Re: Ponting's shyte use of super sub White

Unless White is going to bowl close to his full 10 overs, then there's no point in him bowling at all. I think Ponting made the right decision. Anyway, I'm sure White will get his go before the series is out.
 
Re: Ponting's shyte use of super sub White

We just got beaten in the last test series and every man and his dog has been sniping at punter and the team.

He has a team comprising of the best players in the world on their knees, I don’t think he is suddenly going to take a chance just so the new kid gets to have a bowl.

He is rubbish anyway! Beau Casson should have been drafted in not White. He bowls pies!

Or Dan Cullen.

you can only sub people with people who havnt battered yet.if Martyn goes out you cant replace him in the batting order you have to replace someone who hasnt battered yet meaning a bowler.

I meant if he wasnt out, but was going slow, sub in a big hitter to continue his innings

Eddiesmith, that would NEVER happen. The supersub rule is not designed for that.

Cameron White is surely a better batting prospect than Bracken and McGrath. He should have been selected in the regular side, with Bracken as the super sub. This would have strengthened our batting line up.

Then when we are bowling, Bracken could have come on for Martyn or someone else who offers little value wehn we are bowling.

Spot on Ordazmo. I was thinking about it all day today while I was damaging the dalton & could not understand it.

Although I thought that was the perfect time to bowl him, game virtually won with less pressure, good way to let the debutant get some overs under his belt and get it outta the way

In the end we won, and that's all that matters, Punter captained well yesterday

sure, the world XI have to go for over 10/over and they've got aktar and vettori in, i'm sure punter would have been shaking

what if we bowled first, then you would have to bring a bowler back in if you wernt going to bowl White at all.

Yeah I was talking in terms of the mindset of the captain and the team. I think they were feeling massively under the pump and they were going to be absolutely ruthless until the final wicket was down.

If we bowled first, we could have subbed White on for McGrath after his 10 overs to bat in the next innings.

Whites batting > McGraths batting
 
Re: Ponting's shyte use of super sub White

I'd be asking why White was there in the first place. After all, Cullen, McGill, Cassin, Doherty, Hauritz and Kreijza (Spelling?) are all better spinners

Cullen - a good player, will be next spinner I guess.
macgill - nsw player quota already filled. never a ODI international player
cassin - dunno anything about him
kreijza - another nsw player?
 
Re: Good to see White get a fair go...Not!

0/22 off his 3 overs. Bracken replaces him, takes a wicket first ball.

Umpire: Are you going to be bowling spin?

Cam White: No, imitation spin, 9/10 pricktorians can't tell the difference. :D
