Seems to hopefully have broken through with his 142.

 

[Richie]

he’s going at a SR of 47 but the only boundary he’s hit for 27 overs was a single outside edge.

Thats what I meant about becalmed. Reluctant to play a forcing shot so plays it safe and rotates the strike.

Fair enough

He has just slogged Bashir in the 90s though haha.

 

[doc8176]

Very true

 

[Richie]

Hit Hard in the air under control over long on for 6 runs.

Now that is unleashing the shackles as he nears his century.

 

[doc8176]

100 for Ward

He’s in the Aus A squad too so hopefully he does well there as well.

 

[Richie]

Yes Tim. His second ton on the trot.

Arguably match winning.

Or at least match sealing.

 

[Richie]

Arguably match winning.

Definitely. One of two Aussies to ton up. Pom Ben McKinney fell short of triple figures.

 

[Richie]

I’m not fond of someone that struggles to convert to 100s at 3/4.

His 142 was at #3.

 

[Richie]

One of two Aussies to ton up.

Both on days with no live stream. You are a champion CA.

 

[doc8176]

Rain delay with 6 runs left to win aha

 

[Richie]

Our girls seal the Ashes with a thrilling win in first T20. Beth Mooney the star.

 

[Richie]

Probable starting 11 for the Ashes Test if Gardner is cleared.

Mooney (w/k)
Voll
Perry
Litchfield
McGrath (c)
Gardner
Sutherland
King
Wareham
Garth
Brown/Tayla Vlaeminck

#12 Emma de Broughe, #13 Maddy Darke, #14 Kate Peterson (my choices)

 

[Richie]

CAX1 second match squad: Nivethan Radhakrishnan, Tim Ward, Henry Hunt (c), Ryan Hackney, Jack Clayton, Hugo Burdon, Ryan Hicks (wk), Raf MacMillan, Sam Elliott, Tom Whitney, Charlie Anderson, Jem Ryan, Gabe Bell
Battle on between this pair for Ussies spot.

Reckon we shocked the Lankans with our attacking mindset, something we can thank our youngest Baggy Green, Sam Konstas for. Their spin attack had no answer as any ability to build then maintain pressure flew out the window. Usman with the biggest individual score by an Aussie in Sri Lanka and the biggest team score by us Aussies. A terrific debut century by Josh Inglis topped off the run fest.

 

[Richie]

Dumb scheduling had our girls playing same time as the guys and they also took the Pommie girls to the cleaners.

 

[Richie]

The third match of the day was the Aussie A v England Lions game. Kurtis Patterson with a 100.
What a long tail. Since when is Will Sutherland a top 6 bat.

Fastest ever century on debut from Inglis
