Connelly needs to play in Cape town, just for someone under 30!
and dumb breeds far far dumber it seems
Maddinson opens up again with Head
this will be over by stumps
and promptly gives it away again
hahahaha you could not make this fantasy up
Maddinson, the dumbest test selection in Australian cricket history. Take a bow George Bailey
See ya Nic.
Thanks for coming and having a crack at least.
Good health Always to you!
I had Quiney on top but I think Maddinson has at least equalled him now as the worst Test selection in Australian Test history!
Just hopelessly in over their head ability wise!
There was also a guy called Wayne Phillips, not the Wicketkeeper batsman who was pretty good. This Wayne Phillips was a small guy from Victoria who played 1 test and was out of his depth. In the 70s there was a spin bowler named John Watkins who struggled to land his deliveries on the pitch but featured in a match winning batting partnership wirh Bob Massie in one of the few tests he played. There was Ken Eastwood who was accomplished shield played who was selected when Bill Lawry was dropped during an ashes series.
Bryce Mcgain, Hilton Cartwright
I wonder if Maddo was allowed back in the dressing room after that dismissal…he can thank his lucky stars AB or Ponting weren’t his skipper, they would of given him an absolute roasting…and beating…with the full face of their bats…no edges whatsoever
Marnus chucked it away again. What a muppett
Well considering the same 2 batsmen are in at stumps…morally one could say Australia are in the box seat …only if you leave out the fact it’s Aus 2nd innings. Better effort one could say, but then again, after the first innings effort, not hard to top I guess.
Perhaps Labs should bat 8 or 9, 30’s are good from there, sadly not at 3. Renshaw and Webster’s double failures, leave a lot of work for Head, Smith and Carey to do. A Head maiden double test ton and a Scotty B maiden 50 is what Aust needs, not asking for too much eh?
Odd Rain dance won’t go astray,but I suspect it won’t be enough.
They were 4 down just in the second innings
Really good performance by the Saffers.
Dads army had no answer,atm.
They would need to bat 2 sessions to get in front then most of the final session for the draw. Unlikely with only 3 recognised batsmen left..Hope they make a fight of it at least.
Marnus should be dropped for the next test just on the basis of that horrible shot he played
Mate I bet London to a Pound
that the George McDonald foundation
drops Boland to bring back another crony
Lyon
I just wouldn’t put that past them
…and keeps Marnus chugging along,…

Had all the answers last week though mate…age is a week by week concept me thinks?
Alex Carey averaging 16.44 from his past 10 innings
If it wasn’t for his exemplary keeping mate, he would be another for the bin TBH
I am going to be interested to see how the Purple circle, boys club and Baggy blue haters react when Aust plays NZ and Aust top 3 could be Davies, Konstas and Patterson…folk want change and youth , but not sure all three from the state of NSW…lol
