Pretty pointless batting that low, not like he'll get a gig for Australia as a finisher when you have the likes of Symonds, Haddin and Watson in that area.. Have been a bit of a fan of his and hoping he'd eventually play for Australia, in ODIs at least, but doesn't seem likely now.What does everyone think of Travis Birt batting at number 6 in the OD comp?
He did well the other day, but I would really much prefer to see him at 3 or 4.
I doubt he'll play for Australia.
Wow, really sticking your neck out there.On Pomerbash would be surprised if he doesn't play Australia again at one point.
Somewhat disappointed, though it's hard to find fault with anyone in particular. I was hoping for more from Pomersbach; he's not good enough to be number three just yet, especially so because teams went out of their way to find countermeasures for him after he started cutting sick last year. Ronchi has been terrible, but he is horribly out of position opening the batting in ODs, so it's not a surprise. You might even say Voges has been disappointing, but the other side of the coin is that guys like Doropoulos are really starting to show some form. The top order has been shaky for longer than just this season, but the only thing that I'm disappointed by is the guys being used so woefully out of position. It's not good for the team and it's not fair on the player.Casson are you disappointed with your batters this year?
On paper WA always looks terrific, but they rarely make big scores, usually it's just the one batter who contributes each innings, a bit of a worry I think.
Teen fast bowler Hazlewood to make debut
This guy could turn out to be Australia' answer to Ishant Sharma, hope he has a good debut for NSW against the Black Caps...
Give pup some credit Clapo, he's trying to temper expectations. Said he would be the next McGrath two days ago...
Depends on two hammies and one spine imo.Congrats wilf robinson hope a good state career ahead of him,would be a plus too he is an allrounder,you never know when we will need an extra one.
That's what the media have said about Peter George too, even has the batting prowess to match.Give pup some credit Clapo, he's trying to temper expectations. Said he would be the next McGrath two days ago...
Yeah being realistic this time around tbh...Give pup some credit Clapo, he's trying to temper expectations. Said he would be the next McGrath two days ago...
