Australian Domestic Off Season 2018

[Borges]

Why are Stanlake and Richardson missing from the four day squad? Are they considered to be limited overs specialists?

There is still a lot of doubt as to whether Stanlake can withstand the workload of First Class cricket, CA are deliberately being very cautious with him. Been well documented here in the Australian media.

As for Richardson, I have absolutely no idea.

 

[Borges]

Thanks.
Stanlake was down on pace (still bowled very well) when he played earlier, but Richardson was fast; very fast.

Khawaja simply has to play in the UAE. It'd be a crime to not pick him based on performance.

 

[TheJammyTurtle]

Khawaja
Renshaw
Shaun Marsh
Maxwell
Mitch Marsh
Top 5 against Pakistan?

 

[Starfighter]

MMarsh is 12 spots too high.

 

[stephen]

Labaschagne could be a Smokey for the number 6 spot. Seems to score difficult runs but never downhill ski.

 

[brockley]

If Labuschagne gets another 50 he can say his tour spot is safe,2 50's so far.Thats good when u consider he wasn't in the squad.I'd rest Khawjah 2nd game.Read that the spinner wasn't attacking playing a more containment role,not something you think you would see of an Indian spinner.BTW back now,thanks for the updates.Damn phone internet.

 

[GoodAreasShane]

I rate Marnus, have for a while, seems to be pretty good at adapting to various match situations and altering his game accordingly. In an ideal world I would have preferred him to have a properly big Shield season first but he can't be too far away from international selection now.

We'd probably see Burns and Head there. I'm tempted to pull a NUFAN and pick 7 batsmen + Paine

Jeez that's depressing

Finch has to have a decent chance to play

and pls for the love of god don't pick Head for a Test match

 

[GoodAreasShane]

Head has been quality at Shield level over the last 3 seasons, his FC record is still dragged down by being thrown into a fairly dire Redbacks side as a teenager.

QlD options,Apparently Boyce back on town,and could be called up.

 

[TheJediBrah]

Anyone know what the story with JLT cup coverage is? Live stream via app like last time? Televised?

 

[quincywagstaff]

Fox Sports are going to cover 13 matches (roughly 2/3rds) of the matches.

 

[brockley]

Both I think.
India A 5/176 Nesar 2 and Holland 2.
The Board Of Control For Cricket In India
Cricinfo not updating score.

So Aus no.3 (4?) spinner is running riot in India, what a time to be alive, thanks DJT for putting us in an alternate universe

I don't think many people on this forum think Agar is a better bowler than Holland, to be fair. I'm not even convinced the Aus selectors do -- Agar's got being younger, a much better batsman and a much better fielder on his side.

I controversially don't even think O'Keefe is better than Holland, but this is not a mainstream opinion.

 

[GoodAreasShane]

For a long time I didn't rate Holland at all, but he has well and truly stepped up over the last couple of seasons. Looked out of his depth in Sri Lanka, but it's worth considering he was called up at the last minute so he was short of rhythm.

Yeah thought Burns might be there myself since he wasn’t even picked on this A tour,not sure I’d go with him myself tho,looked pretty lost against spin in Sri Lanka a couple of years ago
