So few bouncy pitches these days though I doubt anyone remembers it exists.Fly slip a chronically under rated position on bouncy decks
Nah there's plenty in the wicket if they get it right, for now. This is the kind of wicket McGrath would take 5/20 on regularly.Yea really need one of those half chances to carry. This is going to be brutal now. Only the batsmen can get themselves out henceforth.
They doDecent start, hopefully these two can put on 50+ in the powerplay
They're just not consistent enough to do it. There's only a little bit of movement and good value for shots. Granted, we'd be on at least fifteen fewer if Shaheen had bowled with a modicum of control.really need to get wickets now while the ball is a bit new and the wicket is fresh
It's a really, really good cricket wicket IMO. Like you said plenty in it for the batsmen but also if you bowl well you will be asking questions.They're just not consistent enough to do it.

Still lacking in pace compared to what it should be IMO. I see it being very easy once the shine comes off the ball.It's a really, really good cricket wicket IMO. Like you said plenty in it for the batsmen but also if you bowl well you will be asking questions.
Better batting wicket than previous ones at Optus Stadium but there will be regular wicket taking opportunities throughout the game which you haven't been able to say about some of the roadier pitches we've had over the last decade
Yeah but these bowlers aren't McGrath. Cummins and Haze will get much more out of their first spellsNah there's plenty in the wicket if they get it right, for now. This is the kind of wicket McGrath would take 5/20 on regularly.
It will get worse later though, really need to get wickets now while the ball is a bit new and the wicket is fresh
If it sounds like an arsehorn...Why does Ian Smith always sound like he's got a thorn stuck in his a$s?
