Deteriated?

He was shit 5 years ago, and is now officially a disgrace.

If he had one iota of self respect, he would give it away.

The ICC could announce it via Twitter.

...just sayin

Channel 9 should have the Benny Hill music ready to roll for any catching opportunity off Mitchell Starc, Voges yesterday, and Hazlewood today absolutely worthy of it

About time someone gets De Kock out.

Expecting De Kock to pull mid wicket

What exactly does Lyon do in this team again?

 

[GarnerSmash]

Hes taken 213 wickets.

The issue with this team is that none of them are capable to test level consistency. The Saffas have schooled them in this innings.

 

[Gasometer]

First half of game resembles North first half of 2016.

Second half I am expecting a skittling similar to North second half of 2016.

Nothing when you've got a dick of captain not giving him a bowl. Lyon is a very good bowler.

We'll be all out for 150.

De Kock was certainly a handful.

No.

Lyon looked decent on evening 2, shocking captaincy to not bowl him before lunch on day 3. He bowled very poorly when he did get a chance on day 3 though. At Perth as a spinner you need to be able to drift the ball, and Lyon was gun-barrel straight. Duminy has looked better in 2 overs than Lyon in 20 overs.

 

[SpiderBurton22]

Wow, that run out bought back memories of Jonty Rhodes.

 

[Mav]

and here comes the collapse.

 

[SpiderBurton22]

Mentally weak is what our batsmen are.

Shhhhh.......

Voges fails when the going is tough again. Averages 10 in 4th innings. But he averages 100+ against WI

His last test you would think.

Haven't they named the same 12 for Hobart?

 

[archereleven]

Test cricket is in peril atm

There needs to be a top 4 and a bottom 4 where the bottom and top teams(or bottom 2/top 2) respectively swap every year.

To many AUS v ZIM, SA V WI, IND V BAN etc etc

5 days is still the right length to play over

The Aussies have already committed to the same 12 lol So flipping predictable are these these clowns...

Oh yeah....
