Most definitely. Great to see the newbies playing well for the Windies.

Head to the rescue (again).

Where was he this last test?

Mostly in the pavilion.

test cricket alive and well, not sure having Cam Smith in is the right choice either, i get Smith made runs in the 2nd dig but for mine I think he is better suited at 4 and bring in a specialist opener. Kudos to the Windies and their bowling attack, fantastic to watch Yeah, I think Cam Smith should...

Two great finishes in the last 24 hours, and showing that test cricket is still the best form of the game.

PS - I bet GIAE is itching to post again on FN.

Thank you, I turned it off. No reason, just because I could (now).

The irony of 711 going into an Indian tour

Careful now......

Could be the re-emergence or death of Bazball.

Very true the rest just follow the woke agenda.

Ha ha, Popeye! Touché! But still the deadest of dead rubbers.

How can a two test series have any dead rubbers?

Next Test match is a dead rubber followed by three dead rubbers against the hopeless Windies. No wonder Premier Mali was whingeing - what’s the attraction @ the Adelaide Oval so-called upcoming “Test”? I know - it’s the pissup and to go along to see and to be seen. Pretty much why you go to any spo...

^ Not that I don't rate Lyon or dislike him. That effort to go out and bat on one leg in england was phenomenal! I still think that its best to go out whilst on top rather than risk fading out and staying around too long and thus stifle the selectors to push for the next gen of players. Warne could ...

bloodypassit wrote: ↑Mon Dec 18, 2023 11:08 am That's why Australia is the best cricket nation in the world

For now, yes. The average age is the only worry (3-4 years time).

The fact that there will soon be 2 x Australia squads (T20 and test) shows the ACB already need their heads read. Money is first consideration, not improvement or nurturing of test cricket. You have a point with Zampa, BUT stats only seem to be a consideration when selectors try and justify a selec...

Well that was easier than I thought. The grandpas still can play.

At least after the Sydney test, no more Warner. ;-) And well done Mitchell Johnson for speaking his mind, whether people agree with him or not. :thumbup: All hail MJ!!! Mj stood down from Triple M after his comments , what odds Candice is behind that one ... I saw somewhere today where it said MJ w...

GIAE you have gone quiet !!! We can see you have been online since the WC.. After all these years, now finally speechless. Who'd have thought. Could almost claim it as another win for Australia. :thumbup: He might have to change is name from GIAE to Madeline ...... The mighty poms lost to West Indi...

Are there any worthwhile sports that australia are currently better than England at.

We couldn't think of any.

He'll argue it's not an important format of the game.

It was in 2019 (conveniently)

Sounds of silence by 110k plus (India cricket final)

Test champions, now ODI champions. Masterstroke risking Head (injured at start of tournament)- and sending them in after winning the toss, very brave. Bravo!

India will PUMP either SA or Aus. Please let it be AUS, I would love to see our bowlers, especially Starc get destroyed by India! Our bowlers? So you want to see your own countrymen destroyed? I hope whoever faces India in the final makes it a competitive match. Yes, Australia is where I live. Wher...

They should win, but all it takes is one off day. Two best teams in it at least.

India deserve it, have played well all-round. That said, whilst you're in it, you're a chance. Gut feeling that Saffers might get up tonight, but hope I'm wrong. Good thing you were wrong. India should be red-hot favourites but in a Final - anything can happen! Surprising that this could be the 4th...
