@colombianps6 Cricket in future: test specialist goes struggling their best for a 40+ test avg with less payment,less matches, wobble seam etc etc whereas T20s(& ODI)specialists go easy mode runs with unreal stats&batting domination in easy pitches &hitting as escapism&with great money&crowds
@Vansh123451 Khawaja is doing all for his book promotion
There was no point bringing it now
Even the victims Warner & Smith didn't say anything about it
Though Smith is still playing
And Bancroft is a nobody so I dont think anyone will care
@SamRoy84 He was never suited batting for no 3
Infact lot of people were calling him batting at lower order since a lot early
The demotion happened too late
Would hv had a 40+ avg by so far if he had done it early
Not everyone can bat vs newball
Plus batting vs old ball in Asia not easy
@SamRoy84 Point was about Mendis improved version in tests in last 2 yrs
He had his moments vs AUS,NZ,SA,WI,BAN last 2 yrs back
If he can continue having great success in such role then his stature will increase
@Cheeku218 Massive achievement to average 37&31 in ODIs in ENG & IND roads where bowlers get slaughtered like cattle
AUS one is fine
2/46
3/33
2/50 in 3 games
2/74&0/91 in 2 of the mega highways he played so don't matter
@Vihaaann These things cannot happen now
With only 1 year left &very less ODIs left
Cannot ditch same players you tried at the last moment and bring newbies
Sign of panicking
Either drop oldies from beginning or stay till end
Sunl cost is high now
@on_drive2306 Cricket should not go in a way where test specialist goes struggling their best for a 40+ test avg with less payment,less matches whereas T20s(& ODI) specialists go easy mode runs with unreal stats &batting domination in easy pitches &hitting as escapism&with great money&crowds
Doubt about 23WC but Henry was a big miss in 25CT Finals
Nathan Smith+O Rourke-78/0(9) in that game
IND chased 254 with one over left
Matt Henry had the best economy rate that tournament for any pacer who had 7+ wkts
Though IND were without their main pacer so evens out
Great field set by Mendis to get Babar Azam out
Currently no team uses leg gully to trap Batters
Only Stokes did vs Carey
Good to see someone using such unique field sets still rather than giving it up& hopelessly bowling shortballs to body hoping someone mistimes it π
Great Tweet
A strong Western Australia is massively related to a strong Australia
More the stronger WA becomes,more good for AUS
Kind of what Barbados was for West Indies
As they say, when Western Australian cricket thrives, Australian cricket thrives.
