***Official*** India's Tour of Australia 2020/21 - General discussion

Ryan Harris told a group that a fast medium bowler at full pace can swing (not seam) the ball more than a fast bowler even though the fast bowler takes some pace off.
I see his point IMO comparing Cummins and Hazlewood.
Yes Cummins can move the ball but mostly off the seam.
Glen McGrath is a good example of Rhino's theory.

Moises Henriques replaces him. (Cam Green) was in consideration, but it's about the number of overs Moises can give us. The pitch got better as it went on in the last game.

Just reading this, and it seems off to me. Moises was injured last summer and barely bowled, and even in the 2ish year's before that, I struggle to remember him bowling big overs in white-ball cricket. Even in the shield this year green bowled 24 overs in 2 games compared to Henriques 10 in 3. Green us also definitely going to give you more quality per over then moise.

Ide understand if green was injured again but nothing has been communicated by CA about that.

 

[Spikey]

say, if it was about the overs, they could have simply picked Dermo Sabba "Ultimate" Abbott

Yeah it doesn't sound like they considered Abbott as a potential 7 at all. Mark Waugh evidently the boy who cried wolf here.

If mark waugh were national selector we would have world peace AND sean Abbott playing for aus in all formats.

Even if he wasn't fit to bowl.

Would England leave ben stokes out of the team if he wasn't fit to bowl?

 

[GoodAreasShane]

Saini almost reminds me of Chris Morris a bit, except even more inaccurate

 

[stephen]

Sabba reminds me of Ryan Harris as a batsman. Not in style but in ability. Well suited to number 8 but number 7 is probably beyond his ability.

 

[Nintendo]

Smith just casually decides to hit 2 of the 4 fastest men's odi tons for Australia back to back, what a freak.

 

[Nintendo]

This is the best I've seen smith bat since the ashes last year, he is going to absolutely demolish India in the tests.

@Nintendo just wondering if you knew there is actually a game thread?

[Nintendo]

No, I did not.know that. Thank you for the information!

So the big question of whether a batting or bowling allrounder should replace Stoinis, came down to Henriques facing 1 ball

Henriques is gonna go at 6.5+ an over.

 

[aussie tragic]

With Warner groin injury, Australia doesn't have a spare opener in their white-ball squad. Pucovski for a call up?

Very much a like-for-like replacement for Stoinis then

They have wade and stoinis in there, philippe is also in the backups I think. Ridiculous that heazlett isn't in the squad tbf.

 

[honestbharani]

Stoinis is already injured though? So who opens? Labu?

 

[Spikey]

Wade is considered the back-up I believe, and he'll be it.


but for once I wouldn't mind Carey being shifted to the top, and then Green comes into the team.

who could have predicted that Moz would be asked to do more with the ball than the bat......but he did the job with the bat. made sure Maxwell stayed on strike
