A few surprises for WA, Paris has presumably been managed and Gannon comes in.

Inglis wasn’t even in the initial squad, but has been released by the test squad.

So there is no reserve batsman with the test squad?Bancroft fails again,sad to see him go through this rough trot with the bat.

Beau Webster.

I'd suggest they want to give Inglis a run and have kept Webster as an emergency.

 

[Freezin]

Bangers form revival was short and sweet. That is one long tail for WA. NSW after their early inroads, must be licking their lips.

 

[new breed]

Curtis looks the goods , keeper / batsman look out Carey / Inglis .

211 all out, NSW 0/97 in reply. Day couldn't have gone much worse.

Strange WA selection with such a long tail.....now with NSW 0/97, despite WA having 5 specialist bowlers.....happy to eat humble pie if WA can turn this around.

Feel like Rocc’s form has dipped a bit since he’s been talking about wanting to go on the SL tour.

I think he's the third best spinner in the country, the problem is the two ahead are also offies, and the best is very similar in style to him.

All eyes on Konstas.

Not necessarily to get into a test this summer but if he wants to cement himself as one to pick in the next 12 months or so then backing up his PMs XI score by converting this into a big score is key.

Plenty of time to bat with WA out early and already past 50.

Knew Jack Edwards had dominated even before looking at the scorecard. Old mate exists to kill WA.

Has put together a very good season. Hope he kicks on as he has a high ceiling as a no.7 who could open the bowling.

Kurtis Patterson with another score. Seems to be a good example of how being dropped can be beneficial instead of just picking blokes on reputation til they find form.

 

[Westend]

keep fighting WA....losing a day looks like only one team can win

expecting a draw

young Hamish gone okay......Morris and Couch bowled well

Gannon poor...rocco average

Seems to be in a rich vein of form now with 140*...He'll be disappointed that this is the last round of matches before the break

You'd imagine NSW declare overnight but if not he could go into xmas as the leading SS runscorer. 10 behind Henry Hunt.

 

[Tugga27]

Thought NSW missed a trick by not declaring and having an hour at us tonight.

Still probably roll us but wouldn't want to lose any more time due to rain or light.

 

[corbies]

NSW win with about 7 minutes remaining in the day.

 

[largebus]

I'll make a bold prediction and say it won't be 4 Shields in a row.
