Australia Off Season 2013 thread.

NUFAN

Y no Afghanistan flag
Your a good egg Brockley.

Does this thread usually turn into the domestic thread during the season or do we start up a new one? I'm just asking as I'm keen for some predictions

Gem showing Ryobi Cup.
BTW Jake doran 153 in NSW academy vs qld academy,and NSW leg spinner fallins 4 wkts..
Fallins is replacing Zampa in First Grade at Sutherland by the sounds of things, and by the sounds of things he's rated pretty highly. As seems to happen with 17-year-old leg spinners at the moment.

Dutch Brett Lee has just picked up 5/9 against Canada in an ODI. They're 13/6 so still four more wickets available if he wants them; a chance for the best ever ODI figures even?

Canada have been giving Holland a bit of a pasting on that tour before now as well; I do wonder how far away he is from getting a Tassie call-up this season.
whats the general consensus on van der gugten? hes a good mate of my older brother and ive been following his career pretty closely but its been hard to actually see much of him bowling so wondering what you ****s who may have seen more of him than me think

I haven't seen him a while now but the last time I did see him a bowl he seemed a bit "bowling machine". He has a very strong action (as you get from copying Brett Lee as a kid if you do it well, I guess..) but while the pace he gets (around 140 clicks) is fast enough to just castle blokes at lower levels, I think he'll need to either become more reliable at bowling to a plan or start moving the ball off the straight to be a good Shield bowler. I like him though; actually played against him once. He played all his junior cricket in my association.
