[TumTum]

Martin > Williamson

 

[_Ed_]

Bracewell showing faith - takes a single off the third ball of the over.

 

[straw man]

Martin survives the over

Bracewell to hit a six for the 50 and 400

 

[Spikey]

Harris, Cummins, Johnson, Watson and Marsh all out

 

[BeeGee]

Over 91.6: Pattinson to Martin, no run, bouncer, ducked under
Over 92.6: Cutting to Martin, no run, bouncer, left alone

Stupid bowling.

 

[Spark]

Harris, Cummins, Johnson, Watson and Marsh all out

**** me.

So...

um...

Warner
Hughes
Khawaja
Ponting
Clarke
Hussey
Haddin
Copeland
Siddle
Pattinson/Cutting/Bollinger/???
Lyon

 

[Spikey]

Bollinger no chance - hamstring is 21 days usually. it'll be H i L f

 

[Spark]

Not Pattinson? He was taken on the SL tour...

 

[_Ed_]

50 for Bracewell. Excellent.

 

[BeeGee]

Bollinger no chance - hamstring is 21 days usually. it'll be H i L f

Pattinson, surely. He's bowled rings around Hilf in this game.

 

[Spikey]

Not Pattinson? He was taken on the SL tour...

yeah but we love hilf

 

[_Ed_]

Over 94.2: Cutting to Bracewell, SIX, smashed over the mid wicket fence as Bracewell gives Cutting the treatment



Edit: And another next ball!

 

[robelinda]

Should be easy to replace those guys, Warner to open, Pattinson or Cutting for Johnson, Copeland for Cummins. Not a bad lineup at all.

 

[Athlai]

Cutting got owned by Dougeh that over.

 

[Furball]

Christ, tough selection call. None of the A team boys have covered themselves in glory really.

 

[BeeGee]

Over 95.4: Beer to Martin, no run, solid in defence
Over 95.5: Beer to Martin, no run, defends well

Is it really Martin batting? Or is it Taylor in a Martin mask and wig?

 

[straw man]

Bowling spin to Martin is interesting.

In my minds eye Bracewell bats like a young Chris Cairns (barely saw him v Zim)

 

[Sylvester]

Patterson looks to be the best of the bunch. Unless we do another Cummins and promote Jackson Bird

 

[howardj]

Copeland
Siddle
Pattinson
Lyon

Greenhorn with a capital G

Siddle as leader of the attack teehee

 

[Blakey]

Was about to ask how good these A bowlers are. i.e. would they walk into any NZ domestic team yada yada but then realised what a silly question that was.

They can't even get Martin out. AND he's smoked a beautiful four.
