Perth crowd has never really supported Test cricket

What does everyone except mid week when people work. It’s dumb scheduling start it Friday when many work half days

The pitch is offering some very minor assistance, they are making it sound like it's doing a heap. Looks a pretty good batting strip as per normal here in Australia.

First 2 hours there will be a bit in it as usual but you’d hate to have us 0 down after that…
 
I’m not the biggest Warner hater here but geez it would be nice to be blooding a new opener here and actually getting something out of this series. I suppose the only options aren’t exactly exciting anyway
I don't even think this blooding thing works
Remember when we gave Joe Burns, Patterson a go against Pakistan and Sri Lanka in 2019. They still sucked afterwards when they faced good bowlers.

These attacks and wickets are easier than FC cricket

Thats the other thing with Perth crowds, they are not interested in Batathons. they want to attend day one and see both sides bat. They don't care if the game goes only 3-4 days.

Curators are between a rock and a hard place have to make it flat so they get weekend crowds and revenue

Fairly sure all tests aside from Melb & Sydney start Thursday. The Gabba has always started on a Thursday

I think the idea is that you'll get more people in on day 3 & 4 than if they are on a Monday or Tuesday, when very few would.
