Cricket Season Thread

Travis is a match winner
When he came to the crease we were 3-75 scoring at 2.25 rpo
He puts on partnership of 159 scoring 103 himself scoring at 4.43 rpo
We need to really put the foot down and win this test !!
 
How good is watching cricket on the weekend when you can relax on the couch and not getting up every 5 mins and swearing “fark, fark fark” then walking away from the TV.
Hopefully 2025 is a similar feeling when watching the WTs
 
Smith has found his hands
Can thank Head for allowing him to take his time to find them !
We have put the foot down 0-42 in 5 overs after tea
 
Smith is one of the greats and I was really surprised to see so many calling for him to be dropped. He would go back to Shield and easily be the best player there. As todays innings has shown, he isnt as fluent as he used to be but his problem solving and hard work is 2nd to none. I would expect a solid but not spectacular next 12-18 months and he goes out on his own terms. Ideally you have Warner, Khawaja and Smith retire 12-18 months apart.

Yep. Sandpaper-gate still biases many people.

I don’t know if he has 12-18 months in him left but yes hopefully this score rekindles the fire somewhat
 
This series is a bit like our Head vs their Bumrah
Bumrah gets new ball and gets Smith ,followed by Marsh and now Head for 152 .Bumrah 5-61 and 17 wickets for series
Head 392 runs at 98 ave
Both superstars !

At this rate we are watching one of the greatest performances from a touring bowler ever. Im just enjoying it!
 
What on earth is Cummins tactics 10 runs off 18 balls why bat ahead of Starc
Would have thought giving our bowlers 30 mins at them might help us win the game
 
Our score 2 successes and 4 fails
McSweeney has no intent !
Here's a stat .In Heads last 7 centuries he " left " a total of 65 balls
In McSweeneys very short career he's "left " 77 balls
Konstas to open -couldnt do worse
