What did he say?

Pretty sure Carey is a lock for test keeper.
Haven't read anything that suggests otherwise.

Saw few days back on fb something that he said thats the ODI/test spot is similar and how he is looking forward to knuckling down for SA. I don’t think he will be ousted and don’t think he should be either.

Scorcher boys doing the job again.

 

[KBLT]

I blame Wade

 

[Tugga27]

Hardie learning about international cricket pretty quickly.

 

[Truckosaurus]

3/80 at 10.2 finishing at 3/222, jeez. Goddorff untouchable again though.

They really should have picked Turner over Wade and had him captain.

 

[Keys]

Good idea bringing on Maxwell to bowl the last over

 

[ep2018]

We'll lose this series 5-0 and no one will give a shit. We won the world cup.

We'll lose this series 5-0 and no one will give a s**t. We won the world cup.

I'm sure the players, especially the new ones give a shit.
Plenty of supporters do as well.

It's not a pub game.

 

[Carbine Chaos]

Disappointing thing for me is going back to the Wade, K Richardson, (even) Stoinis wells.

Not sure what the point of this series is at all coming off a huge international event. Just a weird afterthought.

The existence of this series will be forgotten within 24hrs of its conclusion just like every other bilateral T20 series.

They are uniquely unimportant

Wade might be the worst captain I've ever seen in the field.

Yep

Should've been full of newbies.
Wade as captain was a bewildering choice.

I think Maxy made up for it in the end

 

[RookiePick]

43 required off the last 2 overs. Pretty good hitting by Wade and Maxy but I think the Indian 'keeper won it for us. 4 byes to finish the penultimate over [emoji23]

How good is Jhye? Barely played any cricket the last few months, straight in against a pretty strong QLD lineup and currently has figures of 4-28 in 20 overs.

Would love to see him get his body right and get another crack at the Test team. He brings something different to the mix being a firey little short arse that skids them in at 145+km/h and moves it both ways. Also a handy lower order stick.

I think CA may have to look at compulsory declarations after 100 overs.
Something has to be done.

Qld 200 from 91 overs.


I know time was lost due to rain, but It's been pretty much happening all year.

The pitches this season haven't helped. It's either highways or demon pitches. Today is the latter, the conditions haven't helped.

It's been the lack of intent for me.

Some of the earlier games, sides happy to bat for the first 5 sessions which basically kills the game.

Wow, seen more of the groundsman than I needed to

 

[ioppolo]

Frasier-McGurk is an ex Vic boy so probably some mates rates there. Happy he got called back for that though.

That's a genuine shocker from the umpire. Embarrassing really.

Jez an entertainer, knew 200 wouldn't be enough to make it an exciting game so threw enough pies down at the end to ensure he was able to ton up and break some Indian hearts.

reckon it’s probably to do with Habdscomb thinking he was not out last night and try to prove a stupid point to the redbacks

 

[RookiePick]

Scorchie gurls need 90 odd off 5 overs.

Not optimal.
