Important match for the Aussies to win up at the Gabba... before they have to hit the road for an Away match on Boxing Day!

Gabba a drop in pitch?

 

[Sillygit]

so... with all this very specific Starc hype up, is he gunna retire or something?

 

[Nate7]

If they bring Boland back for the Melbourne test we can level up again. That sets up the decider in Sydney, which might be the selector's motivation in picking Hazelwood for the Brisbane match.

Maybe, if the series is live, the daily crowd numbers in Sydney might rival Adelaide.

You're forgetting the one thing that consistently appears at every Sydney match - rain!

Boooo

Be 4:3 favourite of being a wash out. Still dont know why they continue to schedule that test in January.

Queensland: Beautiful one day...








...we just aren't certain what day that will be.

 

[DaveyBoy123]

60mms in 6 hours... That's a lot of rain!

That infamous Gabba drainage gonna be tested if the rain stops shortly.

And Southport, for that matter!

In certain parts, they wouldn't even know what day it is.

But yeah anyway, Brisbane having their moment of, "hold my beer, Sydney".

What's the forecast for tomorrow?

 

[Nate7]

What's the forecast for tomorrow?

Heavy rain the next 4 days!

Would it be too much of a logistical nightmare for CA to have Marvel Stadium as a back up ground for any of the Tests? Obviously you can't do it now but in the future if you've got a scenario like today and the weather looks like dog shit for the next few days....we have a roof stadium that you can play cricket in.....why not use it as a last resort option.

 

[DaveyBoy123]

What's the forecast for tomorrow?

The "forecast" for today was 2-15 mms.

The reality was 70 mms.

Its not really...

During the Freo game in 2023 we had 145mm in 45 minutes. 100km south of Brissie.

Hey Nate7 I have lost trust in the BoM and l noticed that you have made some recent weather related comments that proved to be more accurate than the BoM forecasts.

I want to know if I should continue to move crap around in my garage today or do I flake on the couch in front of the tv with your assurance of at least 80 overs being bowled.
