Why is Short worth persisting with? He's 29, his domestic career is a patchwork of below average.
Because he can actually bat. Prior to his big bash form for Adelaide he was making shield hundreds.

Phillipe to swap with Fraser
Stoinis is in the squad for maybe a farewell game ?? in front of his home crowd
has been for a long time. not shocked we lost, our batting is shit and likely will continue to be shit for a long time.Greg Chappell saw him get 70 off 46 balls in some puss Vic pathway game about 12 years ago and he got a free pass since then…then JFM got a similar ride
No one has been given the ride this bloke has.
I continue to repeat TALENT is the most overrated thing in Australian cricket particularly batting
Oh yes, Shield. That's the same as one day cricket.Because he can actually bat. Prior to his big bash form for Adelaide he was making shield hundreds.
He signed some stupid multi-year deal with Fox Sports so unfortunately we are stuck with him.Hollly shit. Please tell me Warner isn’t commentating all summer.
Jesus we can never be rid of this guy.
Also very surprised at how squeaky his voice is. Please no
Candace approves of this.He signed some stupid multi-year deal with Fox Sports so unfortunately we are stuck with him.
Ah yes 30 seconds of him being pissed as he walks off makes him so unwatchable.Can add Smith too unfortunately.
Gun bat in a bit of decline ( understandably) but his over the top mannerisms and reaction to getting out takes away from watching him bat imo.
He's never been the most articulate. Anything above being absolutely useless is above expectations.Everyone is going to hate him because they have already decided he is basically the devil but I have thought Warner has been okay to start the summer
I’ve found his Analysis to be solid, I found his take on our opening situation pretty in line with what most think.He's never been the most articulate. Anything above being absolutely useless is above expectations.
hasn't she signed on as wellCandace approves of this.
Champions Trophy is in February/March, and we only have one more ODI between now and then (in Sri Lanka, the week before the CT starts).Honestly who cares, ODIs are pointless outside the World Cup and that's years away
JFM and Short can both piss off though
And yet, with only one more ODI to come and no clear alternative, he probably gets picked.Champions Trophy is in February/March, and we only have one more ODI between now and then (in Sri Lanka, the week before the CT starts).
These games are useful for trying a few players out - you'd think Fraser-McGurk has ruled himself out of contention.
I agree, didn't really care about the result, in fact really appreciated some good cricket from Pakistan. For me would like to some interesting contest. So far it's been one interesting game, and a one sided game. Would be nice to see a game that both teams get at least 40 overs in.Honestly who cares, ODIs are pointless outside the World Cup and that's years away
JFM and Short can both piss off though
I just have a feeling they’ll dump Short and pick JFM on potential. Reckon he makes the squad.
Couldn't give two shits about that meme tourneyChampions Trophy is in February/March,.
People were all behind JFM being in the T20WC squad and the selectors held their nerve. Hopefully they'll do it againI just have a feeling they’ll dump Short and pick JFM on potential. Reckon he makes the squad.
Honestly, would be happy with Head and Inglis opening, just not sure if he wants to open while keeping.
At least you didn’t pay $85 for the privilegeffs Australia, was going to kick back with a few bevvies to watch this game at night but they already lost the match. flipping useless.
At least you didn’t pay $85 for the privilege
There is being disappointed with getting out and then there is carrying on every single time you are out which he pretty much does even moreso these days.Ah yes 30 seconds of him being pissed as he walks off makes him so unwatchable.
This continues to be the worst cricket take I see on a semi regular basis.
