***Official*** Australia in Bangladesh 2017

i'm most intrigued by this idea of glenn 'econ rate of 4.58 in tests' maxwell playing the holding role.

what or who is he holding?

Never played a Test outside Asia

Given that the alternative is playing on Australian pitches, is that supposed to be a point in favour...?

 

[mr_mister]

just use Maxwell for his meme batting

(and world class fielding)

Doesn't even get a trundle in Oz any more.

I don't know where I'm going with any of this anymore. Maxwell good, Lyon bad.

Great all set for Aussies arriving tonight. Welcome.

 

[Furball]

I disagree. Burgey may be old but I think he can hold his own tbh

ok

 

[Furball]

Lyon will once again prove TJB and his other haters wrong on this tour and remain the WPNCOS. He will then return home to prepare for a triumphant Ashes series in which he'll take 20+ wickets at an average of around 25 per wicket and win the Compton-Miller Medal for player of the series as Australia win the urn back 3-1.

Unusually pessimistic for you.

Will this be televised?

 

[brockley]

On the Cricket Australia website.
Not on Fox apparently.

wow, when was the last time an Australia Test match hasn't been televised in Australia?

Presumably it's got something to do with networks not thinking it would go ahead. Either that or they really think no one cares about the series.

WHAT? Farcical.

 

[morgieb]

Australian cricket TV guide ? How to watch and stream every game | The Roar is the first source I can find about the matter and it says Fox are covering it. brockley what's your source?

 

[Burgey]

Unusually pessimistic for you.

The one test England wins is when Lyon has his ritualistic dropping for the series and they cash in against a weakened Australian outfit.

Also, Australia will definitely lolapse at least once in the series which will cost them a game.

TV Sports Foxtel guide for August Morgieb.
Oh I see it is.
They must not have included it due to doubts over the tour,or considered it not interesting enough to publish in the magazines Sports guide..

thankyou

its about time we had another series against you

may the best side win



i want maxwell and sabbir rahman to notch up tons this series

 

[TheJediBrah]

I'm looking forward to the contest between the 2 star left-arm spinning all-rounders of each team. Shakib v Agar.

Shakib has a lot to live up to.

 

[Burgey]

Sir Gary Shakib does indeed have much to live up to. I'm looking forward to hopefully seeing bits and pieces of the series, work permitted.

of those 20 wickets about 17 will be tailenders caught on the fence

I liked this post because I thought you were sledging the English about Lyon taking 20 wickets in a test and 17 of them being English tail enders. I now realise that you were sledging Lyon because you have a bias against finger spinners who are actually good.

Nah just Lyon. But even that's getting hard to maintain.
