You’re a bit challenged going back to 2013 and Mitch Johnson. More recent was Archer terrorising the Oz team in particular targeting Smith. There is no comparison to IPL. Check out the TV rights for the Ashes. How many billions? None. Quite obviously to most, IPL targets a different market.
You must be watching a different IPL because the 6s are great and hugely applauded.
But it must be getting dangerous being in the crowd above the fence height.
Cricket's long-standing battle between bat and ball: Is the IPL money-driven 'show' ruining the contest of the game?
To date Starc is the most expensive flop in IPL history. He can turn it all around quickly and his team are going fine. He isn’t getting the wickets like he normally does.
I’m picking him to come good.
Australia's brightest rising T20 star JMK may have to wait his turn for World Cup selection, despite already setting IPL alight
That was a great Sprint race in China. The first great one I’ve seen. It had one of the all time best passing manoevres where Perez somehow won out over the other three who forgot about him. Hamilton showed he still has it and Verstappen took 5 laps to get going then suddenly started pulling out times up to 2 secs a lap quicker. From radio talk he was busy changing all the steering wheel powered settings on his car as read out by his engineer. And Zhou got 9th and a huge roar from the crowd which you don’t often hear in F1. The weekend format worked well. Stroll was bad.
Chinese Grand Prix talking points: Stroll has become the most hated F1 driver in a long time - but that's simply an unfair call!
An ok team. Certainly Wade must have been told he is a certainty because last interview I read he said he wasn’t sure that he would be keeping wickets at the WC. He seemed to think he would be captain. He is in Tasmania with the Chair of Selectors, Bailey.
I’de take Johnson over Bartlett and Ellis. These guys are cannon fodder and the left armer is more likely to snag wickets at the top level in T20.
And Stoinus over Cam Green though I’de have both in the 15.
Best XI currently: Warner, Head, Stoinis, Marsh, Maxwell, David, Green, Inglis, Cummins, Zampa, Hazelwood. But David needs to score more runs. But coming in, in the 18-20th over doesn’t help .

After enough reading we see Russ has nothing to offer. Just another big ego who knows whats required and is the frontline for change providing they aren’t female.
He provides absolutely nothing worthwhile to look forward to but more of the same from fellow past flops. This has been brought on by the hopelessly performed Mclennan who Russ Tulloch supports. Russ Tulloch and his crew are a miserable bunch of brown noses with nothing to offer.
'Definition of madness': Rugby reform must start with total cleanout of RA board - and this should happen next
Well you can only beat whats in front of you. I have only watched quarters of games they have played and they look as good as ever. When Cook came on and then Scott they set themselves up and are still delivering. The Hawthorn of the 21st century when the Hawks are long gone.. They’re always giving themselves a chance to be in the main game come finals time. First you have to be in the finals.
With their defence and a trade steal firing, the Cats lead the ladder. The next three weeks will tell us if they really deserve to
And good luck graduating from primary school Dan. Your brainis where you’re at.
NRL News: Top ref 'rested', Mam has 'no regrets' over Leniu saga, Wally reveals concussion battle
I think Lance read your article Bayden and blamed Australia. He took out Dan Ricciardo while fast asleep behind the safety car and the impact launched Dans car into the back of Piastris Mclaren damaging that as well.

Pretty hopeless Les. I suggest you switch to NRL and then you’ll be able to write an identical article. And then try rugby union but you’ll have plenty of competition there.

Klein is the best in the business. He also brings out all the low life weeds as we see in this thread. The losers gather. Criticising refs is all they know because nothing much is happenning up top.

Agree on those points. It would be spectacular to have a race at the Highlands track. A definite whowl factor there.

A bit rough on the fizzer. Stoinus was gonna hit whoever was bowling the last over, and silence that CSK crowd. A rare event that. Lets see if he can do another innings this IPL. T20 has changed in this IPL and I’m guessing it will flow onto International level. You need around 60 in the power play at the start to set up the innings. In other words go for broke, then keep going. The best at it so far are the Sunrisers under Pat Cummins. I’de prefer Stoinus at 3 for Oz, then Marsh at 4, Maxwell at 5. But he needs a couple more innings in this IPL.

That is most obviously not a Boards job. You need to get on one yourself and see how it operates.

