Gilly was a unicorn, we'll probably never see someone like him again.

De Villiers and Sangakkara only kept for part of their careers, and played their best cricket as specialist batsmen.

Yep, and when teams pick a keeper based mostly on batsmanship, or make a batsman keep, it ends badly.

What people tend to forget is that Healy was an excellent keeper and particularly to spin and we had this bloke called Warne and the lnock of n Gilchrist at the tome was he keeping to spin

Popped in here to check out the start of summer and the first thing I read is shilling for Inglis again.



Cricket board gonna cricket board.

Nah just w***ers WAnking.

Quality from Carey last night. Fair play.

Kuhnemann to Tasmania... bad move imo.. Tasmania and spinners don't mix.

Indore to Hobart: Kuhnemann's journey to revive his red-ball career

The left-arm spinner took 5 for 16 against India last year but has had precious little first-class cricket since then

Swepson is Captain of Queensland - no demand for two spinners usually - take regular games vs sweet fa

And it's better for all the top spinners playing than not.

Still better than not playing any shield games at all at Qld, which has been the case for a number of years for him now

Freeman is having time off too. Smart move to play regularly.

Kuhnemann is a very good bowler and should be in the ODI & IT20 squad.

I'd argue a better bowler than Swepson period.

I would not say he is better. Just depends what you want. Dour and persistent vs a bit of flight and variety.

Agree with this. Swepson will cause more problems for opposition bats but will also leak more. I think Kuhnemann is a better partner for Murphy if we're putting him as number 2 right now and Lyon's successor.

In a world where Green could send down 12 overs a day, I would pair Murphy with one of Swepson or Kuhnemann on most pitches.

Especially if Marsh can maintain form for a few more years. Will extend the life of Cummins, Haze and Starc too
