3rd Test Border Gavaskar Trophy December 14-18 1050hrs @ The Gabba

Ussie won't be gone this summer. Chgannel 7 has signed his wife up.

The commercial and sporting sides of cricket are irretrievably intertwined these days.

And the signing is one of the great defensive plays by his management team along with appearing in the KFC ad.

Happy to see Konstas get a go but, jeepers, a bit harsh on McSweeney!

Ussie has done the Warner approach and named his departure date. Basically says dare you to drop me.

Interesting to see how it plays out. Lot probably rests on If we win the series.

IIRC the next tour is Sri Lanka, if available I would bet Uzzie is picked for that.

Not really, he had one acceptable (not great) score in six and has had one of the statistically poorest starts to his career. Now, we all know the mitigating factors, but it is what it is. For those complaining about more experienced players getting more leeway, that's what happens when you have runs on the board. I didn't hate the idea of dropping Labs and putting McSweeney at three, but if I'm honest, I don't think it would make much difference in the next game. Labs is probably a marginally higher chance of scoring than McSweeney is.

It’s ok, todays puff piece is that Konstas is not overawed by facing Bumrah, because Konstas has a plan.

Great thinking, why didn’t anyone else think of that?

Must be a rigged bat flip.

I’ll decide after the toss or 8 cans whichever occurs first

Finally dug deep and found out the hidden story behind Konstas’ rapid ascension to the Baggy Green.

Apparently, the ACB was concerned because Konstas’ was eligible for overseas selection.
