IMHO, packing order: Burns, Head, Khawaja, Cowan
Cricket Season Thread
- Thread starter citizen_cub
- Start date
Burns should also continue to get a run.
Anyone who is showing promise needs to be given ten Tests to get in the groove. Tugger struggled when he first started out and he turned out fine. Players need to be given time to prove themselves without the dagger hanging over their heads.
Even Smith only got five Tests to start off with, scoring 259 @ 28.8 and was cast off into the wilderness for another two years.

I would just pick NSW 1-11…QLD can have 12th man duties at the Gabba S.A Adelaide Vic at the G and so forth and so on...Should prove to much for the Kiwis and Windies...

Not sold on Burns yet, only averaged about 40 for about 6 years….
It would never happen, but Maxxie Klinger is a run scoring machine and has been for about 4 years, given all the departures, He could be very handy coming in
The amount of cricket they play these days, he could come in for 3 or 4 years and play 40 tests.
If they go young I like Bancroft, punching out consistent runs for 18 months now.
First Test starts tomorrow,,,,wow that crept up…
Go Baggy Greens..give it to the Black Caps...

Anyone remember 30 years ago …......

Hopefully we rout the Kiwis. Given the godawful year with the Tigers, I've been rewarded with Sydney FC on top of the ladder, Man U in contention and the Bengals 7-0.
Is Burns on his home pitch….Looks like he's never played there before.....going alright now...
Good bowling by NZ early ...Aussies handled it well starting to get on top...
