Burn Down Canberra posted:I feel the biggest issue with Australian cricket is the selectors. I've heard talk of Maxwell replacing hussey instead of khawaja. The problem is Maxwell doesn't have the greatest temperament and that would be a collapse prone top order. Even more so than now. I don't mind guys like Maxwell being given a go then being sent away to deal with their deficiencies. When better than a meaningless dead rubber where the opposition is probably still trying hard for the sake of dignity? The rotations should cease once the bowling attack gets a bit older and can handle the workload. There must be something up with the fitness program or something with all these guys getting soft tissue injuries. Burn Down Canberra posted:Watson is simply terrible with the bat right now.

RideTheSpiral posted:Dhoni is literally the most annoying batsman. He operates at a 60 s/r causing every other batsman to throw their wicket away, then hits a few vanity 6s at the end before getting out leaving the team needing 10 an over. No that's actually him being calm and collected in a high pressure situation. He'd make more runs if he wasn't always being batted out of form by cheating white guys who make him bat on unfairly bouncy pitches. Maderchod. Also something about SRT.

It'd be nice if when they get into a semi strong position the kiwi batsmen could stay focused on the task at hand instead of mentally undressing the victory sheep back in the shed.

It's only countries like SL and Bangladesh that need India because those tours generate so much money for the cricketing minnows. When Russel Arnold was commentating this summer he was saying that Sri Lankan stars are basically obliged to play in the IPL or India will schedule fewer matches in Sri Lanka, with dire financial consequences for the home side.

Scylo posted:My favourite thing about this years IPL is the fact that there are only a few English Test players involved with it, but a whole bunch of Australian players will be there. The lkes of Clarke, Hughes, Warner and Wade should be looking to have a break before a potentially tough Ashes series, or maybe spend some time over there preparing. But nope, gotta get that money while sitting on the bench for a month. This pisses me off no end. They could be doing a training camp with 20 or so test hopefuls, really getting the team bonding happening, working on their fitness and skills and doing whatever they can to prepare for back to back Ashes. But no, apparently a bit of hit and giggle for the amusement of a bunch of corrupt billionaires is more important.
