RSA are Eglar or bust even against that weak attack

Just don't get why anyone would want to go and watch this. It is not a contest as pitch is a road. Australia will get the wickets because the Windies are a Third grade club level side, curator will get away with preparing a crap pitch as it got a result. Again almost certainly with a first innings declaration.

Sam Whiteman is the smoky.

Had two great s/s seasons

He’s also the most aptly named sportsman since Rolando Blackman

If its a traditional Adelaide pitch, its good to bat on first 3 days then becomes hard couple last days.

Given that Head scores 80% of his runs in one quarter of the ground, it shouldn't be that hard to keep him quiet.

Perhaps stop with the half trackers 2 feet outside off stump. Or the one step half volleys.

Just sayin’

 

[philreich]

No South Australian batsman has ever scored a Test double century in Adelaide - go Travis!!!

 

[LukeParkerno1]

So how many spinners are you taking?

3 for me. Kuhermann, Lyon and Murphy.

Agar some hope but personally don’t rate him that much but it’s the type that does well I’d understand it.

 

[Borisdog]

I know everyone is excited for South Africa but we'll see similar to this if the pitches stay like this.

The Saffers are levels of magnitude of talent over this lot.

They will no way on Earth be easy.

How can a 6’7” guy bowl low 120’s?

It's a worry

As a bowling side yes their batting is dreadful aside from Elgar

 

[madjoe]

people flaming WI bowling attack but they are missing close to 6 bowlers, what would our side look like if we had that many down? wess agar ? lol copeland? we'd look pretty modest too

So it caters for batting and the spinners. The quicks can go get stuffed?

We have like 7-8 in spare that would be better than these 125kmph rolly polly military mediums.

You‘re quite right of course. But you play the course you’re on.

Holder has been in the side for years, and to (mis) quote Jack Dyer, “ Looks like Tarzan, bowls like Jane”

Gawd we finally agree on something.Suppose selection might come down to how many players they are taking over there.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Yessssssss

Itsssssss Chase time!!!

Roll those non spinners down Roston

 

[madjoe]

We have like 7-8 in spare that would be better than these 125kmph rolly polly military mediums.

name them, richo, then who? morris is unproven,

Watch them pick Zampa which would be a horrendous call

 

[Adelaide Hawk]

Why would you feel the need to reverse sweep Chase?

 

[LukeParkerno1]

name them, richo, then who? morris is unproven,

Richardson
Morris
Abbott (would do more than fine)
Bird
Steketee

At least then you have blokes like Siddle who can do a job. Honestly at least these don’t bowl medium nothings.

 

[11kgm]

name them, richo, then who? morris is unproven,

Tremain, Richo, Sutherland, Morris, Stekete, Kelly, Paris, Richo, Boland, Abbott

 

[Around the Wicket]

Its good Labs stabilised his average in this series because it was in free fall
