Inglis has had half a good season in Shield cricket. Don't get me wrong, I like him, but let's chill out a bit with the whole "clearly superior to Carey" bit

Ha and he jags one. With the discussion about the dew taking the variation out of the pitch maybe scorchers regret batting first.

As a Scorchers fan I regretted the decision when they won the toss.

The 2019 WC seems to have been a real turning point in Carey’s batting in OD and FC formats

Stats based on just 1 or 2 matches/innings are irrelevant.

As a general rule, I absolutely agree

Rate both Carey and Inglis myself. But saying one is clearly a better option than the other at this stage is premature imo. The way I view it, it is a good thing to have some competition for the wicketkeeping role when Paine is retired or retrenched

Vince gotta pay this smart. Stay on strike, take the power surge, get a ton

Correct; the Carey numbers are borderline meaningless given that the two had basically identical 2017-18s. Only meaningful area of comparison is that Carey made roughly the same number of runs as Inglis in half the games in 2019-20, and I wouldn't read too much significance into that anyway - it's pretty flimsy evidence.

But 33 Inglis innings for 700-odd runs at 23 in the two seasons before this one isn't screaming 'standout' to me. I like him, I rate him, I hope he's turned a corner and is properly good now - rather than talented and promising. But a couple of tons at Gladys Elphick Park (and the like) isn't enough to declare him heir apparent and support a view that picking Carey is clearly wrong imo.

don't blow this vince

the back half of this knock has been fantastic

 

[Spikey]

it'd be the first ever ton by a Sixer, which makes sense given their openers have mostly sucked for 10 seasons

All while winning multiple titles. Shows the superiority of the city.

if only he were here to see this

 

[Burgey]

Hughes surely knock one away for a single here

 

[Spikey]

Surely you 'slip' as you take off for the run there

 

[Spikey]

Vince's fault!
