The 2022 Cricket Thread officially here

Gilly with some lovely words for Carey at the presentation of his cap. Great access for sure, perhaps some moments are better kept private.

yeah that was my thoughts

felt a bit like a made for TV job… Is it about Carey or Gilly?

It’s hard to work from home Day 1 of a home Ashes series

Absolutely, sounded scripted and lacked heart.

I still love the great man Gilly

Time has not been kind to Matty Hayden

Saw Ricky Ponting down at BCF on the weekend, still as fit as a fiddle.

Dear lord, Hayden looks like but sounds like a less eloquent Baron Harkkonen. Get that thing off my Television screen.

Assuming England go with Leach over Broad, I don’t mind their bowling mix, saving the two old seamers for the pink ball tests. Interested to see how Robinson, Wood & Leach fair. It’s their batting which I can’t see making 300+ unless Root makes a ton every inngs. Even Starc will probably takes wickets against that top order.

Cummins following in the great traditions of Aussie Captains and losing the toss. lol

England to finish the day on 2-280, Starc 0/77 at 5 rpo

So we’re bowling first on a green-top, in humid and cloudy conditions with the new Kookaburra ball that has been designed to stay harder for longer, with a more raised seam and an extra layer of lacquer to help it keep it’s shine. And we have the best pace battery in world cricket.

Let’s do this!

Bowling first at the Gabba is a stupid idea, regardless of your bowlers

we’re done

Predictions are a total mug’s game.
Having said that, 7/240.
