Australian Domestic Season 2011-12

[adub]

The best Victorian cricketer.

That spell of spin bowling by John Holland last night was nothing short of phenomenal. I honestly didn't think Holland was even capable of bowling as half as good as that.

Tom Cooper has come of age this season as well.

 

[Sylvester]

Lalor last 2 wickets weren't the best but seems to come with being a leftie.

Faulkner gets Khawaja early.

 

[Spikey]

so we just shifted the collapse from the first innings to the second innings. this is actually a bit worse really

playing abbott over a batsman really looking like a stupid(er) call

I would've preferred having Hauritz play but not bowl at all over Abbott.

 

[Spikey]

that - and many other things - would have made more sense. guess the plus side is it looks like it'll be an easy 'abbott out, haddin in' for next match, if haddin is still with us.


oh bad light. goodie. maybe we scrap out another draw after losing first innings points

Picking Hauritz but refusing to bowl him under any circumstances wouldn't have made much sense at all actually but I think it would've been a better option than what we did.

did ritz kill your mother or something

Oh FTR I actually agree that picking Hauritz and bowling him > picking Hauritz and not bowling him > picking Abbott. I was just making the B > C point rather than my usual Hauritz-bashing tbh.

 

[Spikey]

picking Hauritz and bowling him > picking SOK and bowling him > picking Hauritz and not bowling him > picking SOK and not bowling him > picking Daniel Smith as a batsman > picking Timm Van Der Gugten and bowling him > picking Abbott = picking aaron bird as a batsman


iirc

 

[ajdude]

picking aaron bird as a batsman

did that actually ever happen, serious question

 

[Ruckus]

Lalor continuing his good start at FC level. Copes though doesn't look like he'll ever get a wicket. I really thought he was going to be a good 'un, but it looks like the batsmen have simply decided they're going to see him off and let him go for 1.5 rpo but still be there for pies at the other end.

Yeah what is going on with him? He is still a good bowler, but the poor bloke can't even buy a wicket atm.

 

[Midwinter]

He's building pressure, something that has only recently been rediscovered in the Antipodes.

Who is bowling the pies at the other end ?

 

[Spikey]

stephenokeefe72 @pmnevill fastest blues keeper ever to 1000 runs! To think 3 years ago was looking in the classifieds for a job. Well done mate, 9000 to go about 1 hour ago


so that's how NSW find some of their players. Makes sense

 

[uvelocity]

well nsw don't pick up other state's slops, so seems fair enough.

 

[Noble One]

Funny call to make considering Nevill jumped over to NSW.

Mitch Marsh hasn't reached 50 yet this Shield season in 7 innings but he's taken 17 wickets @ 18. Really wasn't what I was expecting of him this season at all...

He's a handy bowler who could end up being a good No.8. The all rounder talk was always bull**** I reckon. At FC level at least. Can do a job swinging in the short forms. But I just can't see him being a top 6 bat in Tests which is what some of the fan bois are pushing.

He's the shiz, Mitch Marsh for 10,000 runs @45+ and 500 wickets @<27 in tests (injuries permitting)
