CRICKET NEWS Third Test- Australia v South Africa

[Spoon]

Agar showing what a terrible decision it was to pick him cause he can bat a little. FFS he's a bowler who isn't threatening in the slightest, sure pick him for the test team.... Genius!

 

[Browny]

Are these umpires taking the piss

 

[BroncsFan]

Warner player of the series... what a joke... he made 213 runs across 4 innings and 200 of them came in one innings.

Should've been Smudge (231 runs 1x 100 & 1x 50), Head (211 runs 3x 50) or Cummins (12 wickets at 16).

If they gave Uzzie a couple more overs he would've outscored Warner as well and also got a double ton

 

[The True King]

Nothing against Agar as a person and certainly don't hold this test result against him given the circumstances...but the guy shouldn't be anywhere near the test side and never should have been.

If he goes on to deserve another shot through shield cricket then fair enough but until then, I don't want to see him in any test squad or XI.

He's not good enough.

 

[BooKhaki]

Was Agar the 5th best spinner in the Australian XI?

 

[Sproj]

Was Agar the 5th best spinner in the Australian XI?

Legit question sadly.

 

[Big Del]

Was Agar the 5th best spinner in the Australian XI?

yes .

Lyon , Head , Smiffy and Marnus were all better than Agar .

 

[BooKhaki]

I think we are forgetting Warner was an accomplished spinner when younger, and Renshaw has bowled some good offies.

Is he actually the worst bowling option in the side outside of the keeper and Usman?

 

[Fernando]

The only upside to the Agar call is that hopefully it really was an India tour trial and he has failed.
