and the way he was batting after coming back on, I think he’s done for the WC. Hopefully this doesn’t unsettle the batting in the upcoming match.

No way Khawaja gets up for the semi & battling for the final of we make it.

Stoinis being in doubt is a blessing in disguise as he's by far the weakest link in our squad. M. Marsh has his critics but he's a solid limited overs player. Khawaja hurts though as he's the leading run-scorer this year but moving Smith up to 3 would likely be for the better.

 

[Scorpus]

Ellyse Perry just took 5-12 in the Women's Ashes and England are sitting at 6-21

Ended with figures of 7-22

 

[CrowBloke]

Aussie Women's team going great guns:
Australia 7/260 (50 overs) thrashed England 75 all out (32.5 overs), Perry 7/22 (a record).

Now, if Starc takes 7/22 tomorrow night ...

Edit: Scorpus just saw your post *snap*

 

[CrowBloke]

Warner is such a chode

... because his bat is wider than it is long?

 

[CrowBloke]

M. Marsh has his critics but he's a solid limited overs player.

MMarsh is one of the worst batting (#6) all-rounders, ever, in the history of ODI Cricket.

M Marsh is one of worst all rounders - Google Search

Travis Head is a better batsman (34.4 @ SR90) and could bowl a few overs with Maxwell, Finch and Smith, as suggested by Kane McGoodwin.
Wade has been scoring big runs at a good clip for Australia A, but is clearly not wanted by Langer et al.

He's the 2nd worst #6 batsman of all time, but that's in Test Cricket. His ODI record is much more respectable. Not good, but definitely more respectable than his test record.

Quite right, my mistake thanks.
Do you think they'll persevere with Stoinis or pick MMarsh/Head with Handscomb in for Khawaja?

 

[CrowBloke]

Wow, Wade just called into WC ODI squad. Announced Ch7 just now.
I like it, especially if he plays.

Not more he could do apart from kiss Finch's arse. What is the squad?

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

S Marsh, Stoinis and Khawaja are out of the squad due to injury

Handscomb, M Marsh and Wade all drafted in

Stoinis plays if he's fit. They've picked him for every game so far, no reason to think that will change (barring injury).

Team is so much better now

 

[CrowBloke]

no reason to think that will change

Zampa OUT, Lyon IN.
Also, Berehndorf's selection was a beauty, plus given the new ball.

 

[Tex200]

Don’t mind Wade coming in for Maxwell at 5. Far better batsman and can score quickly in last 10

 

[dogs105]

Stuff the Crows, I'm switching to cricket.

Smash thr Saffies as we want NZ in the semis.

Stuff the cricket. I'm switching to tennis.


Wait, what???

 

[dogs105]

Finch
Warner
Wade
Smith
Maxwell
Marsh
Carey
Starc
Cummins
Behrendorff
Lyons/Zampa (toss a coin - they've both been ordinary)

 

[Scorpus]

Lyon over Zampa every day.

Zampa is playing like soggy weetbix. Lyon has been decent

Unless it's a seaming pitch, I wouldn't play Marsh & even then i would consider bringing in NCN.

Finch
Warner
Smith
Handscomb
Wade
Maxwell
Carey
Cummins
Starc
Behrendorff
Lyon

We can get 10 overs out of Maxwell, Smith & Finch.

If we get off to a good start, Handscomb drops down the order.

 

[Tex200]

Sounds like Stoinis will come up.

Also the extra bonus if two keepers go down we still have a 3rd

Atkins?

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Langer saying Handscomb definitely in for Khawaja

Stoinis likely fit

And... Wade possibly in for Maxwell
