[Nothing]

100%. Especially with the light show.
However the sun setting on the west side of the stadium is problematic.

It would be more problematic if it didn't set on the west side.

Just have tests in Perth and Adelaide

People dont turn up here unfortunately (I do so I can criticise )

 

[freo_leo29]

Perth should be pink ball.
Optus is a giant solar panel in summer.
It needed more shade.

We had one, crowd numbers weren't great, got to see Smitty's screamer live though

Who schedules the cricket?

Why move the Brisbane Test match to occur during their wettest month?

Test match in Sydney is also consistently during their wettest month, with the State seemingly too proud of the history to care about the people who pay money to watch washed out days of nothing every year.

Even the AB Medal is on when the team will be in Sri Lanka?

Am I being too harsh or are these people brainless idiots?

CA are too busy worried about BBL these days

They have NFI

Since when do they schedule tests to start on a Saturday as well

Last week should have been a Thursday and this week a Friday.

Go back to Brisbane in early-mid November, Adelaide, Perth in the week before Xmas then Boxing day and Sydney.

Why change what's broke.

Unfortunately the fact your 3 hours behind the Fox and 7 won't have a bar of it.

Prime time test cricket for the Perth match on the east coast is already set up perfectly. With the last session finishing around 8:30-9pm

Stumps will be nearly midnight on the east coast if its a pink ball and the ratings will nose dive.

Poor wording on my behalf. As shown by your stats, in the context of the Test summer, Sydney's rainiest month is January. Although I can see it's almost a case of splitting hairs
I'm just wrong about Brisbane though. Apparently has 10.1 rainy days in October so maybe not as dumb moving that Test as I thought.

I’ve got a mate from Sydney and he know’s nothing about Retic as he’s never had it while living there. Everything would die in Perth.

Konstas the only other one but you wouldn't want to scar him against Bumrah. Bloke is on another level at the moment.

 

[Piggy Smalls]

Umm... did Usha just call Bumrah a primate?

 

[Dockernut]

Farkenell this batting line up is puss.

How does India have 3 reviews remaining when they have already used one and unsuccessful?

If it’s umpires call which was obviously originally not out, they get it back.

Yes but they still get to question it

England rolled in 36 overs on a flat deck in Hamilton. Long live Bazball!

Travis Head is a weapon

 

[Paracleet]

That is a great 100.

 

[Purpletown]

Travis Head is a weapon

He sure is. Anytime Head gets a big score or a century he heaps pressure onto the fielding side because of his rapid rate of scoring. Smith is doing a good job here too by holding up his end.

Lol! I’ve done it again!

Ok, gonna try the big one guys. Mark this post:

Freo have no chance of winning the flag this year!

Owns india

As much as the BCCI own the ICC

 

[Snuffaluphagus]

Australian cricket is saved again!!!

The kind of player that can turn a Test inside a session. Like Gilly back in the day.

Just as we would be stuffed without Trav. Indian would stink without Bumrah

So strange to see an India team with impotent spin bowling and reliant on a single champion fast bowler.

Fox caller’s ‘primate’ comments on Bumrah raise eyebrows

Cricket fans have been left perplexed after former England cricketer turned commentator appeared to call Indian star Jasprit Bumrah a ‘primate’.

Answering my own question here. WTF.

Just a slip, no need for the pitchforks. Probably good that she's 'a woman of colour' though.
