One of which was a shield final in which he bowled a ton of overs, impressed everybody and earned him his test spot.Cummins only had 3 FC games before his Test debut in SA
The difficulty in selecting estate sides is that you'd have to first decide whether you are going to reward the people who have serve the estate over a long period of time or whether you'd pick the players who went on to excel at the highest level despite performing to a lesser extent in the first class level. Copeland vs Cummins is a fine example for this. Same goes for Gilchrist aswell who only played handful of games for NSW and non as a keeper I think.Anyway if you pick anyone who is eligible regardless of their performancesIf you replace Taylor with Trumper, that's stronger than every all time XI except maybe WI. Weren't Gilchrist and O'Reilly NSWers too?
I mean they had to literally cheat to win the game..Can anyone from NSW explain to me how you can have an ATG cricket side as good as a Rest of the world side but can't even beat Queensland at rugby?
Ummm Ironmonger is statistically one of the best spin bowlers in historynot much in the way of spin
Mick Lewis says helloQueensland and NSW both as bad as each other tbh. No Victorians ever cheated. Though our mums have been known to spike our beans with diuretics
League. Rugby is the one with 15 players that Argentina thrashed in the other day.Can anyone from NSW explain to me how you can have an ATG cricket side as good as a Rest of the world side but can't even beat Queensland at rugby?
