CRICKET Australia v Sri Lanka

[1910]

I don't think he's going over to just make up numbers just quietly. I think he will debut but whether that is test 1 or 2 I'm not sure.

He's a chance if they go with just Starc and then use three spinners and he bats at six and bowls.

My definition of part timer is a guy who has another skill more developed and bowls as a secondary skill .
Murphy and Kuhnemann have both played for Australia as specialists previously.
Are you trying to say they are sitting at home on the couch ? LOL .

Is it that pitches in Qld and Victoria don`t suit spinners so the selectors aren`t picking Murphy and Kuhnemanns ? Because we know they both can be very effective in spin friendly conditions .

He couldn't displace Swepson.

He clearly wanted to play Shield because he left and signed with the Tigers, Hobart isn't much better than the Gabba for a spin bowler. If he'd stayed in Queensland, he's playing Club cricket for the Gold Coast and not going to Sri Lanka.

16 wickets last season at 44 in Hobart- Beau knew there was no future in spin in Hobart.

Kuhemann has nine this year at home.

I think my point is valid, if you are hoping to make the Test side then making your State side should be the bare minimum and then taking 30 plus wickets and playing 10 games would be nice.

We are getting down to the pointy end of replacing Lyon and someone needs to step up and you're not going to do that playing for the Heat and OD and club cricket.

Kuhmann and Connolly take it the opposite way to Murphy and Lyon so they have that big ticket in his box.

Ummm ,,, how many shield games did Lyon play before playing tests ?

You seem to have missed the point again- he's not a rookie that's only played 4 games like Connolly- he couldn't make his state side. He's had to move to play State Cricket.

Last year he was a part time cricketer.
