***Official*** 1st Test at Brisbane

[Starfighter]

Not sure about Ali. I'd give Broad another go.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Eh why would you bowl spin to Marsh early on instead of trying to nick him off .

 

[mr_mister]

Bring back Big Show

 

[stephen]

A Marsh ton would be nice here.

 

[Starfighter]

No it wouldn't.

 

[Burgey]

Marsh will nick off to Ali playing away from his body in that stoned way he does

 

[Shri]

Is Marsh the worst specialist batsman to play tests for Australia since the 90s?

 

[stephen]

No it wouldn't.

Hey he's batting for Australia, I have to support him!

 

[NotMcKenzie]

A Smarsh ton would only be good inasmuch as we need the runs.

 

[mr_mister]

Is Marsh the worst specialist batsman to play tests for Australia since the 90s?

Probably the worst, statistically over a long period, since his dad

Is Marsh the worst specialist batsman to play tests for Australia since the 90s?

Nah. Seriously he ain’t that bad, just has been given a really easy ride for no other reason than potential.

 

[Starfighter]

Hey he's batting for Australia, I have to support him!

You can support Australia more by making sure he's not in the team.

Henriques, Maxwell, North?

 

[morgieb]

A Smarsh ton would only be good inasmuch as we need the runs.

Well yeah, but we do so....

 

[adub]

leave our cats alone Pietersen

 

[OverratedSanity]

There've been many, many worse Australian batsmen than Darsh.

 

[NotMcKenzie]

And he's beaten by Anderson

 

[Cow]

Hussey'esq drive from Marsh.

 

[NotMcKenzie]

Well yeah, but we do so....

Thing is they'd keep picking him after that

 

[Starfighter]

Hard to think of many batsmen, good or bad, who've been given such favoured treatment though.
