The Jerome Taylor ton was gross.

From frontline batsmen Nicholls and Marnus have some stinkers in recent times.

Haha I didn't see the Taylor ton, but given he's almost certainly the worst batsman to have a Test ton it had to be up there.

Good call on Nicholls, though I think Marnus's luckiest/worst innings didn't end up tons. Might be misremembering things.

Three and a half Tests into the series and they finally, finally put a stacked offside field against Crawley.

Aus lacking some serious young Pacey fast bowlers eg jhye Richardson or Lance Morris. Pity all injured and injury prone. That's the only weakness for most batters.

Wasn't the one at Adelaide last Ashes series absolutely gross? Had one of the biggest dollies of all time to drop him on like 97 IIRC

Never mind Anderson, are we witnessing the end of Hazlewood's Test career?

I think being honest he'll still remain in the frame especially because our depth is a little bit dubious (especially younger depth), but equally he's 32 and has been really injury-prone. I'd definitely think about making him a permanent white-ball only bowler.

In contrast, Starc has been seriously impressive. The one Australian bowler in the last few Tests that can hold his head high.

It's only dubious because we never give anyone else a go

For some reason I thought he got out in the 90's there. Yeah, fair call.

They should've given the ball to marsh by over 12. it's 30 overs and the game is gone , Cummins very weak captaincy, it's not like they have to worry about injury to him.
