Add my 2 cents, How does Steve Smith gets a game? It makes me sick

Came in here just to say this.

As long as Steve Smith is playing, we might as well hand over the Ashes to England.

Would rather Haddin gets moved up to 6 and have Jackson Bird as an extra bowler.

Also what did Matthew Wade do to get dropped?

I don't think Trott is enjoying faceing Agar.

He looks good the young fella. Plz take siddle off ASAP.

Dunno man maybe opted for experience. Yeah smith is shit I dunno what ever happened to Callum Ferguson but he is better than Smith.

 

[Nomore4s]

Better than them picking Warner.



No clue, should have pushed Haddin up to 6 and picked Faulkner.

Why not pick Wade as a batsman, better than Smith.

This is getting out of control. A guy who weighs 12 kg called Root is tearing Aussies apart. Messed up.

Don't get the smith hate, he'll be a gun. Re Wade, his glovework wasn't up to scratch. They took the punt that he would make up for it with the bat, it didn't work out.

Rubbish.

Kept poorly in India, and the selectors have a short memory of Haddin's spudness.

Extra keeping practice? I'd rather Faulkner for his bowling, then Starc doesn't have to be the token left-armer and they can pick someone who can bowl with a red ball, like Bird.

 

[Nomore4s]

Rubbish.

Why Wade was averaging close to 40 wasn't he? His keeping is sub standard but his batting is okay.


Are Aussie selectors on a mission to give every spinner in the country a test cap?

 

[Plugger35]

They need to give Siddle the red jacket, sub on Bird or Harris.

Bird should have been picked in this game.

Nek minnit, bowled 'im.

Can't ever take a trick, can you?

 

[Plugger35]

Maybe not

 

[PieBeast]

Clarke makes a good move for once

 

[JimmyDE]

Lol plugger wrong as usual, Siddle picks up the wicket. Was the umpire right plug?

Closer to low 30s...and he started off fairly well from memory so dropped away.

I TIPPED THiS! Take off Siddle ASAP ...and bowl him at the other end! Oh that last bit must have been lost in the Internet.

 

[Geelong Dynasty]

How many cricket pitches do these pommies want., ffs.
Stupid poms.

This.

Looks like the 70's grounds. FFS Engirlund is a shithole

 

[KardiniaPark]

Ahh shit I had Cook as my fantasy captain. POMMY GIT.

 

[armedwithhope]

That would've been a seriously handy wicket

 

[Geelong Dynasty]

Who is the bigger moo, Pietersen or Ballantyne?

 

[Starburns_]

Wade would have caught that.

 

[armedwithhope]

Wade would have caught that.

Rubbish

 

[JimmyDE]

Wade would have caught that.

That's what I said as soon as it happened

 

[cynical]

Smith gets a game cos his bowling action reminds the selectors of Warnie and nothing gets the selectors more excited than potential all-rounders, unfortunately 90% of them end up being shit at both.

I'm glad Warner isn't in the team, A grade flog and is almost as overhyped as Cyril.

Warner, Cowan, Hughes and Smith are all terrible batsmen. Cowan has a bit more heart than the rest but is still shit.

Only good thing about this years Ashes is that it's good background noise and the commentary is half decent.

See if that works.
