4th Test Border Gavaskar Trophy December 26-30 1000hrs @ the MCG

[The King!]

Having to play a dud like Marsh maybe makes people realise Watson was better than they thought

Do you ever rest mate.

Well it’s a day off for me- my Xmas is Jan 7 as you know lol

If people in this house keep their evil eyes on the pav there's going to be some utter carnage in this dwelling.

We are not picking two new guys in a top 6, it’s just not happening not against Bumrah and co. Sri Lanka maybe but definitely not India. You can want it till you are blue it won’t happen and rightly so way too big a gamble.

Well we are going in with 5 batsman and 4 bowlers at the moment the way it is. Seems pretty good for team balance and options for the captain when things go amiss.

We’d go in with the same if the option is Webster. He’s not Green. I get it we miss Green we would all love him in but it’s not possible. We can always bowl Head a bit more anyway and never know Captain might win a toss

Who knows how far off he is from Green, but he is better than what we have at the moment.

Rookie or not, he is a way better option then Marsh at 6 given his current "form".

Agree to disagree and moving on.

 

[Matrix10]

Yes let’s bring in an opener and not open the bloke no just no. Konstas is an opener and Inglis is NOT a test no3 he’d be barely a no5 and that’s generous he averages 30 ish or whatever it is.

Inglis is not test cricket standard full stop

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Inglis is not test cricket standard full stop

He might be but my preference is not playing two keepers period. Now we go to SL and that’s a different discussion where you need guys who genuinely play spin well

Warnie's best Tests on Fox Cricket now. Currently showing the 1994 Brisbane Test. Graham Gooch somehow makes 50, playing some class shots despite looking at least 40 years old.

That's because Gooch was 41.

52 minutes of Warnie bowling from that game.

This Warnie Legacy on Fox is a Xmas tradition I can get around. 10 hours, yes please!

I would have preferred it if they condensed it into Warnie highlights only.

didn't even need to open the video to know that it's a robelinda classic

Is Marsh definitely playing? I think best to give him a rest.

 

[western royboy]

Almost the only bloke you'd think long and hard about batting at 10 over Jim Higgs.

Jimmy definitely walks out ahead of Bob

 

[CakeEater]

Jimmy definitely walks out ahead of Bob

Would he walk out in front of Bruce Reid?

 

[LukeParkerno1]

The reality is without Green fit we are gambling whoever we pick at 6

 

[freo_leo29]

Is Marsh definitely playing? I think best to give him a rest.

Yeah, confirmed to play

2 changes

Boland and Konstas for Hazlewood and McSweeney

 

[western royboy]

Would he walk out in front of Bruce Reid?

Negative

 

[Borisdog]

Jimmy definitely walks out ahead of Bob

I'm not convinced.

Jimmy was genuinely shocking. He looked like he was shitting himself just walking out there.

But both were very, very ordinary. Very.

Neither at NZ Chris Martin ordinariness levels

You clearly haven’t seen them bat…these blokes were genuine ferrets…they went in after the rabbits

Chris Martin would’ve been a candidate for Jim and Bob’s batting coach, such was his ability with the willow in relation to theirs.

Ferret keepers.

After the ferrets are finished.

Jimmy for me, man he was terrible.
