CRICKET Australia v Sri Lanka

[BroncsFan]

The problem will always be they're rare in Australia and they don't get a game at home.

Our most decorated left arm orthodox bowler- Jack Saunders 79 Test wickets from 14 Tests- played his last Test in 1908.

I just always think of how much Jadeja destroyed us for the last decade plus.

Pup's left armers came in handy as well... I just want one somewhere in the team for a change up to the normal off spin.

Connelly could become a permanent place in the team, which would give us a left arm offie.

Except Connolly doesn’t bowl off-spin…

So close to understanding but no not yet.

He played two Shield games that year, he was closer to full time than 0 games.

Well your guy is at home on the couch .
My guy just got 9 wickets . Now run along .

That`s why they had Kuhnemanns on an Oz A tour to India and then stayed on as a nets bowler . To mimic Jadeja part time style . LOL .

What does he bowl then?

What does he bowl then?

Orthodox. Trajectory wise it’s the same as leg spin around the wicket.

Finger spin like an off spinner but goes the other way.

So close, it's not the style that's part time although it is rare it's the playing workload.

0 games bad.
11 games good.

Orthodox then... fmd

Another part timer .

Tanveer Sangha has been flown to Sri Lanka ahead of the second Test for development purposes but McDonald confirmed he could play a part in the two ODIs in Colombo before the team flies to the Champions Trophy

Cummins 'heavily unlikely' for Champions Trophy, Smith or Head to lead Australia

Coach Andrew McDonald says Josh Hazlewood is also struggling to be fit for the tournament

Sounds like Connolly might be debuting, for either Webster or Murphy

Yeah I heard this yesterday, good move in my opinion. The kid is the goods, you can see that, let him get a test when the stakes aren't really that high. I'd play him over Marnus though and move Inglis to 3.

 

[Big Del]

Is he a slips fielder ?

 

[Sproj]

Is he a slips fielder ?

He tends to be more in the outfield, I don't think I've seen him in the slips.

 

[1910]

Connolly fielded for Australia in 2022 against the WI- made that great save on the fence.

Same as Marnus sub fielding in 2018.

 

[Sproj]

Connolly to debut officially - he is replacing Murphy.

 

[1910]

Is Connolly the first bowler picked for Australia without a wicket in FC cricket?

Would have to be surely
This game will be alot tougher seeing how we are batting first.

RIP McSweeney... have fun running the drinks for the next few years and playing zero cricket
