Who are these blokes commentating the QLD/SA stream? Good addition to the stream imo.

Test Match Sofa iirc

I just saw that Cranmer actually plays for SA, thought he was just a young bloke looking to get into radio or something.

heh, yeah he comes across that way, tbh.

Fair bit of nip around, humid today. Bit surprised to see Worrall get the gig ahead of Richardson.

it was really nice of sa to back up that call i made the other day about them considering richardson as an LO only player, instead of making me taste it

Anyone else wondering whether Lyon's mainly getting a game under instruction from CA?

 

[Spikey]

lyon's actually your number 4 batsman

 

[Top_Cat]

Cutting's bowling arse. **** length for AO.

 

[Spikey]

Or 5, even

Nah these guys have actually left the house and picked up a cricket bat iirc.

 

[robelinda]

Awesome, actual commentary on the stream, and in the mcg match theres replays too! Too good. I'm getting hard watching both matches.....

Spoken like a guy who has never played cricket IN his house.

Tennis ball cricket in the corridors ftw.

 

[NUFAN]

Tempted to download Adobe at work and listen to the stream, just don't quite have the cojones..

Is Ferguson actually knuckling down for a change? Don't normally see with a strike rate around 30.

Reckon if Klinger can put together a huge first half of the summer he's a big chance of knocking Cowan out of the Test side. Selectors seem to love the idea of having a 'foil' for Warner at the other end. Reckon he could be well suited to it.

How unlike him.

 

[Spikey]

interesting that Hauritz is playing. I was thinking the other day that with Lyon in a slump and Beer seemingly out of favour, CA demanding Hauritz play instead of Boyce would make a bit more sense. And of course since then Holland got injured.

Relative to an uber-attacking bat like Warner, yeah. But his role for SA has been the opposite; he's the gun, the bloke at the other end is the foil and it's arguably been the freedom that gives which saw him score in buckets. This is as opposed to when he was playing for Vic where he was the foil and didn't score.

Me, I preferred it when he was up for the number 3 spot where he could lead. Now, opening, I dunno....

EDIT: First look at Head, looks confident!

Agreed, should have at least have been given a chance by now.

 

[Spikey]

well he was **** for so long. then had two good seasons. but then his performances dropped again. so it's pretty understandable why he hasn't.

 

[Chook Herron]

I've been impressed with Alex Doolan this year. When he first broke into the Tassie side, I didn't think much of him and put him in the same boat as Jason Wells. Seems a lot more confident and is being more consistent. Hope he can keep it up

 

[Prince EWS]

So much Horrigan. Not even trying to hide it. WAC.

McKay bowling bouncers at Punter. 4 in the over.
