Maddo bowling with a cap on

Could he be the most sun-smart cricketer this game has ever produced?

Funny thing is it isn't even that sunny in Sydney AFAIK.

I don't get why spinners don't bowl with caps/hats on. Like obviously it'll fall off if a quick wears one but it's not like spinners have a run-up.

SeamUp i dont think that Handscomb excels in one format over another, maybe others disagree?

NSW facing an upward battle to make the top 3.

Oh btw Sandhu running between wickets was lolbad.

SIDDLE returns to action tomorrow. What an occasion.

 

[Shady Slim]

Vics chance 2 take a final spot today,and if its a BP win they will be nearly equal with Qld.

 

[NUFAN]

The air is pregnant with excitement, amazing first over

 

[NUFAN]

[Gnske]

That innings from Michael may well be the worst innings I've ever seen.

 

[morgieb]

Why is Maxwell opening the bowling?

Though tbf it's working

 

[Prince EWS]

Why is Maxwell opening the bowling?

Because regular opening bowler Michael Beer isn't playing today.

2016, what a year.

EDIT: Actually he is playing. Not sure why Maxwell opened then; left hander maybe?

That BCF ad is going to be such a cancer by the end of the summer.

speaking as a legspinner who wears the floppy and has a very vertical action it's just not practical for some

before burgey says why don't i bowl pace i grew up on a healthy diet of warne, i have the height and athleticism for pace but warne

 

[Prince EWS]

>warne
>very vertical action

 

[Top_Cat]

I reiterate my 'SA have uncovered someone really special in Weatherald'. Typical leftie in that he smashes anything short and climbs into the spinners but once he figures out his tempo, I think he'll play Tests. Some brutality about him.

 

[Shady Slim]

>warne
>very vertical action

well i didn't copy his action, my action's mostly self taught

but **** me the fat blonde sleaze wizard was the reason i took up the form of bowling, when i was little it was amazing to see this bleached rotund man do the things he did to the ball, pure magic

Hard pass on James Brayshaw.

I thought triple M was already some tests? it sounds like a horrid crew
