Ashes 25/26

[Jack Mundy]

Last time an Ashes was live going into Sydney we were welcoming in 1983.

Um..1994-95

 

[dumb]

so... field placings and tactics. does smith continue the drawing a series in england but also hair-pulling-out effort from cummins?

 

[Kapow!!!]

Um..1994-95

When Sydney was the third test and not the fifth. I believe he's referring to the series being live in the last test in Australia

He said being live going into Sydney.

 

[Blue Red and Gold]

Think we are all doomed to think we will be 2 for 30 in the first test. love to see Head open and risk the biscuit.

Thank you i'll take all the credit send me the bill

"Ignorant Resilience"

A friend of my conned the term for today's chess. But England cricket team it applies. They will not learn.

I'm leanng in on Mitch Marsh opening and Webster coming in for Lyon.

England even if they thrash us and core 450 are not. going. to bat much more than 50 overs. If Lyon is not fit I don't see a great role for regular spinner (who would uit be Swepson or Murphy?) Having a aggressive disruptor on the top of the oder, or Keep Head opening and bring in Marsh at 6,

Then keep Boland or bring in Neser

Renshaw in khawaja out

Like it as a general team. Could see Lyon out for Neser in pink ball match in Brisbane.

Especially if he's pulled up a bit sore with a day Test in Adelaide in December which could see him bowling a lot.

2010/11

Incorrect. We could have drawn the series but England had retained the Ashes at that point

Rocco gone above Murphy/kuna Imo after winning the game against qld last week

Rocco is an over the top spinner similar to lyon better for Aus Murphy cuts it more suited to the sub continent for me

If Cummins doesn't come up get him in there

You've held that opinion forever. Kuhnemann and Murphy are ahead until the selection proves otherwise

 

[Westend]

Yeah and when Lyon retires I think you will find Rocco will be the first called up ..no way Kuna and Murphy are above Rocco in Aussie conditions thats the point....subcontinent yeah

as I said previously Rocco is similar to Lyon with his bounce and over the top Murph cuts the ball better suited for the subcontinent

Bazball feels like a team full of that bloke we all played with who had a great eye and could really hit them but it only worked about one in five innings.
