It might not show a whole lot in that match but I have only just started to focus on jump and gathering properly instead of just running through the crease. This is something our coach/team manager mentioned to me last week. It’s definitely something for training though. I’ll also add that my...

Forgot to post the stream link before my game again. Didn’t bat Bowl 2 overs at 2:03:38. Come back on at 2:39:00 and bowl my last 2. Took 1-12(4) defending 124, easily the best I’ve bowled in a cricket match. Started off with the wind blowing into the right hander, wasn’t getting it to...

Oh it’s scheduled after the first test and it’s as a means for India to practice with the pink ball.

Yeah I thought there was too. Maybe cricket.com.au just haven’t uploaded it to their matches. They’ve definitely done that before.

Yeah I think that’s what I would have meant my bad. Head is difficult, similar boat to Maxwell, he can just switch on and be incredible for us very quickly. Although tbh his recent LOI form does give me some hope that he’ll be better in tests again. One thing I’ve noticed between when he’s...

I bat worse the lower I am down the order haha. I’m trying to get a game in the top 6 for our One day 5 team.

Yeah I changed the order of my load up slightly and I’m definitely flowing through the crease a lot better. It’s more a matter of getting used to it for now. I’m honestly more of a longer format batsman, I need a bit of time to work in and can rotate the strike well. The shot I got out to was...

Not that I’m aware of no.

Yeah I think I posted the the link in the sub-state thread. Shit tip of a pitch, we restricted them to 130 with the ball not misbehaving much. They bowled, supposedly with a cheaper ball and it started falling apart in the 8th over which meant but was rolling.

My colts game in 6 minutes.

I might be biased but I honestly rate Inglis higher than Webster as a pure bat. Although Webster being an allrounder is a huge plus. Konstas’s knock was great but his other dismissals show he isn’t quite ready for the Aussie team.

https://www.cricket.com.au/news/4165555 McSweeney has been selected in the test squad. Inglis has also been selected, presumably as a back up wicketkeeper and middle order bat given his fine form in the shield.

Everyone left for the rain delay/lunch break. Should slowly come back now.

McSweeneys is definitely a fair bit lower, the higher camera angle for the photo makes it look higher. I really like his technique, it looks very compact. Marnus definitely has struggled against proper fast bowling before. McSweeney does have that lower backlift and seems to get forward very...

Yeah, very similar techniques though.

Guess which one is Labuschagne and which one is McSweeney: And again:

Nah my stance is pretty conventional

Just had centre wicket practice with a bunch of first grade lads and only got out once. Nailed a cover drive off one of the staple bowlers in the side, left arm pacer. I think I’m pretty good, I play the ball very late and have a decent eye. My main issues are sometimes not taking a big enough...

https://www.cricket.com.au/news/4163592 McSweeney is opening the batting for the 2nd A match. Along with Harris, who although I don’t want him in the side, is probably our 2nd best candidate. Bancroft is horribly out of form and Konstas looked like he didn’t have the right mindset with how he...
