@rosey_6886 Selection process has been complete dogsh#t under Bails/Macca
Top 3 are specialist positions
4-7 you can chop and change all you like but openers should open
Inglis scores runs for fun when given the chance and then can't make the side
Make sense of that because I can't π€·πΌββοΈ
@amenners Would be interesting to see the stats divided between tests with the gloves & those he played as a batter. Patches of good form but not in the conversation of "greats" I wouldn't think.
@amenners Would love to know if it's Cummins or McDonald that doesn't rate Agar..
With limited opportunities last few years
Agar

I know who's at least in my squad #baffling
I'm as loyal as the day is long..
The only NRL team I will ever support.. but sacking coaches every 5 minutes while the board "are excited about the future"
Honestly it's f#@*ing tough
@braddavo Interesting argument.. I'd think something more like a protest result (demoted places) for overuse rather than complete disqualification would be better middle ground for owners etc but worth discussing.
Maybe just as a radical thought, try bowling one side of the wicket..
To a plan..
And away from a batters strength..
I've heard there are people that do this for a living
Just a thought π€¦πΌββοΈ

England scored 74 singles in 54.4 overs
Australia have scored just 42 through 70overs
"Aggressive cricket" isn't all about whacking boundaries.. Aus have let England dictate terms and are paying the price for not taking the game forward #Ashes
No one in this England line up is an 05 Ponting or 2019 Smith.. Ring it up, bowl away from their strengths and watch the wickets tumble
Had 4 matches to work it out and still started with 45 min of π₯§ before getting anywhere near close to right #Ashes#SlowLearners#CmonAussie
@paperless_books Crawley's "highlights" are edges galore outside off stump and punishing anything straight.. we bowled into his wheelhouse and paid the price.. not sure what the plan was but we got it wrong horribly
@paperless_books Needs a big 1
Aussies very meek for what was always going to be a very fired up side this morning..
Have to find a way to scrape to 300 on what looks will be a very good batting pitch mid afternoon and beyond
