The Cricket Thread (part 6) - from July 2023 (Bartholemew Frinton-Smythe, Humphrey Wigbert-Porter, and Quinten Breckenridge)

Looking forward to seeing Starc back…

This chase will be done by midnight EST.

Lol.
This is why I’m blocking you.

I’m sure you’re very sensible on all the other threads, but I just can’t have that constant ridiculous negativity in my life.

CYA.

We haven’t made enough runs given this bowling attack

Ugh, dropping catches won’t help either

Shocker by Inglis. That’s a regulation keepers’ catch

Just 147 runs off…

And over two hours.

Smartarse needs a ‘sarcastic’ font.

Green seems to be in a bit of a funk at the moment.

His bowling in the white ball stuff looks ordinary and he isn’t batting with much intent. I know he copped a concussion a couple of weeks back obviously but yeah.

Our all-rounders aren’t in great shape coming into a World Cup as we speak.

Stoin - Hasn’t made a score of 30 or more in his last 11 innings. Bowling had been ‘ok’ up until last night.

Maxwell - Recurrence of the pain in his broken leg. Very little cricket.

Marsh - Hasn’t been bowling at all. You know what you get with his batting. Certainly capable of being a match winner on his day.

Green - As mentioned earlier

Head (all rounder of sorts) - injured

Agar (all rounder of sorts) - Barely played

Australia really need to turf stoinis. He will play one good innings out of every 6 or 7. The rest of the time he is absolutely bang average

The Aussie ‘summer’ of cricket starting today!

Queensland and Western Australia playing in the Mercantile Mutual Cup.

I’m going to pretend it’s still called that anyway. The halcyon days!

Bowling second has worked really well the past 4 matches so give it a 5th go!

lolnope.
Don’t bowl there, Ashley.

or there…
Might be a long game…

Careful. This is a happy clapper only zone when Australia are playing.

That’s more betterer.
Spencer. Don’t know where I got Ashley from, although to be fair he is on debut. Which is…weird.

Looked a bit of a nude nut, but we’ll take it!
Well done, Hazlewood.
