NSW Blues

Hazlewood, Starc, Cummins will all be rested from the WA game. Will probably be replaced by Copeland, Abbott, and one of Conway, Sams, or Mickey Edwards.

Also Copeland has been given leave to commentate the First Test so will miss the SA game.

Wouldn't be surprised if they go with 2 spinners. Henriques and Edwards in the top 6 provides the back up seamers.

That Copeland thing is weird as but understandable.

I think he's heading towards retirement.

What's the Optus pitch like?

Henriques hardly bowls any more

Takes everything from what I've seen. Quick.

Nice win but we'll miss the two bowlers who took 14 of the 20 wickets. SOK should be back for Lyon and I assume West must be the next fast bowler in line for Copeland, unless someone impressed in Futures League/grade cricket.

Serious question, is Nevill best XI anymore? Outside of the 72 n/o he's made 0, 3, 8, 8, 29, 8, 18 this season. Meanwhile Daniel Solway has 694 runs at 77 in FL and Grade cricket this season and Baxter Holt has 447 at 63 across the two whilst keeping.

Probably still the best gloveman and whether those two are ready is a question. No need to rush really. This is a young NSW side, we need some experience.

Maddinson today showing why the NSW decision to cut him was a dumb move.

 

[Phone]

equally no other state signing was dumb too. the whole maddinson saga over the last 2/3 seasons is just so weird and dumb and disappointing

Will Somerville just took 7 wickets against Pakistan in his test debut
