Trying to think if this Aussie tail is the best tail I've ever seen.

...will be even better if Harris replaces Haze (though he should replace Starc)

Not really been watching much cricket in the West Indies in recent times (or much overseas cricket at all), what the hell is up with these balls leaving insane cherries on the bats?
They use a variety of Duke balls in the West Indies now. I don't think they're actually the same as the balls they use in the UK; they're specially made for the Caribbean I think. I hadn't noticed the cherries but it must be related.

Funny how times change. Can you imagine offering up a pitch like this when Warne was playing?

Supposedly a lower quality duke than used in England.

Saw the Darsh replay and he definitely opened the face of the bat. Undone by the bounce but no foot movement and bad shot selection. IE he did a Marsh.

Some of the South African ones where they'd pick combinations of Pollock, Klusener, Symcox, Hall, Richardson and Boucher between 7-10 were pretty ridiculous.

Yes of course, forgot them for a moment
