Yep add Stoinis to that list
AJ Tye is pathetic. Never gets his line and length right. He’s hopeless under pressure and keeps costing us games. Turned a winning position into a losing one in an over.
Australia blowing it big time. Wides, no balls. Not a single yorker in sight. Zampa bowled us to a strong position and then Tye and Stoinis put up rubbish.
We won..Stonis on a hat trick

Good finish
Stoinis finally gets it semi right helped by a Maxwell screamer. Everyone did okay. Except Tye.

It just staggers me. So many short balls angled down leg by bowlers who are supposed to be the best in the country. I have never seen Australian cricket so poor.
I saw a TV interview with Stoinos the other day. He walked out of a million dollar house and drove a Range Rover SUV. What’s he done? He’s average yet is living the dream. We have bog average cricketers being paid huge money because occasionally they can hit a ball into the grand stand.
I’ve loved and played cricket my whole life. I’m over it - we have ruined Australian cricket. Give me 11 blokes who will practice their art and perform in the test arena. That’s cricket. Not these pretenders that swing a bat and hope it connects.
Rant over ….... for now!!

Who cares about 20/20\. It’s like complaining about the Tigers losing a 9’s match. The real stuff starts next week, the Test series.

I care because it is destroying a generation of Australian cricketers.

were you guys thinking the same thing when ODIs started?
without t20, cricket dies. No one has time and effort to stand in the heat for 5 days and 30% of the time not even get a result. the world has moved past that.

At that's why the world has turned to crap…
Test Cricket rules..some of the best games I've ever witnessed have been no results as you call them....

or that our lives are busier, we are making ourselves more productive and we just don't have the time to sit in front of the tele or at a cricket ground for 8 hours straight player batting at 2 runs an over for 90 overs.
most of the test matches are playing on a weekday between 10am-6pm. Test cricket by itself isn't gonna survive.
