I was concerned he would be gun barrel straight. He was for a little of the first innings once the ball got old, but having some natural shape away makes a big difference.Completely changed my tune on Ben Sears on this tour. His attitude is spot on - runs in hard, gets in line with the bat, chases in the outfield, smart cricketer, too. Not scared of anyone.
Kuggs talent should be questionedBang.
Mitchell McClenaghan was on SENZ questioning the young bowlers talent in the aftermath of the first test.
Sears and O'Rourke are still in development but hopefully this shows Stead and Wells you can be braver.
Itchy trigger finger?Memory of a goldfish?
Head owes Ben Duckett and the English team a huge debt of gratitude for showing him how to play aggressively.Head is lucky enough to play BazBall tho. God loves him, and that is extremely important for a test cricketer.
Haha yeah but he was more skeptical of guys outside the team. He wasn't alone tbf. We love a collective wrist slit after a test loss.Kuggs talent should be questioned
I'm fine with Davies lower for the time being, but he's clearly NSW's best hope at the moment and they need back him. Same as they need to back Green in this Australian team. He is miles ahead of NSW's next best, who unfortunately has been Henriques who I hoped would have been discarded by now, if you're talking about old fossils taking up middle order spots.Also re: the fossils. If CA had some spine they'd tell NSW to pick Ollie Davies at 3. No ifs, buts, or maybes, we need to have a proper look at how good he actually is.
That was with a dukes that was dog food after 10 overs, tbf.Daily reminder this is the exact situation England BazBalled their way out of in our 3-0 loss there 3-4 times.
He's batting below Gilkes and the ghost of Henriques. He needs to bat 4 at worstI'm fine with Davies lower for the time being, but he's clearly NSW's best hope at the moment and they need back him.
