*Official* Australia in Sri Lanka 2016

[91Jmay]

Have Marsh as 3rd seamer, drop Holland and pick another bat. Marsh/Hazelwood/Starc can cope with more workload, Lyon bulk of overs then Voges/Smith can bowl the rest.

This team is probably the worst #1 team in the history of cricket. Can't win a ****ing test on a whole friggin' continent and is poop in England too. That's most of the bloody cricket world. #sackstevesmith

At least this series has shown that Fatty Herath is the true people's champion

 

[Burgey]

Late 2000s India was worse but this is a terrible Australian batting line up.

 

[mr_mister]

I wouldn't say terrible they have Smith and Warner. And Voges is still averaging 85 in tests (yes I know this is inflated whatever)


So like, I dunno. We'l come good.

 

[bigmitch]

Nightwatchman is the most over-rated tactic ever.

When Burns fell, maybe Smith could have taken some responsibility as the best batsman in the team, and apparently somehow best bat in the world, and put himself at no. 3 for once??

We could have been 1 down at stumps with the same batsmen in as we have now

even if youre a non-spinning country i reckon you have to roll out something that turns from day one now if australia tour. you're never going to beat them on the hard and fast stuff, but you can on these.

 

[Shady Slim]

**** me this imgur business is rigged

 

[Prince EWS]

Khawaja is probably the worst player of spin in the world out of the batsmen I consider to be good and likely to hold their places. I can't think of anyone worse who's actually test standard.

Faf is pretty bad.

Not everyone thinks like that. If you think you have to doctor your pitches to beat some one that's a pretty big admission of inferiority.

 

[bigmitch]

So, I heard the beaches are good at Galle

 

[StephenZA]

Faf is pretty bad.

Nah, Faf is not to bad..... Duminy on the other had is atrocious. (particularly to left arm)

 

[mr_mister]

decent start here boys, feel like they can't keep up this tempo for too long but we'll see

 

[mr_mister]

they're getting to the pitch of the ball at least

 

[mr_mister]

fuuuuuck that's out

 

[mr_mister]

time for Voges to show he is indeeed #bestafterbradman

 

[Starfighter]

Damn. It was a good start from these two as well.

Knew it was out when cricinfo took extra long to update the commentary.

 

[mr_mister]

[bigmitch]
