Australian Domestic Season 2018/19

[Prince EWS]

He played some nice cover drives though

He looked awesome the whole innings. Defended several balls he would've been bowled by last season perfectly.

I just started watching from the end but he played some great shots

While there have been some absolutely horrific collapses in Shield so far (looking at you QLD/NSW), at least there's been a bunch of centuries as well

Some being a bit hard on Renshaw, tbh, couple of decent knackers this game. Might have worked a bit harder to keep out the first one but was (un)lucky to even get wood on the nick in the second dig.

Good to see the Matthew Wade renaissance is well and truly alive.

Wouldn't mind him playing as a bat in the Test team at all. He's clearly better than Labuscagne

 

[Gnske]

The younger commentator on the SA stream has to be Bill Lawry's son. Has the face and the beak.

In other news I pray this isn't the only ton Heazlett makes this season.

 

[NUFAN]

I really want to see Heazlett kick on this year with a 800+ runs season.

143 @ 47.66 after his unbeaten 118. Good to see from the former Australian representative.

 

[Burgey]

Wests standing by Hughes, saying he told Warner he was a disgrace and shouldn’t be playing cricket. Denial any mention of Phillip made at all.

SteveNZ posted the link in the "......doesnt really deserve a thread" thread.

Tbf that’s where most NZ cricket posts belong.

Didn't want to impose on your domestic realm, old buddy.

I think the more correct statement would be 'that's where most David Warner-related posts belong'. Or at least in an ideal world. Let him become a Jesse Ryder-style cash for hire sort of guy that everyone knows could still play international cricket but would prefer didn't.

So it's official, Warner has the thinnest skin in the game.

I don’t know too many people who disagree with that tbh. Bloke is obviously nowhere near in a head space to play international cricket. And obviously wasn’t before the sand paper fiasco either

 

[Redbacks]

True, but I think it also shows he’s the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the poor culture or sledging throughout all levels of Australian cricket.

CA getting slammed and sweeping it under the carpet is such a surprise

Don’t wanna speculate but I suspect there’s a **** load of residual animosity from parties involved today.

Dunno if Warner will ever play for Aus again after today’s events and everything else.

 

[Second Spitter]

Spoke to a mate who plays 1st Grade for UNSW. Apparently, jibes about stacking shelves at Coles cross his "line", as well.

On an unrelated point, does anybody have Joe Root's email address?

Pure speculation on my behalf but let's roll with it as it's more fun that way

Everything that I've seen from Warner & his family screams out "damage control" and the powers that be know it plus he's on the nose with the public so he's gone

Team wanted him punted from the hotel and I think that speaks volumes

Bancroft, at best, is guilty of temporary insanity (I don't believe that) and is expendable anyway but might get another shot if Langer steps in

Smith will be back & he's the only one that I feel remotely sorry for
