Banter The No Dazzlering Big Cricket Thread

[Dazzler9]

Hmm...6 5 wickets in hand, 60 50 odd runs behind. Suspect we cough up a first innings lead at Bellerive this morning.

Aaron Hardie has really fallen away the last few years after his big breakout in that shield final

He bowled pretty well I think in Tassies innings but he won't make it to the next level on the back of his bowling alone.

He just can't seem to make any runs. It's contagious at the WACA it seems. To be fair, it wasn't a terrible nut that got him today.

Injury and drifting in and out of white balls squad has not helped. Needs a good run at shield cricket IMO

 

[Dazzler9]

Best outcome in the Shield game might be to get rolled fairly quickly from here and make use of the deck before it flattens into a road.

 

[Ilkka Sinisalo]

Lots of starts but nobody able to carry on and make a good score.

Weatherald playing himself into an Ashes spot here

Weatherald quietly building the best openers resume to start the summer.

Webster massively unlucky, but yeah, agreed.

Webster massively unlucky, but yeah, agreed.

If he comes back in for Tassie and scores runs, I could see Marnus open, Green 3 and him at 6, but feels like he'll be the unlucky one squeezed out. Every chance he's in mid series if someone's struggling though.

 

[RookiePick]

Opened an end in the shield match finally. Need to get on a roll here.

Happy to see the result of the next shield game before locking anything in.

I think the selectors will be keen to keep Webster in unless the door is completely beaten down, given our bowling stocks are severely weakened.

I could see them trying Marnus to open, Green 3 for sure.

Yeah if Greeny can't bowl a lot it definitely helps Webster's case.

Unless Marn wants to roll out his mediums again.

Late day 5, Poms just need to not do anything dumb to draw the test...

Marn takes 5/80 off 4 overs to win us the test.

 

[Dazzler9]

Marnus with B2B Shield tons and 4 from his last 5 digs in all formats. I'm glad to see it, hope he's getting back to his best. We need him.

Weatherald winkled out on 94, pulling to deep square. Not shabby at near a run a ball.

 

[ioppolo]

To think Weatherald couldn't even get a game for Tassie season before last.

 

[Ilkka Sinisalo]

Tassie probably only need about 30 more and then they could comfortably declare.

 

[RookiePick]

Aussie girls will be pretty disappointed walking away with anything less than the World Cup here. Dominating performance overnight to lock in their semi-final spot. Powered by a punishing century from Alyssa - gee the seed is strong with those Healy genetics.

 

[Westend]

three quick wickets good to see

kelly another 5 wicket haul

 

[RookiePick]

Kelly 6-fer with Hardie taking a sharp chance in the gully!

Hopefully we can make a game of it and not fold up meekly again.

 

[Dazzler9]

Chasing 259 on a day 3 Tassie wicket. If we can't do this, I'm calling season over.
