Brett Lee to captain PM's XI

[ManWithNoName]

I'm assuming Khawaja and Ahmed won't be getting a game.

[Mancey]

Knowing abbotts penchant for gaffes, he'll probably pick hansie cronje and salim malik

 

[ManWithNoName]

I'll admit to opening this thread solely to make that joke.

 

[Natho]

Brett Lee still plays cricket?

 

[Ashton Agar]

Brett Lee still plays cricket?

Not internationally. He plays in the Big Bash for Sydney Sixers as well.

Imagine if he was lining up at Adelaide tomorrow... Johnson, Lee, Harris... That gives me a stiffy!

 

[Stan_Darsh72]

So Tony Abbott wants to give the poms a broken arm then?

alright mate, get off the PEDs

It would give the Poms one too.

I'll admit it interests me, wouldn't say it made me crack one through the covers though.

Johnson would be the one to miss out, not Siddle

Nah he'll open the batting with Brett and Glenn Stewart, with Daly Cherry-Evans and Kieran Foran opening the bowling. The token player will be from the Southern Districts RU club to appease Immigration minister Scott Morrison who I believe is club patron.

So the side will be:

1. Pomersbach (Qld)
2. Spaseski (ACT)
3. Hodge (Vic)
4. Lynn (Qld)
5. Handscomb (Vic, +)
6. Cutting (Qld)
7. Rose (Tas)
8. Lee (c, NSW)
9. Muirhead (Vic)
10. Bird (Tas)
11. McDermott (Qld)

Good bowling side. Looks like a "bowl first and hope to get them out cheaply" side. Hoping to see the spin twins in Cliiiive and Muirhead in tandem.

Boom.

 

[eth-dog]

Boom.

Come to think of it, all bar Clive are caucasions.

 

[Carbine Chaos]

Come to think of it, all bar Clive are caucasions.

Is that really that surprising given it is an Australian team?

 

[The_Reaper]

Boom.

Maybe they didn't get a game on merit?

But hey assume racism if you want

 

[The_Reaper]

Ahmed and Khawaja are caucasian. So is Clive Rose.

and you are assuming its racism?
you pick players on ability & form, not on skin color

 

[eth-dog]

I don't know the statistics but we've got a very multicultural society. Should be more reflective of that

 

[eth-dog]

Ahmed and Khawaja are caucasian. So is Clive Rose.

They're not playing this match though...

It was a comment. Don't jump to conclusions

 

[Carbine Chaos]

Why?

 

[The_Reaper]

I don't know the statistics but we've got a very multicultural society. Should be more reflective of that

Should we selected 5.5 women in the team as well?

They're not playing this match though...

Clive Rose is caucasian.
