    Yeah there’s usually a reason you don’t see very many super young fast bowlers in professional cricket, just way too much stress on the body.

    There’s always the people I play my colts games with. There’s some promising players in there. Not sure how well received this idea would be though.

    Some of the Aussies in the leg spin thread might be keen. I know “Leggy88” is younger than me so he’d possibly be playing colts.

    Oh ok, his poor recent form probably clouded my memory of him.

    I like Ward, just couldn’t convert 20-30s into actual scores. Big shame.

    I thought Connolly has looked very good in the limited opportunities he’s had at first class level. He’s averaging 54 in first class cricket. Davies is averaging 51.68 although he’s a bit more of a Head kind of player with a looser technique.

    Imo the playing XI should be: Konstas Bancroft McSweeney Davies Connolly Webster Peirson Neser Murphy Buckingham Last pick is tough between O’Neill, Steketee and McAndrew

    I honestly just think we’re made of glass over here. Not sure why, maybe inbreeding. We are pretty isolated. Thankfully I’m yet to have a serious injury, touch wood.

    Respect for calling them the Warriors. His issue is that WA have Jhye Richardson, Joel Paris, Lance Morris and Cam Gannon in the way. I rate him more than Gannon, but apparently he’s at the bottom of the pecking order for some reason. Seems to pick up wickets at a pretty similar rate...

    Seems to have a little bit of a hot head too which isn’t a bad thing. Although he’s gotten himself into a bit of trouble following through intentionally into batsmen running between wickets in grade matches. Can be a little bit of a dickhead but he has a very good Aus A record so wouldn’t mind...

    It seems to be an issue with a lot of South Australian bowlers, other than Jordan Buckingham who I do really rate. Nathan McAndrew also, but I don’t rate him much for some inexplicable reason. With Johnson, because he’s not a medium pacer that’d completely lack that killer blow. I honestly...

    Honestly I don’t see him changing that view. This is his first back injury since before he made his international debut. The fact he’s going straight to this surgery is a sign that he does want to keep bowling.

    Another thing that concerned me when he played shield was while he did exceptionally to pick up 2 first innings 7 wicket hauls, both times he then failed to take a single wicket in the second innings.

    He’s been directly quoted saying he wants to be a genuine allrounder and will only consider dropping bowling right at the end of his career.

    Cameron Green has officially decided to have surgery on his back. So he’ll probably be out of the side at least for the summer. The cricket.com.au article states he has a defect in his spine that’s contributing to the stress fracture which sounds very interesting. I definitely think he’s made...

    Yeah T20s are fun and I like having to adapt and change things up. But bowling more than 2-4 overs and being able to set someone up sounds great.

    No that’s Lance Morris. Johnson is a left armer that actually bowls the same pace anyway. Johnson is already 28.

    There’s regular Saturday senior cricket that plays one day and two day cricket. Never played a 2 dayer before but I reckon I’d really enjoy it so I’m aiming to play that.
