Kumar Sarna-The next best thing.

[Can Shop]

I was able to watch the kid bat when they played hawthorn monash in the country round. He made 142 or somethign ridiculous. Then during that week he had the u/18 carnival and broke the record for most runs in the week. In about 6 days of cricket he was overaging 70 or so. One side in the carnival tried to sledge him big time and they got reported and stuff. The kid should go places

Racial sledging?

 

[Benno From Berwick]

concur, the quality in Australian sub first class cricket would be close to english county cricket and better than some countries FC competitions.

and was the warren ayres still running around? in district cricket recently?

Warren Ayres still playing and still going alright at 41.

Each player in the carnival was given a handbook of all the players playing in the carnival an this team cut his picture out an stuck it on there helmets. I was said one of them gestured to spit at it. Pretty low by them

You are the one judging them. This thread is about Sarna. Never intended it to be about a comparsion between Kumar and Hill. You did that.

My first post says

Fellas, before you start creaming over this bloke, keep in mind theres also another 18 year old called Michael Hill in the main academy squad this season. A left handed ponting.

I never said Sarna is better or worse there. I said Hill is pretty bloody good and shouldnt be forgoten.

6 players from the Western Spirit are involved. The short leg did it and three balls later off the spinner almost got collected by a full blooded Sarna pull shot

 

[RoosterLad]

so this kid is going to be as good as ponting? you can guarantee that?

FFS mate. Mentioning Hill's name in this thread in that context infers one thing.

Why not mention James Pattinson?

and give me a break....left handed Ponting? FFS mate, get your head out of his rectum.......Ponting, at Hills age was already playing First Class Cricket and making hundreds.......

Why not call him the new Bradman.

Now back to your studies....

Why dont you ask why I say that before making unjust comments chump. Have you ever seen the bloke play? The way he bats is in the same mould as ponting. Plays with hard hands, likes to play aggressively and is an excellent fielder. Oh wait, hes left handed.

Cant you handle two bloody good players coming through? Gets you a bit figety?

And why not mention James Pattinson? Because hes predominately a bowler. Thats why. Now stop having a bloody hissy fit buddy. I think the heat has got to you

Henriques.. and now Sarna..

Any of our 2015 WC squad gonna come from Australia?

We're turning into the Poms

 

[Borry]

Victoria must be following the lead of England to try and get another pernament fixture in the Australian squad.

you're right the only australians are the anglos who eat meat pies and drink vb. imbecile

 

[Aritro]

I think both those lads were born overseas.

Not that it makes them less Australian, but they don't 'come from Australia'.

 

[ubolt]

brilliant batsman Kumar. Brilliant.

He'll go a long way.

 

[SorryIHammerChicken]

It's funny to hear those detracting Monty and KP coming from other countries, but here, they respect the fact that we can bring in overseas players. Just an observation.

 

[Benno From Berwick]

Good time to bump this thread.

Sarna is a star.

 

[bigpapagman]

what if the time comes & he cant get a game for Australia. Would he play for England or India if given the oppurtunity?

 

[Afridi6666]

Sarna - he aint the only asian.


Usman Khawaja - Born December 18, 1986, Islamabad, Pakistan.

Major teams - NSW Blues 2nd XI


Highly rated


We could have a Pakistani & an Indian both playing for us in a few years.


Then imagine if Shaun Gillies (West Indies) converts his sublime allrounder tallents into consistency. Then we will have a Indian, Pakistani & a West Indian.


Then to warp your minds even futher imagine if Luke Ronchi keeps playing like he does..........and Henriques progress's as he will and then................then........................in our side............


- Kiwi
- Indian
- Pakistani
- West Indian
- Portugal



Could we become the new England.

How come Sarna isn't in the Vic squad??? Surely he would be good enough?

 

[PinCushion]

has a rookie contract!

 

[Cassius_Clay]

No way. Has a rookie contract but thats it. Cricket is alot different to AFL. Most cricketers at 18-19 are considered very good if they're playing Grade 1s. Very rare to see a 19 year old playing First Class matches.

Anyway, he hasnt been dominating district 1s and you wouldnt expect him to be either at his age.

He has no contract. Full or rookie.

He dominated a number of 1st XI games last year. 148 vs Hawthorn in Shepparton was the stuff of legends. He can play. Premeirship player at 18 with Dandenong, made 26 and 49 in a game when individual scores over 20 were like hen's teeth. He dominated the Twenty20 final against Melbourne last year with 66 not out. He is a star. Hasn't been available just yet for Premeir side Dandenong. Will play this Saturday vs Footscray at Shepley. Come along and have a look....
