Starc played a bit lately and bowling well re 2-11 off 4 overs
Cummings hasn't played in months and looks a bit rusty
Abbott's fielding awful

 

[Stevec]

Starc 10 overs 3-33 Pakistan 7-148 after 37 overs
Missing 3 stars no problem apparently
We have a lot a depth !

 

[Tigerwould]

Pak all out 203 in the 46th over

 

[jadtiger]

Both our openers gone early,2-28

 

[Stevec]

JFM batting idiotic bang bang out Short goes for 1
Smith been scratchy of late
Lot depends on Inglis and Marnus

 

[Stevec]

Smith has "found his hands and Inglis batting well as usual
Inglis is one of the best 6 batsman in Australia and should be in the test side
Alls well

Smith is certainly looking the best he has in quite a long time and Inglis is certainly making a strong claim for the games that count

Sure enough the kiss of death strikes

 

[Buttface]

We need 53 with 4 wickets in hand.

 

[Stevec]

JFM fail Short fail Hardie fail ,Maxxy fail Abbott 4 off 13 seems unable to score
Only Smith 44 and Inglis 49 ok throw in Zampa went for 64 off his 10 overs
We are full of rust !
How about pick our best team which includes Head and Marsh and Hazelwood

 

[Buttface]

8 runs, 2 wickets.

 

[Buttface]

Patty brings it home with the bat.

 

[Stevec]

Capt Pat didn't again !!

 

[happy_tiger]

Patty brings it home with the bat.

Again ....he is a clutch batsmen

 

[Stevec]

Smith ,Inglis Starc all great games but Cummings is a match winner
Starc gets MOM but for me without Cummings knock we lose

Didn't take them long to wheel out Warner as a "commentator". Must be a Foxtel two-for-one deal after his wife randomly showed up with a microphone at an NRL game. Already dreading the possibility of Warner and Clarke teaming up for a Test so they can talk about their favourite topic (themselves) for five days straight.

It’s a pre requisite for all cricket commentators.

Candice Warner has been employed by Fox Sports for years .Regular on the back page and I think other spots .
David Warner didn't sit on the fence when asked about who should open with Kwajaja ?
Clearly stating McSweeney and maybe Konstas to replace Ussie in 6 months or a year when he steps down .Gave little support to Harris and Zero to Bancroft
Keep in mind he's now paid to voice his opinion so I guess he can .

I wonder how friendly Bancroft is with Warner?

I wonder how friendly Bancroft is with Warner?

I would guess not very ! Remember a few weeks ago I mentioned an interview Bancroft gave about a year after sandpapergate where he dropped a tiny bit of innuendo hinting our 3 quicks maybe involved .My thoughts at the time was how unnecessary! Also can't help him back in the team without friction .Cant remember exact words its just vague memory
