Michael Neser

[halba]

Aus selectors have missed the ball here

the guy swings the ball by miles on favourable decks - hat trick

You would think if hazlewood is ruled out again, that Neser would come into the XI

 

[Qlder]

He should be in the XI now, however selectors have Boland already in the squad so next in line if Hazlewood out.

In 8 Shield games Neser took 40 Wkts @ 16.67 and made 357 runs @ 35.70, and now in 3 County games has 100 runs @ 33.33 and 12 Wkts @ 20.16....what more does he have to do?

Getting match practice will be better for him in the long run than sitting down the back of the bus for a couple of tests before his likely call up

even a kneejerk halba is right twice a day

Throw enough **** out there and occasionally by pure chance if nothing else there will be at least something not completely braindead

 

[TheJediBrah]

what more does he have to do?

Take 6 for 7 at the 'G

Not fit to tie Boland's bootlaces

Well maybe if Boland didn't jump the queue Neser might have got that as well ?

I just want Neser to bat 8 to avoid the Indian series tail collapses

Happy to see Neser taking wickets, and that hat trick ball was something else. It's great to have him over there if he's needed, but in all likelihood he simply won't be because the Aus attack is going to runthrough England like an Ebola outbreak.

Seems apt - created a bit of noise where it came from but absolutely nothing of note in the UK much like Mitchell Starc

 

[Burgey]

Barring injury Neser won't even be needed. There'll be English batsmen doing the '89 Gooch and asking for a break to deal with their ongoing performance anxiety. He's probably the best bowler in County Cricket rn and can't get a look in at the Aus test side. This series is over already.

This will be the greatest non-event as a contest since Germany put 7 past Brazil in the 2014 World Cup. The similarities are there - lot of hype surrounding the home side masking its obvious frailties, home fans all excited and full of hope.. then they ran into a side slightly better than park standard and fell in a heap. It's done. Stick a fork in it already.

Literally, not even the best bowler at Glamorgan!! 12 wickets at 28 compared to van der Gugten's 21 at 21.

And not the best 'Aussie' bowler in Div 2 either, McAndrew has 15 at 21.

Amusing how Glamorgan have 3 players who have represented Aussie State sides and the only one actually born in Australia plays for Holland.

 

[Burgey]

Look if I’m an England fan I’m not casting aspersions about the birth certificates of blokes playing any sport for any other nation on earth, ok?

Don't be silly, we're the most qualified to do so. And it's nice to throw some back on the self righteous who normally question this kind of behaviour.

Still, you've avoided the point that Neser isn't actually that good anyway.

He’ll destroy England if he’s required, which he likely wont be unless there’s an injury.

Yeah real foresight that from CA, smart thinking for them to bring a couple of ~10 year old kids to the country just so they can go on to play cricket for Australia in 15-20 years time

Glad that Australia have finally caught on to this strategy. Who knows, it might help Australia win an Ashes overseas like Strauss and Prior did.

The 4th innings 0-91 suggests otherwise.

 

[Burgey]

Lol there won't be any 4th innings. Aus will only be betting once.

Would you like to remind me how many tests England have won in Australia since then?
