Bancroft has scored 261 runs so far this season from 7 innings

251 have come in 3 of those

Needs to work on his consistency

What is the point of South Australian cricket? Honestly.

To be fair, they're at least guaranteed a top 6 finish every year....

 

[Peter Doherty]

Selectors will look at Hunt before they go back to Bancroft.

Bancroft is done.

 

[corbies]

I know it's a different game, but I can't find the Qld v Vic match thread. I just want to say what sort of form is Neser in right now? Currently has 23 wickets @ 11.22 and a batting average of 47.00 with a century and a 50.

Just for future reference I think the reason you're struggling to find a few threads is that you have Eth-dog on ignore and he starts alot of the match threads. You cant view threads a poster starts if you have them on ignore unless you untick that box when you put them on ignore.

True.

10 6th place finishes from the last 13 seasons shows something is majorly broken down there.

Sounds like Cullen Bailey.

Yes, I watched Cullen as a junior, had a bit to do with him over a number of years, very intelligent young man who showed signs of maybe being the heir apparent to Shane Warne. Lovely relaxed flowing action, similar to that of Richie Benaud. I recall one night I was in the area, so I dropped in to catch up with some people.

Cullen just happened to be in the nets, so I went over to watch him bowl. He'd pretty much lost it. Strolling up to the line, stopping on the crease. There was no push through, no flight, nothing. Very sad to see, and I wondered what in hell they'd done to him.

Tidy* partnership here - nearly top 10 all time for WA


*understatement

 

[Adelaide Hawk]

A wicket!!!! We're starting to rip through them now

WA Cricket needs a clean out

 

[Wce17]

Why aren’t WA pushing the game ahead. Plenty of wickets in hand. Annoying

 

[Westend]

time to up the scoring rate lads

 

[Wce17]

WA trying there best to stuff this up.

Yes, I was thinking the same thing. Maybe when Whiteman gets his 200 they'll go for it.

Edit: Oops, just got him out

 

[Westend]

This should suit Phillippe down to a tee

quick runs needed

 

[Westend]

Sigh another failure for Phillipe

having a nightmare of a shield season...his first class form is just terrible

 

[eth-dog]

Philippe is lucky Inglis isn't available next game.

 

[Westend]

Thought he would of scored runs today...perfect opportunity for him to score quickly

for someone with his talent he is just wasting it

 

[Carbine Chaos]

Pretty average stuff today from WA.

He might just be a white ball cricketer.

 

[Westend]

He might just be a white ball cricketer.

So much talent thought he would kicking on in the shield this year

 

[Westend]

Pretty average stuff today from WA.

yeah

they have been told to go the tonk...slow this morning

bat for 10/15 after tea have a go then put them in

 

[Adelaide Hawk]

He might just be a white ball cricketer.

He was doing well for the first half of last season but tapered off in the final 3 or 4 games and this season seems to have picked up where he left off.

 

[2notepockets]

He might just be a white ball cricketer.

Should be batting up the order in this line up imo, especially as he's not keeping.

 

[The Falcon Strike]

Manenti looks so unthreatening

Doesn’t even look the type to bowl tightly either

Lol
