Pretty sure it's one guy. Kit Harris, part of the original Test Match Sofa team. -
The Interesting Scorecard Thread
https://www.espncricinfo.com/series/indian-premier-league-2013-586733/kings-xi-punjab-vs-mumbai-indians-69th-match-598066/full-scorecard The last thing that Adam Gilchrist did as a professional cricketer was to take a wicket. It was only wicket as a bowler. -
Who should replace Nathan Lyon?
Makes no difference to test selection. -
Test The Ashes Third Test December 17-21 1000hrs @ The Adelaide Oval
Fun fact: Australia has changed its XI for the last 14 matches in a row (Melbourne will be the 15th). I don't think a settled team bothers them that much, tbh. -

As a batter? Look, I have a lot of time for Cooper Connolly to eventually be a test batter but there's at least half a dozen that I'd pick ahead of him. Give him another year or two in the Shield and if he's starting to hit centuries then he could come in at 24yo and have a 10+ year test... -
Josh Frydenberg. Out of his depth.
He did. https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2023/oct/10/pro-palestine-rally-sydney-opera-house-protest-australia-leaders-condemn-anti-jewish-chants- Word Count: 24

True, but touring the world as a cricket statistician and stand-up comedian is the sort of life I'd be pretty happy to lead, tbh. -
Test Surely the Cummins/McDonald captain/coach setup is the worst in Australian Test history
For a start, McDonald is contracted until the end of 2027. And second, in what bizarre parallel universe does he need to move on? -
What will our XI look like for the first test of the 2027 Ashes
Aren't we still boycotting them? -
Test The Ashes Third Test December 17-21 1000hrs @ The Adelaide Oval
The technology provider is chosen by the host broadcasters, not Cricket Australia. Fox is the host broadcaster for the Tests, and they have a contract with BBG Sports, who owns Snicko. Channel Seven is the host broadcaster for the BBL, and they have a contract with Hawk-Eye/Sony, who owns... -

It would be extremely abnormal to pick a batter who has never scored a professional century. -

Ponting wasn't fast-tracked. He had two years of first-class cricket and 2,000+ runs in the Shield before his test debut. And Clarke had almost five years between first-class and test debut. -
Test The Ashes Third Test December 17-21 1000hrs @ The Adelaide Oval
Green and Webster have both played 12 test innings in 2025 - Webster has scored 381 at 34.63, and Green 264 at 22.0. Webster has taken 8 wickets and Green 2. The only reason Green keeps getting picked ahead of Webster is because he is the shiny toy. -
