CRICKET Australia v India Summer

In a sick way playing for SA has probably helped Sweeney "Open"

14 innings he's played three for SA, eight times in before 10 runs- 600 runs at 45.
 
Really don't see how the selectors cannot pick him as opener now, he performed head and shoulders above the other three. Konstas will get his shot if he improves soon anyway as Usman won't have long left.
 
Im OK if they go with McSweeney as the opener for the summer but I'm not going to be angry if they take a punt on Konstas.

Konstas v Bumrah? The kid isn't ready, rushing him could completely shoot his confidence.

Mc Sweeny you mean ??

How the fck do you ask a kid to open when he doesn`t know which ball is safe to leave ? As evidenced by his off stump cart wheeling the other day on a leave that was aimed straight at off stump .
 
It has but they are in a similar bit to Australia. They have a couple of legends who are really looking past it but they just can’t say goodbye to yet in Sharma, Kohli and Ashwin. It’s causing their batting to look really brittle.

That said, they have Jaiswal, Jadeja and Pant, Australia has nothing to match those three.

Top order runs are what you bank on to win games .
You would hope the middle order aren`t left to make up for top order failures . This is where Australia might get an advantage with bounce .
Though Jaiswal looks a generational player and could go big from what I have seen .
 
Watching India get rolled for 121 to lose genuinely arouses me.

It’s their lowest point in Tests for mine.

Losing at home on pitches they very obviously wanted to play a particular way, completely whitewashed at home, you just don’t see that.
 
They are going to want to hit back hard in Aus. I wonder how many test Kohli gets. He has been awful for ages now but will no doubt come alive in a big series.
 
Thanks bro !
let me try again - MacSweenie . How did I do ?

Now go ---- yourself troll .

Long walk on a short pier .

That was a nice come back .

Come at me bro !!!!
 
At the risk of absolutely jinxing him tonight, Smith looks fantastic in this ODI knock ..

When he goes back to the lab and gets himself nice and still (relative to what he can look like) and stops that left shoulder from opening out, geez he makes it look like he’s batting against a beach ball

A couple of weeks ago I said something about his eyes perhaps being painted on - MAKE ME LOOK STUPID ALL SUMMER SMUDGE ! ⭐
 
Shame from Inglis, he was motoring. Australia just keeping the door ajar for Pakistan.
 
That is a woeful shot from Hardie.

He's the last recognised batter with a manageable chase in front of him.... if you want to show yourself as a legit batter in the Aus setup then he had to show that he could finish the job.
