Does Bancroft keep in grade cricket? Would just about be the only time he would still pull on the gloves

e regularly kept for WA till Phillipe emerged. He’s actually a cery good keeper for bloke thats not proper keeper

5 catches to Bancroft, 3 to Inglis and 2 to Hardie. All behind the wicket.

Noticed that. Very unusual to see all 10 wickets as caught.
Not only 10/10 caught, all behind the wicket. Even more unusual the WK was not the #1 catcher in that situation.

Unless of course Bancroft was keeping. I don't have vision.
Edit - found the vision. 4 at 2nd slip, 1 at 1st slip. Good chunky edging going on there.

5 catches equals the Shield record.

Agar is not a test level player and never will be.

He started well as a young talent with huge confidence. The confidence is gone and he hasn't developed.

He averages above 42 in FC cricket at a strike rate above 82. Now those are his bowling figures primarily in our Australian domestic league. His batting has also turned from decent to shit.

He is very quickly turning into just another unfulfilled talent and a highly competent grade cricketer.

I remember after his 98 thinking "this kid could be anything". Sad to see where he's ended up.

Too good a catcher to be wasted behind the stumps!

Just think Bancroft is one of the best catchers in the country

He was sensational in the field this year for the Scorchers.

What’s the plan today, bat two sessions or so and then declare with a lead of 400+?

 

[bh90210fan]

Will a draw see us host the final?

If so bat them out of the game, if not declare at tea and go for outright points.

**** that looked nasty

Nah, a draw is only worth 1 point. There are still 2 games left after this.

Bat halfway through the day, with a lead nudging 400. 1 and a half days to bowl them out.

Oh dear

Looks as if we will lose Inglis as well as Stoinis from the side now.

Staggered how MM and Richo can be included when they're not even playing at the moment.

Wonder if players aren't selected for the last ODIon 22 March will be able to fly back for the Shield final.

 

[kane249]

Hopefully Phillipe's century in the second XI is a turning point for him to fill Inglis' role.

Stoinis no big loss in the shield, have Turner in red hot form ready to step up there

Gobsmacked.

Even Maxwell.

Depends which teams make the final.

 

[Hook461123]

He's not the spit the dummy type. It's just another example of the chaotic and bizarre decisions from the selectors lately.

Just saw his interview on the return home. Class individual, didn't sound bitter at all which is amazing.

Guessing it was Wyllie getting hit in the side of the grill ducking into a well directed bouncer from Ellis

Credits in the bank!!

Probably bat through this middle session, come to think of it.
