Re: The future of Australia's wicket-keeping. Even when Healy was the keeper, we generally only played four bowlers, but there was an expectation of our bowlers that they'd be able to contribute with the bat from time to time. Think back to some of Paul Reifell's batting cameos to see what I...

Re: Pura Cup - South Australia vs New South Wales at Adelaide Oval Turned out to be a thriller in the end... not sure about the general standard though!

Re: CHAMPIONS TROPHY FINAL - West Indies vs. Australia at Mumbai!!! Hit and Sunk! West Indies all out for 138. One of the more spectacular declines we've seen in ODI cricket for a while. Bundy is tasting mighty fine so far...

Re: India vs Australia 1 for 101 after 14 overs. Everything proceeding nicely, runner and all. 8th Bundy down, considering calling for a second pizza... there's a lot of hard thinking involved in being a couch slob fanatic, oh yes there is! I thought 250 might be too much for us, given the...

Re: Moises Henriques Well I only agree in the sense that there's no one in the ODI line up that deserves to be dropped. I think he's quite good enough now. He should be the 'next guy in' though.

Re: India vs Australia Alright! McGrath gets Tendulkar, caught behind... this is back to the Glenn McGrath we all know and love. Great news with the Ashes in sight- Warne took five for 100 today as well, so the omens are good all round. 400 ODI dismissals for Gilly as well... woot! :D

India vs Australia India batting with fire, plenty of edges, nicks, difficult dropped catch going to hand, Lee and McGrath going well. In the Bundy Rum stakes, first one is going down nicely tyvm!:D

Re: Chumps Trophy: England vs West Indies Nah I'm sober tonight. I only drink when Australia play. Waugh Brothers crushing England at the Oval 2001 during the innings break... ahhh happy memories!

Re: Chumps Trophy: England vs West Indies Hey I'm paid as much for my comedy as I am for my forum posts. West Indies having fun... 31st over and they are 1 for 149. Gayle and Bravo cashing in.

Chumps Trophy: England vs West Indies West Indies won the toss and elected to bat. England have dropped Harmlesson.

Re: Moises Henriques Why wait?

Re: Moises Henriques I sometimes wish our selectors would be more bold- I'd send him with the World Cup party for the West Indies. Of course he's just a kid, but kids are great. They don't know fear and doubt, and not much is expected of them. Tendulkar was playing masterpieces of innings at...

Re: Champions Trophy - Pakistan vs South Africa at Chandigarh IM Chappell being controversial again... but while he has a case, Ntini's spell was outstanding, and if he hadn't have been taken off, he could have ended up with 7 or 8 wickets. Clearly the dominant figure in the match.

Re: Sheffield Shield- South Australia vs Victoria Victoria crawl to 6 for 385 declared, and then SA collapse to be 4 for 70 before Borgas and Lehmann stem the bleeding... currently 4 for 151. I tell ya there's not much to like about this game from a Redbacks point of view.

The future of Australia's wicket-keeping. I think that there is a fairly good chance that Adam Gilchrist might retire after the World Cup. If we win the Ashes and the World Cup, I'd be almost willing to bet money on it- he seems to be pretty sick of the travelling involved, and he's not getting...

Sheffield Sheild- NSW vs Queensland NSW have got the 2 points after a pretty interesting couple of days. After collapsing, a slogging 139 by Brad Haddin got NSW to 323, which proved to be just enough. Queensland were in strife at 5 for 107 before Hopes and Hartley turned things around. But once...

Sheffield Shield- South Australia vs Victoria Thank goodness I was too busy to go today. Back to the 60's scoring rate.....

Re: Champions Trophy - Pakistan vs South Africa at Chandigarh Cleazer is right on the money, SA do top the group. Pretty impressive demolition, aided by some limp batting by Pakistan. Not sure that they can go all the way though; depends on how they go on the dodgy pitches. Also, if West...

Re: Ford Ranger One Day Cup - Queensland vs New South Wales at the Gabba Andy Bichel may be an old hack but he's still got the goods... great effort by the Queenslanders. 10 points from two games sets up their season nicely.

Re: Champions Trophy: New Zealand vs Pakistan Bond back... game on...
