4th Test at Sydney (?) - Jan 5-9 2022

[Nintendo]

I'm astounded there is talk of Ussie being dropped.

I'm sorry, but if a white Australian player made back-to-back hundreds, there is no way in hell he would be dropped under any circumstances (beyond him engaging in some wrong conduct on or off the field) for the next test.

Why on earth are you making this a race thing.

 

[Burgey]

Fmd imagine if they leave out Boland and Khawaja next test. It’ll make what happened to George Floyd seem like a misdemeanour to vicleggie.

Because literally no other player would ever be dropped after scoring back to back hundreds...not for ****ing Travis Head or Marcus Harris at least.

Good point. Boland took those wickets in Melbourne and was undroppable for the next test.

My point is that this is what should happen here with Uz.

 

[GIMH]

Future generations of CWers will see this thread title and wonder if we ever did confirm where the Test was being played

Have a breather, champ

 

[Gob]

I think its well established by now that vicleggie is a ****ing moron but yeah talks of Usman being dropped is trash

Don't need one. I'm not a 45 year old man who is uncomfortable with his views being challenged.

Langer is though, apparently.

Neither has Khawaja yet, so how about you stop whacking off to the thought of it because you desperately want everyone to be racist

Also, on declaration. In hindsight the extra time definetekyll

I don't agree with the policy, but at the end of the day the selectors are backing Harris. It's not a race thing. Either we drop the 22 YO all-rounder averaging 33/28, a guy averaging 70 for the series, or drop ussie and have Harris open.

Theres obviously bias involved if Harris plays over Khawaja but it's not racially motivated, Langer has described Harris as a "little brother" and has a notorious WA bias, it's a ****ed up form of nepotism if anything .

 

[GIMH]

Seems like this the thread to argue about things that haven’t happened but if they did would be racist?

 

[Gnske]

He doesn't have to want. There's at least three I can see on this page of the thread alone.

 

[jcas0167]

Buttler going home, presumably Pope did well enough to be trusted with the gloves for the last test?

 

[Nintendo]

Ben foakes was treated like a dirty cumrag by England managment, therefore England are actually racially biased towards white people. #Yorkshiregate was simply a smokescreen to hide the real truth.

 

[Heboric]

I had images of Jimmy and that game against Sri Lanka going through my mind, but well done to him. Not his job to teach the other shits how to bat properly

 

[Gnske]

If race doesn't exist, what can we really say about Yorkshire?

Oh Harris is from WA?

My bad, it may have just been Langer being a nepotistic ****.

Makes me hate Langer even more tbh. Putting the interests of his state above the team. Such a punchable guy.

 

[Apex Predator]

Harris is a spud.. But instead of Usman Australia would be better served to hand a debut to Henry Hunt in Hobart. Usman should be fixed as opener in coming sub Continent tours.

 

[TheJediBrah]

Usman should be fixed as opener in coming sub Continent tours.

Something you never would have expected to hear a few years ago. Maybe he'll do a Damien Martyn turn around from being a spinner's walking wicket

 

[TheJediBrah]

No reply because I'm right on all counts, and your wimpy attempt to pretend that it likely isn't racial, failed.

My bad, it may have just been Langer being a nepotistic ****.

great
