**Official** Australia in Sri Lanka Jan - Feb 2025

[Nintendo]

Webster is so much fun. Test debut at 31. Smashes India and bumrah around on an inconsistent green top and takes some poles bowling medium pace. Now he's come to Sri Lanka, made a handy 31 during a classic Australian collapse on a spinning deck, taken 2 wickets bowling offies and taken a few blinders with his 6 foot 8 buckets. What can't he do?

All out for 49

lol I read this as dick

 

[Spikey]

Webster now averaging 50.00 with the bat and 24.00 with the ball

and an average of one cheat attempt at a catch each match. can't trust those tasmanians

 

[Spark]

Yeah, that bounced

Good thing the camerawork was up to par.

Channel 7 would have missed it if it was their blokes in charge

before the WTC final, shane warne Keshav Maharaj should tell his team-mates to stand their ground for any catches Herschelle Gibbs Beau Webster takes

Would be even better if he never played a test again when green comes back. Won't happen, but he'd 100% be one of those cult "guess the test cricketer" type guys in 30 years.

I'd prefer Green to slot in for Marnus at this point tbh.

 

[Spikey]

cameron green, now there's a man who takes legitimate catches

 

[Qlder]

So funny, Webster has 1 wkt @ 66.00 bowling medium pace and 2 wkts @ 3.00 bowling spin

 

[Anthony Clayden]

Webster and Green in the gully, they would cover a lot of the arc

 

[Starfighter]

I haven't seen anyone warm up like that before

Gary sobers levels of quality. He did similar in FC

He's pretty stylish too with the ear piercing..

 

[Spikey]

halba why aren't you saying anything about beau webster, the cheating catcher.

 

[halba]

Green is 100% a lock. his last knock was 174* against NZ. He will be the best bat in the side once Smith retires. He returns automatically, hes also the future long term captain of the side as Cummins isnt guaranteed to keep playing consistently he is injured now and 30 plus.

Probably dont see Green as an all rounder given the back stress fractures but its probably OK given his batting is good. Hes like a Tall Ponting. Both athletic in the gully region and good fielders, catchers.

Webster and others will be there as specialist all rounders.

Yeah i saw it, totally a cheat there. Ball Hit the ground and claimed a catch and everyone had the disrespect to walk off almost. Luckily the camera angle got it in the last split second, the cheating.

thank you halba. for a second i thought the cheating catcher had paid you off.

 

[Shady Slim]

i was about to say full credit to peiris for coming out for this match and showing he’s not utter mud but then he threw a real pressure release drag down into that last over

 

[halba]

thank you halba. for a second i thought the cheating catcher had paid you off.

Definitely not, i was about to comment on it actually but forgot.

This game is basically over, this total isnt competitive unless the pitch is a literal minefield. This team is the best aussie side since the peak aus team- this is because it has a spin attack.
