Couldnt help but think while watching that run out that a good roar article would be: “11 players you would invite to your barbecue”. Ie the best barbecuers in world cricket. Inzamam for captain?

Tons of fun for Sharma and Jadeja as India bludgeon England on dramatic day after top-order collapse

Fair call, wrong analogy.

Test Mortem: Smith to opener an act of convenience, team shows signs of fatigue, Pakistan selectors' costly blunder

Cummins is a Bit Ross lyonish. How he used Green indicated to me he isn’t as good a captain as he is made out to be. Kids bring energy to the team but they don’t perform as well if you hold them back. Felt like he was holding him back in my opinion.

Smith will get more lbw’s if he opens though. Looks mortal now.

Watson was a good player but I do miss his referalls, they were gold, might watch some now 😂

Giving Green light to opener experiment could work - but that doesn’t mean it’s the right option

Enough to destroy his confidence.

Harris and Bancrofts test averages very similar. Bancroft averaged almost double in the 2023 shield season.
Taking away their highest scores from the 23 shield season (bancrofts 122 and Harris’s 164) you end up with averages of 14.75 for Harris and 48.74 for Bancroft. Lets say for arguments sake we add the 126 Harris scored against pakistan its still only an average of 30.
Bancroft faces more balls and is more consistent. Everyone down the order will perform better batting against an older ball, especially head.

Yep, free hit missed

Umpire missed his chance for a free hit, should have taught him a lesson

COMMENT: BBL Pom's disgraceful ump incident deserves bigger ban - and shame on Aussie icon for 'both-sidesing' it

Great article but I never hit Terry Jenner!

Thanks Stuart Broad: you've helped us realise that England have NEVER won the Ashes

With the amount of ads the roar shows they might turn you down because they make more from ad revenue.

Playing through injuries is fine RS, broken rib, non – bowling hand sure but he couldnt load through the knee which meant he was basically useless.

Busted knee or not, Pakistan needed Shaheen Afridi to play through the pain in the World Cup final

Shaheen played through the pain and bowled a trash ball which should have been dispatched. No point sending down another 5 balls of trash. He knew he was done so he did what was best for the team IMO. Another 5 balls to finish his over would have went for more than 13.

Pakistan showed character all night but England were the better team.

Would a percentage of gross earnings of the team allocated as the salary cap plus development allowance for women be better? Sounds equitable to me.

Anti-inflammatories can make you pretty angry! Maybe he has had a sore neck for quite a while.

Yep. Wonder how much KFC would pay Ginnivan to do a chicken wing ad… Not condoning it but it would be a laugh.

AFL News: 'Mob of perennial sooks' - Danger blasted for Ginnivan 'chicken wing' accusation, Giant requests trade

I bet Jake Kelly woke up from his danger KO like at least it wasn’t a chicken wing… AFL is intense. Ginnivan tackle didn’t look to me like there was malice in it just a bit careless same as Dangerfield on Kelly. Didn’t see the De Goey tackle. If Dangerfield is going to use his platform as AFLPA president to call out individual incidents then he probably shouldn’t be in that role. Players have pretty much had a free license to try break Ginnivan’s neck, of his own making mostly but not mentioned as far as i’m aware of by the AFLPA president. Ginninvan’s going to get a holiday after this weekend anyway so that will keep Danger and Chokewood happy.
