Re: Country Week 2009/2010
That explains the mex's message then. He made 0 in the first and 2 in the second innings, apparently they were just meant to go for the slog for 2 overs.
Re: Australian Best Test Side
Alright then, let's make this thread a little more interesting then. If you think you can't compare for more than the 10 years you've specified, pick a few sides of the decade. Australian Team of the 00's 90's 80's 70's etc if you want, and we can work from there.
Re: Country Week 2009/2010
Geelong had Warnambool at 4-75 off 25 at drinks when i left earlier. Jarran Cook and Scowny opened the bowling, looked like they were bowling pretty well, Scowny maybe a bit uncomfortable bowling into the wind and uphill. Poor bald fella. Anyway, first wicket was a...
Re: Who will win the Allan Border Medal?
I'm more disgusted that the event isn;t telecast until 12-30am on Tueday morning. Cricket's "Night of Nights" as it was built up to be when it was first introduced has completely been shun to the side. There is no way this would ever happen to the...
Re: Australian Best Test Side
Good thread. I know you said after World War 2, but I'm going to throw other names into mine as well, and we'll see how we go.
Trumper
Ponsford
Bradman
Ponting
Border
G.Chappell
Gilchrist
Miller
Warne
Lillee
McGrath
Stiff: S.Waugh, Hayden, Thomson...
Re: Bring back australia a?
Dependant on fitness really. 3 of Australia's best bowlers are injured atm in Brett Lee, Stuart Clark and Ben Hilfenhaus, so if the concept was introduced when they were fit they would be in either of the two sides.
Re: Australian Test XI - Selection Thread
So your side would read
Watson, Hughes, Katich, Hussey, Clarke, Ponting, Haddin, Johnson, Hauritz, Siddle, Bollinger?
Seems fine to me, I for one would like to see Ponting move down the order, at least change things up a bit and see if it...
Re: Bring back australia a?
Really depends on what type of match you are going to see between Australia and Australia A. A test match or four day style match you would probably have the two sides as follows (opinion only)
Katich, Watson, Ponting, M.Hussey, Clarke, North, Haddin, Johnson...
Re: GCA Twenty Competition & vBookie
Should be very interesting.
Our side in no order is col, sam, mitch, shane, danny, me, jase stewart, scowny, marco, kingy, tim ferg
Re: Ricky Ponting
Notice Ponting's first two pull shots today. Nothing millionaire about them, just got the bat over them, and made sure they were straight into the ground. That's all I wanted out of him rather than trying to hit it for 6 first ball. Thank-you Punter
Moises Henriques
How good to people thing this bloke is going to be? He is 22 years old, and in the absence of the Australian representatives, he is the captain of New South Wales. I personally could see him breaking through in the next 5 years and becoming one of the world's best all rounders...
Re: Bring back australia a?
Australia A, I used to love the concept, and love watching the games between Australia and Australia A. It'd be good now because there are so many young blokes who are pushing for those spots in the main test and one day sides, but have only played domestically and...
Ricky Ponting
Another innings another millionaire pull shot, and another Ponting dismissal. The amount of times I have watched this man bat in recent times, and he has gone out caught to that pull shot is disgusting, especially early in his innings when his side needs to consolidate after...
Re: Watson - Love him or hate him?
how did i know you would have started this thread a4e? maybe all those maths classes were you constantly bagged him had something to do with it.
anyway, i am a watson lover, because he simply could easily be one of the best all rounders in the world. you...
Re: Geelong Cricket Chat 09/10
that makes one of us then. cut him some slack i suppose, he realised that kingy's real name was shaun not stuart so it must have fogged him a bit
