Re: Australia tours the British Isles (ODIs V Ire(1), Eng(5), v Pak(2 T20I, 2 Tests) No suprise to see that Ryan Harris has broken down again, been sent home and will miss the Pakistan series, was always a risk with a player with his history and lack of cricket

Re: Australia tours the British Isles (ODIs V Ire(1), Eng(5), v Pak(2 T20I, 2 Tests) Hmmm ODI average of 20, State average of 24 v State Average of 30 with the ball I wonder who to pick...Oh I know, dont worry about how good they bowl, lets just pick the player from NSW

Re: Australia tours the British Isles (ODIs V Ire(1), Eng(5), v Pak(2 T20I, 2 Tests) If anyone tries to claim there is no NSW bias now then they are simply FOS

Re: Australia tours the British Isles (ODIs V Ire(1), Eng(5), v Pak(2 T20I, 2 Tests) But Hussey was also an old man by the time he got to play in England, if he played in 2005 it may have been different

Re: Australia A v Sri Lanka A in QLD (2 x 4 day, 1 x T20, 3 x 50 over) Flattened out a bit today and Hilfy is getting a few more overs 200 runs and 5 wickets, Australia A should win but dont know about the Sri Lanka A batting depth, I would back most Aussie state sides to make the target...

Re: Australia tours the British Isles (ODIs V Ire(1), Eng(5), v Pak(2 T20I, 2 Tests) Whitey really loves playing in England, should be a lesson there for the selectors that those players who are on the fringe who have played succesfully for years in a country will do better than those who havent

Re: Double Bouncing balls the next big thing? I remember a game at the end of season 2 years ago I bowled a beautiful double bouncer that was a very bad effort at a wrong un, but it still spun back and bowled the batsman :D

Re: Australia tours the British Isles (ODIs V Ire(1), Eng(5), v Pak(2 T20I, 2 Tests) The problem is when you have Hopes and Watson in the top 7, one of the actual bowlers gets very underbowled as Ricky loves em both so they get plenty of overs, it throws out the balance a bit As for Marsh, I...

Re: Australia tours the British Isles (ODIs V Ire(1), Eng(5), v Pak(2 T20I, 2 Tests) I think he should play in place of Hopes but they seem pretty intent on batting Haddin up the order these days so it wont happen

Re: Aus A squads Well how does a team like Tasmania finish 2nd last when half their side are apparently the best players in the domestic comp? They must have a very shit other half...

Re: Howard Nomination Under Scrutiny What a joke, just upset because he told it like it is back when he was PM, didnt realise that being part of the ICC required you to be so perfect... Although not sure what he did to upset South Africa?

Re: Australia A v Sri Lanka A in QLD (2 x 4 day, 1 x T20, 3 x 50 over) Its actually 9/13 in the 4 day squad which is quite amazing given that Tasmania finished 2nd last

Re: Aus A squads It never matters how bad NSW are going or how well other states are, they still fill the side Bit strange that Victorias only representative is Andrew McDonald in the 4 day team, Finch is worth a shot there as well BTW Hastings is actually injured, recovering from...

Re: Australia A v Sri Lanka A in QLD (2 x 4 day, 1 x T20, 3 x 50 over) Nah maybe we can make that one into an Australia A team discussion thread, talk about who is in the 2nd best side in Australia I was going to put it there but then decided to just start series threads instead

Australia A v Sri Lanka A in QLD (2 x 4 day, 1 x T20, 3 x 50 over) Dont know if this belongs in International series, but Sri Lanka A is touring for this years A series in the top end Australia A Series 18-21 June Australia A v Sri Lanka A, Allan Border Field, Brisbane (Four-Day Match)...

Re: Australian T20I XI - Selection Thread Well now there is 2 captains so changing 1 of them wouldnt hurt, besides Australia has reguarly had 2 different keepers and 2 different captains for the 2 forms when the test incumbentent was nearing the end of their careers they groomed the next one at...

Re: Australian T20I XI - Selection Thread No, you stick with White and Paine as they dont play tests so they wont be rested at any stage Main thing against it is they dont like to fly in too many T20 speciallists, so it might require them adding Paine to the 50 over squads as cover to...
