Pressure? Pressure is a Messerschmidt up your arse

Piru the bumbling RA have created an entirely new position for Larkham rather than sacking him. Not advertised. Almost indistinguishable from Kafers? No payout!
All year we have heard from the usual suspects that RA couldn’t afford to sack Cheika (which is ridiculous), but they certainly don’t have a spare $10m to shell out at Hansen

"They've got Mickey Mouse coaching": Hansen shocks with stinging Cheika rebuke

Maybe there were some bugs?

They haven’t got the cash to sack an underperforming employee

And Joe Burns has been dropped nearly every innings he has played 😉

Khawaja ton an Ashes boost for Australia

Come on Jordan, Wade will never again be selected as the wicketkeeper

Patterson ton a welcome addition to Ashes intrigue

I thought Curran played in the last Ashes… Melbourne?

Englishman Sam Curran's 'lucky charm' bubble busted big time in Barbados

I agree with you in general, the point was that he has not learned. Sure, playing and missing, getting edges is part of all cricket. Wildly slashing at very wide balls, deliberately bowled as part of a planned trap, with two wickets just lost on a row and both new batsmen not set on 4, and when the very same thing has happened in every test of the last series, is not.

Australian rookies run Sri Lanka ragged

Only if its annus horribilus, which it may well be….although 2018 currently holds that honour

Is 2019 the Wallabies' year?

We do know what we’ll get on the day, as do the opposition

Heads two swipes at wide full deliveries when he was on 4 (one a snick over 2nd slip) showed poor temperament and composure. He has already been out exactly the same way three times against India, and now SL lured him into the same trap with ease.

Pat Cummins strikes first, again

You are both right

Pat Cummins strikes first, again

Khawaja is on thin ice

Australian rookies run Sri Lanka ragged

Yup, that was a decisive moment showing a lack of technique, temperament and composure. He went on, with a few wobbles, but that moment was telling

Beat me to it DP. The most graceful, beautiful batsman I’ve ever seen, as a kid he made me want to be a batsman just like him (it wasn’t Chappell, Walters, Viv, etc)

Who are the five greatest West Indian cricketers of all time?

Shiv was a very, very good test batsman. Viv was at another level.

No, he doesn’t 😉

Faulkner is ready for an ODI return

That break from CA stupidity ushers in RA stupidity

Kurtis Patterson added to Australian Test squad to play Sri Lanka

Maxwell is not known as the big show, that was a flippant remark on commentary, which he has repudiated many times

Is Glenn Maxwell the Big Show or a no-show?

Finch, Carey, Khawaja and Stoinis had already stymied those two matches, Maxwell left with the task of improving the run rate.

Flawed article

Is Glenn Maxwell the Big Show or a no-show?

Yup, Fawad and Agar. Not Lyon. Not three Quicks, two plus all rounder medium pacer.

Glenn Maxwell dropping a sitter? Not remotely possible

It’s not an outlier coz he also has a 188….plus the 167 average in the U19 tournament

Why not take out the 1?

When he scores, he scores big

Just let Will Pucovski be Will Pucovski

Collective failure of iron ore detectors….Rissole is from WA haha 😉

Three changes confirmed in new-look Australian squad to play Sri Lanka

That side just got pasted Jordan (except Patterson)

VOTE: Pick your Australian XI to play Sri Lanka

Make a selection, don’t have four alternatives for one spot
