Kohli and Rohit are cooked.

He’s been cooked for a while now. That century in Perth prob be his last imo

Virat’s Ranji Trophy return is going well

Managed 6 off the 15 before being bowled through the gate and giving us this wallpaper worthy photo

Here's the video for those interested. Could have driven a truck through the gap between bat and pad.

For such richa cricketing nation thats rules the game these days it’s comical that players aren’t don’t have club helmets in their premier fc comp.

Not really Curtis is a very good young player great replacement for Josh

Yeah he looks promising but losing a player of Inglis would any team. Him being around the Aussie squad in every format will mean he’ll hardly play for WA. I can forget that fact if he is a mainstay in the Aussie test side however

 

[Carbine Chaos]

None of us like England but India subbing out a batsmen with concussion for a fast bowler who goes on to take 3 wickets the second innings is utter BS.

Mooney brings up her 100 (after a nervy first over haha).

What a player. Probably doesn't quite get the plaudits she deserves because of the likes of Lanning, Perry etc.

How good are the women going

Saw a tweet overnight that Australia have a lead of 252 with 5 wickets in hand without Perry bowling or facing a single ball

Fair effort

West Australians* dominating with bat and ball.

*I'm counting it, shut up

 

[Carbine Chaos]

Umpires call saves Mooney, you give that out 99 times out of 100 I reckon.

 

[Ochre]

I know they don't play many tests but Perry and Lanning not having hundreds in all formats is staggering to me. Healy very unlucky not to too.

King just misses a loopy straight one, pretty poor batting.

Wait, why is Perry batting? If she was going to, why not come in before Garth and King?

Kingy just looking to wrap this up and get her hands on the ball again

Or come in after Brown. Wonder if she's not right, but wanted to bat so we're giving her a few balls before the declaration

 

[Ochre]

That or we just want to **** with the Poms by sending the Poms by sending the goat out at 10 when we're 250 ahead

 

[Carbine Chaos]

Weird batting this morning, been all over the shop. Bodes well for how they'll fare with the bat I guess.

Perry out for 2, that was worth it. Ecclestone gets 5 somehow.

Spin from both ends, especially when there’s not much turn or it’s slow turn, is about as dull as test cricket gets.

Couldn't have been 60s

5 wickets in 25 minutes

My job here is done

Sri Lanka has had some really good results in the last several months, including sweeping NZ in a test series, taking one test in England and generally being very competitive in that series, and beating India 2-0 in an ODI series. But this performance has been pathetic. Lousy bowling, dreadful batting, uninspired captaincy. They don’t look remotely competitive with Australia.

Wareham the new MacGill? (would have played both FWIW)

That King delivery was near-unplayable.

Hook it to my veins

Men’s and women’s test teams going wicket for wicket on opposite sides of the globe chasing an innings victory
