Stone and Wood shared the new ball at some point this year. Arshdeep and Bumrah must be some chance to do the same on the Indian tour..

Typical, soon as I bag him he has a purple patch, lol.

He's just a nothing player, running around on the outside not getting his jumper dirty. We're well rid of him if this effort is anything to go by.

That's a wonderful photo, tells a full story.

As I understand if he continues to go games he can then be charged with trespassing which is a potentially more serious criminal offence. The threat of that would usually be enough to keep most people on the straight and narrow.

I remember the fantastic mark he took for the Giants running back with the flight in 2016, full of courage and no little skill. It's pathetic what he has become.

No surprise the results have been on the improve.

Great pics Shane!

Young's 2nd goal was pure A-grade. Worth watching just for that.

I tell you what if Luke Jackson can win a flag, two league fairest and bests, be all-Australian captain and play more than 207 games in a row without missing for either suspension or injury and all that time never once shirking the issue, then we'll all have been on a hell of a ride. Boy has the...

I hope it turns out better than the year Pav and Buddy kicked the most goals in the season but somehow a Victorian still won the Coleman.

Among Aussie quicks only Lillee, McGrath, Lindwall, Cummins and now Hazlewood have over 200 wickets at under 25. Some seriously good company there. If old mate Shamar does as well it will certainly be entertaining I give you that.

Haze finally got his bowling average under 25 after this match. Behind only Bumrah in the fast bowling stakes on present form.

Neck and neck with Rodney Hogg for the title of biggest flog in Australian cricket.

I hope so. Ussie at least is likable, has an opinion and can express it. Warner has none of these qualities.

Yeah their bowling looks ropey as. Shaheen is a beauty but he can't do it all. One of the debutants will bowl absolutely dross, guaranteed.

Not Peter Willey?

Keep in mind too that up until about August 15th is peak holiday and travel time in Japan. 2 and a half weeks from Aug 20th or thereabouts would be sweaty but good imo as it's outside peak season. Some years the weather has even cooled down a little by then but don't bet on it.

How do you go with humidity? I find Tokyo impossible at that time of year because of the heat island effect. The further you can get away from built up areas the better but it's kind of difficult in Japan.

All worthy. You might be able to tell but I love a ton in a hopeless cause.

He was 18 when he scored those 2 tons PB. 18! Best tons by an Indian batsmen in Australia. 1. Tendulkar 114 at the WACA, 1991/2 2. Tendulkar 116 at the MCG, 1999/00 3. Laxman 167 at the SCG, 1999/00 4. Kohli 123 at Perth Stadium, 2018/9 5. Sandeep Patil 174 at the Adelaide Oval, 1980/1

Azzhuriddin didn't get 90 in Perth that series, he got 11 and 24. Tendulkar got 114 of the best runs I've ever seen live.

Someone up thread asked why Shakib is a flog. Exhibit A. Imagine if an Australia player had done any of this.

Like Sarfraz' revenge! To be fair though wasn't the most stupid way I've seen Hilditch get out.

Yep, a nasty piece of work.

What a great bowler, every ball a masterclass in controlling the speed, trajectory, amount of spin, length and direction of the ball. Only took one 10 for in test cricket at the first test I ever attended in 1977 at the WACA. Still the only spinner to get a 10 for in a test at the WACA.

The Neptunes were a great band mate! WA sound. Fantastic

Go to the RAC and get an international driver's license. Speeds are slow because everywhere is congested so it's safe in that sense. I stick to 120 on the expressways. The thing I notice when I'm driving on the expressways is so the relentless flow of traffic, especially trucks. You've got to be...

When are you going? The JR rail passes are going up about 50% from October so keep that in my mind. The individual JR passes (JR West/ JR East etc) may be better value depending on your plans. Try hyperdia.com to get an idea of schedules and prices for the shinkansen. $1k is definitely over the...

"MCC Members Angry at the Laws of Cricket" is pretty close to the perfect definition of irony. Not Allanis Morrisette perfect though of course, but still decent enough.
