***Official*** Australia in South Africa + South Africa in Australia 2016/17

[Burgey]

The narrative being read out by every commentator is that he has improved. If you say it often enough it's true.

Have already seen him lunge at three or four routine takes tbh. Seems to still let the ball get outside his eye line when he keeps standing back.

 

[Dan_M_Bali]

Matthew Renshaw looks really tall.

 

[SeamUp]

Does Bird get this test, Gabba and MCG to stick his hand up ?

 

[Starfighter]

**** yeah.

 

[Burgey]

Yeah, but look at the names in that list, Howsie, Flem, Athlai - they'll make an argument that Ross Taylor is a better batsman than Kevin Pietersen, they're unable to perceive things beyond patriarchal support.

Good to see you're in touch with your feminist side.

 

[Gnske]

Voges would have dropped that

True Queensland gumption in that catch

 

[StephenZA]

Double Dammitt.....

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

Amla has been utterly rubbish this series

 

[morgieb]

Is that the 4th time Hazlewood's gotten Amla?

Good catch that from Renshaw. Voges would've stuffed it up I suspect.

 

[Dan_M_Bali]

I had a feeling SA wouldn't turn up for this test.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Haze has made him his bunny this series.

 

[SeamUp]

Huge! Been a funny period in Hash's career.

Jp needs to standup against a moving ball now.

 

[Starfighter]

Is that the 4th time Hazlewood's gotten Amla?

Yeah. Bunny alert.

 

[Blocky]

Great take that one - great pair of hands.

Amla might as well retire... he's so late on the ball these days.

 

[Gnske]

Time for goodness gracious man and the mute button

 

[Burgey]

Does Bird get this test, Gabba and MCG to stick his hand up ?

Possibly, but he's a lot more known as a quantity than the debutants, so if he bowls pish I can see him not getting as long as them.

He's really pitching it up here to try to get it to swing, which i don't necessarily think is his best MO.

Jeez that's a nice little intro to test cricket for Renshaw. Well taken.

 

[SeamUp]

It's the Nottinghamean in him I reckon. My roots too.

 

[Starfighter]

Voges would have dropped that

Good catch that from Renshaw. Voges would've stuffed it up I suspect.

Good to see such high, sorry, accurate opinions of Voges' fielding.

 

[Dan]

Only probably Flem and Howsie. They're the only two stupid enough to make that claim.

Yeah, but look at the names in that list, Howsie, Flem, Athlai - they'll make an argument that Ross Taylor is a better batsman than Kevin Pietersen, they're unable to perceive things beyond patriarchal support.

Cut this **** out.

 

[Blocky]

Cut this **** out.

Feel free to pass the same message on then.
