*Official* Australia in Sri Lanka 2016

[TheJediBrah]

What else is there to talk about until the tour officially starts with the ODI series next week?

 

[Top_Cat]

This is what happens when the warm ups are dull, everyone focusses on the non-issues.

 

[Spikey]

Jono should be infracted for starting this then running away

Look if jono did this more often he'd become my favourite poster

 

[sunilreddy]

Australia

 

[vic_orthdox]

Yeah OK, but that's selectorial incompetence (and he is a selector as well, so incompetence on his part too), but it's not him being a dick or anything.

I don't think the captain is a selector any more, had that role removed from their remit during Clarke's stint as skipper.

 

[Spikey]

cool this is on i guess

 

[Starfighter]

Sri Lanka a little light on the spin front

Yeah.. it is silly and I think there was an issue with how Watson was treated with Clarke as a selector right, IIRC?

 

[Gnske]

If that was a bucket of aids I bet Finchy would have caught it

 

[Starfighter]

Chances of Finch sending down an over or two here? I suppose we've got Head

 

[Starfighter]

Spanner.

One of them will have to bowl, unless they plan to get 10 overs out of Henriques

 

[Starfighter]

That's possible though, although I wouldn't do it.

 

[Starfighter]

Good to see we're wasting our review.

 

[Starfighter]

Oh how predictable.

 

[Gnske]

The drunken inbred is bowling quite skilfully here

 

[Starfighter]

Two catches dropped, now one falls in between three guys.

Also, Zampa's action really ain't that similar to Warne's.

 

[NUFAN]

I feel like betting sites are really generous when they offer above double your money for over 3.5 runs scored in the first over. I know SL only just reached the target from the last ball of the over, but it seems like the data that websites use isn't up to date.

I would have thought that Haze would be rested from today's game. Any score above 225 will test us, I'd imagine. The target should be 240.

 

[Starfighter]

I would have thought that Haze would be rested from today's game.

Why? He's hardly bowled thanks to Smith's captaincy.

 

[NUFAN]

Why? He's hardly bowled thanks to Smith's captaincy.

He has a busy schedule over the next 6 months and I don't feel as though his bowling especially suits these conditions. Not a big deal, I'm sure NCN will get his chance.
