Starc swinging it around corners and cranking it up above 145kmh

Starc beat the inside edge on I think every ball that over, just needs to hit the stumps

Currently in Meekatharra on my way up to Karijini for a Uni field trip so have data for a bit.

Only just starting watching the last 30 minutes, 60 overs in and it’s still hopping around corners. Makes Smith and Green’s innings very impressive.

Still winter T20s. Mostly been focusing on batting but bowl an over here or there. I find it hard to bowl spin in a lot of the games because the ball gets wet and slippery. Game 2 weeks ago I bowled the last over of the innings against a very good batsman that plays for my summer club. I only...

Yeah Smith just looked completely class. Green was very gritty, left well and put away the cover drive for a bit after it almost got him in trouble. He got the return for it by making a 50 and also faced the 2nd most balls of any innings this series (123) behind Khawaja in the first innings of...

Very gritty innings from Green, good to see him face a ton of balls after a pretty soft start to his tenure at 3. He looked like a number 3 bat last night.

So I don’t know if I said it on here but my club has been providing some coaching sessions for colts players in the off season. Apart from immediate technical changes that immensely helped me, my main hurdle has been over-balancing when playing down the ground. I’ve been doing exercises like...

I don’t think this is the answer. He needs to keep an openers mentality, but he needs to just get more experience in the shield against bowlers like Boland that WILL expose his weakness past his inside edge. Also think a county experience will be great for him.

More than enough I think. Konstas and especially Green both looked better despite mediocre returns. More confident.

Still only “accused” at this stage I think.

Oh wtf that’s disgusting

Genuinely could be as simple as making a decent batting track so our batsmen can get some confidence. Even though they’ve been pretty bad they’ve batted on some pretty bowler friendly pitches.

Everyone is batting like they’ve been told to play a certain way that is nothing like how they usually play, and they suck at it. Could have something to do with playing a No. 4 at 3 and a No. 7 at 4.

Ok so it’s confirmed, they’ve gone with: Khawaja Konstas Green Inglis Head They mentioned they want stability and they think Green can be a long term number 3. I agree.

I don’t like having Inglis at 3 but I don’t see many better options with the XI. Only other thing could be: Khawaja Konstas Green Head Inglis Carey Webster I’d also rather have Green at 4, but not anymore than having Head at 3. Maybe Inglis at 3 is the right call but he hasn’t batted any...

Oh it wasn’t aha, I thought you just meant have a squiz at the score or something [emoji28]

Teague is smashing it in premier cricket as usual. Douwtjie Hoogenboezem (can’t find how old he is but early 20s by the sound of it) has been doing well for Fremantle cc and has just signed with South Australia for 25/26 Sheffield shield. Which is frankly hilarious for WA. Lochie Hardy (25yo)...

Chandrasinghe seems far more limited than Kellaway to my eye. Kellaway looked very airtight batting at the end of the shield season and far less bogged down as he used to be. Teague Wyllie would be about the only one I can think of and he has some pretty obvious issues.
