Cricket Discussion - Part 3

[philreich]

Getting ugly for Potts

Potts reminds me of Derek Pringle. He was excellent in English conditions, but as soon as he came out here, he was smashed to all parts.

At this stage as far as all rounders go I think Michael Neser and Mitchell Starc are better value than Cam Green. Starc average 32.20 and Neser 25.00 with the bat while Cam Green is averaging 18.66!

 

[tribey]

Can you still retire hurt and come back later in the innings?

Thoughts on Neser going off for Smith and coming back later?

Lol Gilchrist just suggested it

Plus Webster is no mug with the bat. Why do we need Green?

Just stay out there - the longer he bats, the more it hurts the opposition. Imagine Smith coming in at 3 for 300.

Moot point now, but Neser did a wonderful job!!!

He's still out there but the way Trav is carrying on making me feel uneasy.

Same - he's batting as if we're 200 in front, not 135 behind.

 

[Festerz]

Yep. But that's the way he plays.

162 runs from just 160 balls and 25 boundaries tells me it's working a treat.

And he's giving the Poms a lesson in how Bazball is meant to be played.

The Big Ad Break is now showing on FOXTEL. What is more I think SEVEN is worse.

Head leaves another double-ton on the table.

Different players but has a bit of Mark Waugh about him in the way he tends to find batting so easy at times, he needlessly throws away his wicket

 

[tribey]

Bethell bowling surprisingly effective left arm part-timers with that hairdo is giving me Michael Clarke vibes

Will Jacks will be relieved anyway. But surely we can still dig in here, and make 550-600. It'll be an opportunity missed if we don't.

Absolutely. Batting all the way down to Starc at 10. Would be criminal not to on this deck.

 

[FishingRick04]

As long as we make them.bowl.120 overs, they'll be stuffed after that

12 tons, 7 dismissals between 150-175.

Dude has an attention span threshold and danger zone once he gets past 150 which is incredible.

Indeed. Was hoping he’d have recharged the batteries a bit having made it to lunch, and with Smith anchoring him up the other end.

Cue the premeditated sweep shot to the part-timer with a first class average of 70 lol

I hope for the Bangladesh series we see an 11 and squad as follows;

Renshaw
Kellaway
McSweeney
Smith
Head
Webster
Carey
Nesser
Starc
J.Richardson/Boland
Boland/Murphy

Let Cam Green and Marnus head to England and make a bucket load of Runs abroad. Rest Hazelwood and Lyon, Rest Cummins.
