Another young bloke having issues with "stress"?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keith_Miller

Away from cricket, Miller was also a successful Australian rules footballer. He played for St Kilda and was selected to represent the Victorian state team. He played 50 games for St Kilda, for whom he kicked eight goals in one game against North Melbourne, during 1941.[7]

Well we know who took out the 1941 Kerridge then.

He would have starred at AFL. The bloke was good at everything and didn't take it too seriously.

Showing up to the test match tomorrow Keith?

Yes, but I might be a little late for the warm up. I'm heading off to the races, then i'll slip over to a cocktail party, then spend the night with a royal princess.

We really are desperately light on for openers at the moment. I wouldn't get Bancroft to open a tin of baked beans for me.

Its very much an indication of how poor the other candidates are at the moment, Bancroft has been good for WA for a while now, he will come through with a big score soon

Like having Burns in though, he really deserves a chance and Harris needs time to work on why he kept getting out. Figure they might rotate players unless someone really solidifies their position

Have you seen Bancroft's numbers since coming back from the Ashes? They are pathetic. For an opening batsman his technique is atrocious.

 

[Hojuman]

Don't think Burns would have got the gig if anywhere else but the Gabba.

That's still more runs than Warner made in Ashes!!!!

Doolan just plundered back to back big hundreds. Not sure a 49 from Bancroft supersedes that.

Seriously, how do you discover that that bowling action works for you?

Ahhhhhh Bushrangers. Lose by 1 run !

Handscomb very stiff when the curse of #87 saw him out to a bloody ripper catch

"Luckily for you Joe, we've got wind that Pakistan's gameplan will be 'throw'. You wouldn't get near the squad if we heard they were turning up in 'go' mode".

Looked like a green top on the news last night and I wouldn't trust our batsman on that thing.
Pattinson's ability to swing the ball would've been ideal with Cummins at the other end.

Be greener tomorrow l expect. Starc should be chomping at the bit after playing just one ashes test.

 

[Hojuman]

Actually don't mind the Paki's. Always played great cricket when on.
Shame about their home situation.

Most important question of all, who are the Pakistani Bookies favouring ?

Was gunna post on here we are 0 / 196 and Warner about to ton, but as soon as l do that we'll lose a wicket.

If I looked up "flat track bully" in the dictionary, I would fully expect to see a picture of David Warner.
If the dictionary people were doing their jobs properly.
