I reckon more than the pitch, it was the mindset of English batters that led to their eventual capitulation. Though I agree serving rank turners where whoever bats first, wins should not happen in international matches. Skill and not luck (toss) should dicatate who wins the game.

Why are England so stubborn about turning pitches?

😂

Vastly improved England are charging towards the Ashes

Nope. They did an Atherton!

Painey reinventing himself as Australia’s next off spinning GOAT!
😁

WATCH: Tim Paine opens the bowling and takes a wicket in Tasmanian cricket

Why can’t we have a series of matches b/w aus and aus a.

Veterans will get (much needed) practice and young guns will get (test match) experience. Would definitely like to see labushange bowling (and exploiting conditions ) on day 4- day 5 pitches, before ashes.

Australia's tour of South Africa called off

I reckon we wouldn’t want a Shashtri-esque yesman either. I think JL needs to loosen up a tad. Hopefully he would.

Two coaches a no-brainer going forward for Australia

Can we have one coach for home games and another for away (or some similar permutation) ?

Wonder why they don’t pick Kuldeep Yadav. Left-arm unorthodox spin- that’s rarer (almost extinct 😛 ) .

The death of the leg spinner

That was so village! 😂

Mitch Marsh goes troppo after BBL's latest controversial umpiring decision

Not just for Australia but they are vanishing from test cricket in general. Reckon only Yasir Shah features regularly (for Pakistan). Other nations prefer offies over leggies for some *odd* reason.

Pitches are getting flatter (world over) and wrist spinners get more purchase on flatter wickets (no secret). Labushange should definitely take his bowling seriously.

Couldn’t agree more! Australia vs australia a sounds perfect. Some *additional* practice before ashes wouldn’t hurt. (They need to try out new strategies to wrap the tail up, swiftly)

Ps- I hope they pick a venue where the ball nips around a tad. (Hobart, maybe?)

Australia badly needs an A tour this year

Langer the Sanger banger 😛

We need to get used to India dominating cricket

Guffaw!

What do you think of Keshav Maharaj? Better/ on a par with Jadeja?

Is Mitchell Swepson about to turn up the heat on Nathan Lyon?

I feel leggies are at their *lethal* best when they bowl in bursts. Not everyone is a Warne.

If Starc is leaking runs at one end, you can’t expect Swepson to hold the other. Offies, I reckon have “more miles” in them. Maybe that’s the reason they picked Sundar over Kuldeep Yadav.

Can Swepson tie one end down like Garry does (sometimes)?

He (Garry) has shouldered a huge workload in some games, specially in UAE and SA.

Wade should open, IMO

What Australia’s T20 side should look like against New Zealand next month

Reckon they missed a trick here by not picking McDermott.

Did I read that right? Drop Smith? 😛

Wade as an opener then?

He needs to develop a wrong’un and learn to pitch the ball up. Sometimes he’s a tad too short I reckon.

Nice article 👍

I believe Labushange should (be allowed to) shoulder more bowling responsibilities. He has the potential to become a handy batting all-rounder.

He’s a great team player as well. Bowls his heart out everytime. Old school workhorse 👍

Why Nathan Lyon is Test cricket personified

Reckon that’s temporary. Carey is a fine white ball (all round) cricketer.
