Couple of 40s though as well this season. Opening is cooked in Australia so any average over 40 over two seasons is pretty exciting for a 22 year old. Im bringing the train into station, get onboard.

IMO his teammate Harry Dixon is more exciting. If they had DRS for that shield game noone would be talking about him (Kellaway), from memory he was less than 30 when got that shockingly favourable LBW decision.

Losing a bit of momentum in this semi-final innings with wickets falling now but still looking at a more than competitive score at 6/271 with 8 overs to go.

India scored 340 at this ground a week ago, NZ bowled them out with an over spare too.

They can hit 350.

Good partnership this one though between Gardner and Garth. 51 off 36 balls.

 

[stax on the mull]

3/3 in the last over. 4/7 in the last 9 balls after Gardner hit 2 x 6's at the start of the 49th over. 10/338 off 49.5.

Track looks over prepared. India no chance, going to sleep.

Note I have been wrong occasionally.

It's frustrating Kayo doesn't showcase the women's world cup. Prime being one of the few I don't have/can scab off friends.

Amazon bought the rights to all World Cups

ICC sold em off, noone else had a say

edit: It appears Amazon have actually removed the paywall for the Women's world cup though, so you should be able to watch without subscribing

I think I know who to blame

 

[stax on the mull]

Needed that wicket.

 

[stax on the mull]

This will be the record run chase that Australia had previously achieved against India in the last match they played against each other, though they've just lost a wicket. 29 off 24 balls needed 5/310.

To head down to the WACA or not

Did you end up heading down? All 3 results still in play.

Yeah went down, looking out of reach for WA though now

Insane finish to game 6, LA winning on a double

 

[largebus]

Ohtani starting game 7 on short rest when he fell apart in game 4 is an interesting choice, you'd think he'll have an extremely short leash

 

[Spirit Level]

Enthralling world series, limited overs cricket right up until the Ashes and big bash starting soon, football season in full swing, NHL and NFL going on.

Off season isn't so bad tbh

You guessed right. You would have thought the Blue Jays would have got it done at home. But this Dodgers team has plenty of character as well as big payroll stars.

 

[largebus]

Jays fans will be wanting this Will Smith right now

God I hate the ****ing West.

Since I've started working back in the city I've had the misfortune of that shit rag being available in the kitchen and having nothing to do while my lunch is cooking.

Ragging on the Perth Bears for 2 days straight now. It's objectively a great thing for WA (the state they apparently care about) yet are using it to score points against the political party they happen to not side with.

Time for that embarrassment to go bust.

 

[Taylor]

If Stokes still owns the west then they are quite chummy with the ALP here, getting to skip quarantine during covid to attend an ALP event of all things.

 

[largebus]

They also praise Big Nose Basil every day.

It's nothing to do with political party, its the fact that Stokes pays billions for broadcasting rights to the NRL's biggest competitor.
It's why 7 and 9 attack the sokkah when theres trouble at an A league game, although now 9 has rights to EPL they've started running puff pieces on 60 minutes.

I think there are better things to spend that much taxpayers money on than a sporting body worth billions already and a sport that has very little grassroots in WA but you never saw them writing this about Optus or the Tassie stadium

 

[Spirit Level]

Speaking of taxpayers money, any chance we can get some proper underground metro lines? Instead of consistently repairing roads which don't need to be repaired.

This is the state that builds extra lanes on the highway covering some of the most desirable real estate along the river foreshore but didn't want to build a tunnel to clear trucks out of the suburb built around a port because it might impact a swamp.

Show me how The West is a liberal paper without telling me.

****ing joke that The West is an embodiment of media in WA. Absolute joke and embarrassment. But then again, The West is owned by Kerry Stokes. He loves his West Coast Eagles and AFL.
