State Victoria - The Mighty Bushrangers

[Cleavy]

He would play but it’s near impossible and financially irresponsible for him and blokes like him to do so

I don't think he's struggling for a dollar...

I'm happy for Pete but it's a bit of an indictment on the batting stocks in this country that he's seen as a solid option for this tour.

It’s a horses for courses selection - he is one of the best players of spin in the country and this is going to turn square from ball one and both games are at Galle.

Galle is so picturesque

I'm surprised but not surprised that he didn't get picked. I wonder if he's on the plane if we're still trying to qualify for WTC final instead of Connolly?

Side for next Shield game should be:
Harris Kellaway Short Handscomb Rogers Maxwell Harper Sutherland Elliott O'Neill Siddle

But they'll probably go with Merlo and Warren instead of Short and Maxwell.

Do we know how Short is recovering from his toe/foot injury?

Would have thought Short and Maxwell would be in Pakistan for that 1 day world tournament,perhaps Boland and Murphy would be available for later shield games

I think we'll see Peake debut.

Hopefully will debut soon but failed with the bat today for Geelong.Harry Dixon is another one I would like to see in the shield.

 

[year of the roo]

Are they likely to start in long format or 50 over for us?

Meh. One bad innings. He's quality. Dixon not ready yet.

Dixon in the Dean Jones, Peake in the Shield