The revolving door. But surely a clean out can happen normally with so many up for re-election.
Replace the incumbents when their time is up. It is not like they tried to sabotage anything. But they gave the mega egos of McLennan and Jones all the money to talk b/s and trash the Wallaby brand. With clowns like that as the public face investors will be reluctant.
It really is dependant on the Wallaby team performing as they were prior to Jones, and carrying on that improvement which will bring wins.
'Easy to throw stones': RA chairman hits back at mudslingers' 'hypocrisy' after calls for AGM board cleanout
I didn’t get why Piastri was so slow. Unlike him to not be nipping at Landos heels.
That was a spectactacular passing, whatever, conondrum that Perez won out on.
Now to the real thing. So sad that Zhou is at the back. The crowd roar for him must have been the loudest in F1 history in Sprint qualifying.
Unfortunately it seems Max can pull 2 secs a lap when its required. Daunting.
'Welcome back': Reliving the last Chinese Grand Prix ahead of its much-anticipated return five years later
Times change and IPL has changed. Rules are: hit the next ball for 6 or 4 and failing that run like your life depends on it.
Pat Cummins SHb team are re-inventing the T20 game and Cummins is still winning as a bowler.
The possibiliy of Jofra Archer's career coming to an early end will rob cricket of a bowler with so much talent
Actually they did. Its on TV if you want to watch 😁 . But I doubt that suits your agenda which is to create your own rights and wrongs.
To bad you’re wrong but I suspect you’re used to that.
Sure hope you’re not married.
The possibiliy of Jofra Archer's career coming to an early end will rob cricket of a bowler with so much talent
Stroll has had a hopeless season. Nonstop complaints from him and also way to far behind Alonso.
There’s no doubt he can drive ok in F1 but really only making up the numbers. He won’t ever win a GP, so at some stage the old man will take some money, which is a substantial profit on his investment, maybe for a minor ownership.
Surely Michael Andretti should be talking to him if he seriously wants to be in F1.
He has been rejected totally by the F1 field, so if he is serious, get in there and do the business.
But as a driver Michael never seriously committed despite his speed. He preferred the high living lifestyle from the USA rather than committing to Europe, which every F1 winner does.
So I’m not sure that Michael Andretti is fully committed to F1. More committed to headlines.

I think you’re right GC. I’ve seen this over and over in WAFL, AFL but not so much in NRL. Old guys (like me) get cranky and lash out. It’s out of character for Tedesco which makes me think you’re right. The teams losing, he’s having a s–t game and then this kick (not a trip).
NRL Round 7 judiciary: Knight gets ban for tunnel brawl, Tigers star facing ban, Roosters duo charged
Seems the writer is all excited over nothing teams. The Dons aren’t playing as well as they did under the previous coach. But they’re playing for the full game instead of doing nothing for a quarter or a half of football.
And Adelaide seem to find a way to lose. These don’t look like potentially flag winning teams.
It looked like a non-attempt to clear the ball at the end but we can be certain any attempt would have missed, because thats what Adelaide do best. Miss their opportunities.
Footy Fix: Ferocious, fast and fantastically coached - stuff the controversy, let's give the Dons the respect they deserve
I blame Joe Root for the long term injuries to Archer and Stokes. He overbowled them ridiculously and his duty of care to the players was never questioned.
Four overs max for Archer and six for Stokes (who doesn’t have a great bowling action) would have been plenty but he was doubling that. Root was comfortably Englands worst captain which is strange. He seems a nice guy and knowledgeable. He also ignored his mate Woakes not so long back when England were bowling poorly. Woakes wasn’t at his best but way better than what was being served up.

The problem was Tedesco kicked out Papys legs on purpose. It wasn’t a reflex action. Certainly a ban deserved and probably given for anyone other than the NSW captain.

We are talking about having a backbone and wimping out when the going got tough. The Eels were pathetic. Like those making excuses for them.

Good to see that history.
The Sprint is back today with practice at 1pm, then sprint qualifying at 5pm.
At least the format for sprint races makes more sense this season. Also they’re allowed to change the car set ups after the Sprint race.
Also Antonelli was extremely quick driving an F1 Mercedes at the Red Bull Ring this week. If he puts in a standout performance in F2 shortly , you’de think the 2025 Merc seat would be his.

With the BBC telling us Adrian Newey is set to leave Red Bull there may be many moves afoot.
Perez has done better than the likes of Gasly and Albon both of who struggled to stay with-in 0.5sec of Max. And he’s driving way better this season than last.
However I would have Liam Lawson in that seat. If Lawson doesn’t score an F1 drive next season his time may be past before it has begun.
