Australian Domestic Season 2018/19

[Spikey]

I have to say, SA's line-up didn't really seem interesting. they're debuting a 19yo leg-spinner, of course they're picking 5 bowlers

If this weather keeps hanging around there won't be much play in Brisbane over the next few days.

Yeah was thinking that when I woke up this morning, however it might give the pitch some much needed life that has been lacking for so many seasons. Particularly the test pitch.

 

[The Battlers Prince]

Hang on, the first test isn’t at the Gabba this year is it?

 

[Starfighter]

No, it isn't. Besides, if you think a bit of rainfall will stop them making the Gabba pitch **** you're mistaken.

 

[GoodAreasShane]

Vic squad: Fawad Ahmed, Scott Boland, Jackson Coleman, Travis Dean, Andrew Fekete, Seb Gotch, Peter Handscomb (c), Marcus Harris, Will Pucovski, Matt Short, Chris Tremain, Cameron White

The return to favour of Fawad Ahmed makes the decision to cut him in the first place look rather odd tbh

WA squad: Josh Philippe, Will Bosisto, Hilton Cartwright, Ashton Turner (capt.), Marcus Stoinis, Jon Wells, Josh Inglis, Cam Green, Matt Kelly, Simon Mackin, David Moody, Usman Qadir

Interesting to see Qadir picked straightaway, it's the WACA though so he may not start. WA continue to be able to cobble together a pretty decent looking attack despite having four first choice pacemen missing.

Oh man a match with David Moody, I never miss it

I don't think WA has any other spinners. The used Agar last year but he's in the UAE.

Are Coulter-Nile and Behrendorff injured again?

As far as I'm aware Behrendorff is not playing 4 day cricket this season for the sake of his back.

 

[GoodAreasShane]

NCN is in the T20 squad.

 

[Burgey]

Yeah the Dorf is apparently out of red ball cricket but has been allowed to ply his wares in T20 stuff afaik.

Find a pitch in Australia that isn’t a road and that the powers that be will play a test at.

Jack Edwards, 18, is in line to get his first cap as well, with the state of the pitch in Adelaide likely to determine whether or not Sangha gets the nod over another would-be debutant Daniel Sams.

this seems perfectly logical

 

[Burgey]

The people demand Bertus ffs.

It feels odd that Uppal has played for NSW before Sangha.

I hope they don't try memeing Sangha as an all-rounder.

 

[Midwinter]

At last the Shield starts today !

 

[stephen]

We may even get play at the Gabba today. The sun has peaked through the clouds this morning.

 

[GoodAreasShane]

Here in Adelaide however, I would be shocked if we see even a single ball bowled

Adelaide.

Tasmania 0/3 after 2 overs

"Live Stream will be available closer to the commencement of play"

Sloppy effort CA
