It’s not hard at all.

The two factors that’ll decide whether Smith’s opening gambit is a surprising success or ill-conceived failure

Joel Paris is better than those two.

Cummins cleans up again but Pakistan recover from collapse with wagging tail frustrating Aussies

I agree. Given way too many chances at a young age

COMMENT: Can we please stop rewriting history about Mitch Marsh just because everyone loves him now?

Well if that’s the case other Aussie batsmen would’ve had centuries then right? But they didn’t

All 3 have been found wanting at the top level Don

Poor Donny. His boy Mitch took 40 matches to pull his finger out

That’s the thinking of old. Keepers need to be good batsman in 2023.

Worth keeping around: No way Carey’s spot should be in jeopardy despite recent lack of runs

Pierson gets runs when they’re needed. He’d be my choice for the test team. Carey is far too inconsistent. Inglis should be the limited overs keeper full time

She’s a former Sixers player and employee obviously letting her sympathies for them cloud her opinion

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

That kind of disrespect for an official is unheard of in the top level of cricket. He’s lucky he didn’t get kicked to the curb and sent home.

'Hang their heads in shame': Sixers' ump intimidation appeal sets a bad example for sport at all levels

Exactly. Once you go down that road it can be a problem. The team has been quite accommodating to his beliefs in the past

'Makes no sense': Khawaja slams ICC charge over first Test armband protest as Albanese goes into bat for opener

Ah no. He supports Palestine quite obviously with his shoe protest. He had no words for peace after October 7. It’s only now he wants it

'Makes no sense': Khawaja slams ICC charge over first Test armband protest as Albanese goes into bat for opener

Usman had no words for the Jews killed on October 7. His all lives are equal mantra rings hollow considering his shoe protest was in Palestinian colors only. As I’ve always said, you bring social or political causes into sports and you invite criticism whether it’s true or false

'Makes no sense': Khawaja slams ICC charge over first Test armband protest as Albanese goes into bat for opener

Australian cricket is a boys club. We’ve all known this for years. Johnson stated the obvious about Warner and has been ostracized. Henriques never was good enough at national level. Overrated due to his state. Not surprised by his ridiculous statement at all

'Didn't expect the stand-off': BBL Pom apologises to ump, 'deeply regrets' controversial incident as ban upheld

The colors are those of Palestine.

'You'd be shocked': Khawaja vows to 'fight' CA ban on anti-war statement as he's told he has 'zero right' to protest

As I said on the other post today on this issue, I have no problem with him doing this. He should be allowed to do it for his cause for which he seems to be quite genuine about. A player shouldn’t be made to have a stance on an issue that they don’t agree with if the team management decides it for them. Teammates or opposition should be allowed to support Israel if they choose. The public and commentators should be able to comment on this and criticize if they choose.
His “all lives are equal” stance which was recently controversial should be a normal thing. He’s allowed to be pro Palestinian in his way.

Mitch Marsh can only bat well against the Poms

First Test team announced: Australia spring a surprise with leadership change - 'trying to give opportunities to others'

Why is this controversial? Ed is right

‘A walking wicket for two years’: Another old Warner teammate questions whether opener should get Test farewell

In the last few years saying that expression was a bad thing

'You'd be shocked': Khawaja vows to 'fight' CA ban on anti-war statement as he's told he has 'zero right' to protest

On his own time, sure. But it’s their sport

'You'd be shocked': Khawaja vows to 'fight' CA ban on anti-war statement as he's told he has 'zero right' to protest

I’ve zero problems with him doing that as long as he’d be okay with a teammate or opposition player supporting Israel. Once you bring in political and social statements into sport like this there he might end up being something you don’t like happen

'You'd be shocked': Khawaja vows to 'fight' CA ban on anti-war statement as he's told he has 'zero right' to protest

He has been great only in home matches and not for years

'I don't understand': England great stumped by Warner 'friction', Lyon's huge 'top two all-time openers' call

Dumb idea

Four-day Tests? Traditionalists say no but red-ball format needs to move with the times to stay relevant

The facts are a hit piece?

‘Quite disgusting, childish, condescending’: Johnson blasts Bailey over mental health comment as Warner feud gets nastier

He can’t bat and can’t field. His first class bowling record is average.
