    ***Official*** South Africa in Australia 2012

    Hastings, Hazlewood and Johnson called up for Perth as well as Starc. Covering all the bases indeed!

    Evan Gulbis hoping for at least 1 run this Sheild match to open his career account.

    ***Official*** South Africa in Australia 2012

    Yeah I should expand on this. He's a talented bat, don't get me wrong. But he hasn't learnt how to get off strike just yet - it's a bit all or nothing with him. He's quite easily tied down - we've seen this in all forms of the game, he digs himself into a hole a bit. Has some pretty clear...

    ***Official*** South Africa in Australia 2012

    Got some issues behind the stumps I think. Wade's glovework needs huge work (easy to say after today, but it's something that has been raised a fair bit). Plus, he gets very bogged down with the bat.

    ***Official*** England in India

    Would love to meet the person who thought it would be a good idea to give Manjrekar a microphone... Bloke is a dead set goose. Shut up and let Warne and Dravid talk.

    ***Official*** Australian Domestic Thread 2012/13

    Might sound ridiculous, but a couple of good judges reckon Higgs is the second best spinner in he country for the last few years behind Lyon. He's been out of FC cricket for a while but all reports are his hoping has been terrific for a few years in the futures league.

    Can't find the video, but what about the 'mind the windows, tino' incident?

    Is it just forum threads? Been some good feature articles over the years too; would be good to see a few of them in print too.

    And to be fair to Cowan, he looked really good today. His best Test innings so far by a distance.

    ***Official*** South Africa in Australia 2012

    Yep think he's a way off a recall yet. His attitude hasn't impressed many insiders at all in he team. Needs to acknowledge some faults with the bat and work hard on his fielding before they look to him again. Didn't make a great impression in and around the squad last time.

    *Official* Road to 2013 Ashes

    No way. Bloody lucky to be there now, if Hilditch and co were stronger he'd have been out of the side in 2009.

    ***Official*** Australian Domestic Thread 2012/13

    Reckon that Scott Henry will probably get till Xmas in the side to have a fair crack at opening. Dawson 12th man in Brisbane so you'd have to assume he's pretty close to a call up. Maddinson will get another game or 2 yet though. For me, looks like: Nevill Henry Maddinson Smith Dawson...

    Hughes and Khawaja FC ton count for 2012/13 summer: 0. 5 tons from each before they are considered for Test selection again, please. Hard for anyone to know yet if they have fixed their glaring weaknesses since they last played as they haven't made big runs consistently to prove it. Oh how I...

    Spin bowlers in Australia

    Was at every day of this match. Ovation for S Waugh was something special. A few things: 1. How underrated is Kumble? What a wonderful bowler. Much better than he gets credit for. 2. Any chance of the Katich hundred on video Rob? Best innings of his Test career. Can't believe he was dropped for...

    ***Official*** South Africa in Australia 2012

    I'd have to disagree, he's very good with the gloves. Streets ahead of Wade. His batting has been disappointing but his glovework and feet are exceptional. Wade to me looks like a very good batsman who can keep reasonably well. Can see him as a specialist bat in a year if he's still around.

    ***Official*** South Africa in Australia 2012

    I've got huge concerns over Wade's glovework. Would want to improve that area dramatically or the spot could be Paine's vs SL.

    Playing Starc vs South Africa and Aus 'A' selection

    Works both ways though doesn't it. As much as it might be handy for him to have a look at the South Africans, it could work the other way with them getting an equally good look at him. Think the 'A' side isn't too bad. Quite a few unknown quantities outside of Shield cricket. Reckon we would...
