literally free money
>>67830386
he was such a disappointment. Probably his five against South Africa. But Australia literally gollapsed to 10/48 that same day and lost the game
sums up his career really
>>67830396
England 3-0 is on 1.5 atm. Better use of money.
>>67830807
I always had mixed feeling for him. He could only bowl for a few overs before giving up, but he was a genuinely good opening batsman.
>>67831012
It was 1.27 or something when I last looked. Did they UNIRONICALLY increase the odds after Sri Lanka lost by an innings?
>>67831043
He was, and Kikeal Cuck screwed him over. Opener was the only position he ever succeeded in and Kikeal Cuck never let him open again after he became captain and Fatshit got injured in South Africa 2011, except for a couple of games in the 2013 Ashes.
>>67830386
>>67831142
Tbf I don't think he was as good as Warner or Rogers towards the end of his career.
He should have just been dropped into the middle order and have Clarke come in at 3. It's not like his spot at 4 made any difference when Watson would only ever eat up a few overs before getting out LBW.
Forcing an allrounder to be a top order batsman is ridiculous.
>>67831340
Rogers didn't come onto the scene until the 2013 Ashes. Before that they unironically fucked around with Ed "Please rape me" Cowman for 2 years.
Warner/Watson would have been a great combo
Why was Fatson such a cunt?

>>67831498
M8 Rogers played for Australia in 2008.
>>67831107
Could be that the next match is in Durham which means rain. We're literally betting on the weather at this point.
>>67831616
Outside of that incident he seemed like a genuinely nice guy. I know a lot of the shitters that came in under Ponting and Clarke's captaincy said he was the most welcoming of the team veterans.
>>67831653
That's true, but then Hilbitch became selector so no oldies allowed.
Rest in pieces Worst Hussey, Hodge, Oldgers etc
>>67831679
Beyond SCG tier rain, I don't think SL have any chance at all. They've lost two of their best bowlers, which is the only ""strength"" of their current team. Root, Bairstow and Cook are going to walk all over them, before their homebabby bowlers get their batsmen out in the double digits. Cook and Compton will literally have a run rate above 0.4.
>>67831616
t. Michael Clarke
>>67831787
SCG got 1.5 days play
That's probably enough to beat Sri Lanka as long as Cook and Compton dont bat
>>67831755
Hodge was overrated. He was found out by South Africa and rightly dropped for good.
Hussey really should have been capped though. It baffles me that guys like Beer were unironically selected, while guys that were scoring runs for fun in Shield were too old.
>>67831888
Reminder that the following players played for Australia and did so completely unironically
Xavier Doherty
Michael Beer
Andrew McDonald
Bryce McGain
Trent Copeland
Cameron White
Bob "the greatest 9 of all time" Quiney
Steve Smith 1.0
Ed Cowan
Ashton Agar
Alex Doolan
There's probably more of those-tier guys I can't think of right now. The Hilbitch and Memeverarity years truly were a nightmare. Rod Marsh is 100x better than those clowns.
>>67831789
t. Simon Katich
>>67832053
There was literally nothing wrong with pre-debut Agar. Selecting him has ruined his career though.
>>67832053
I actually liked McDonald. He was a good test match allrounder
>>67832115
he was a fucking net bowler who got Kikeal Cuck out a couple of times and was unironically picked to play test cricket because of it
he is the definition of a meme player. I'd be surprised if there was a greater meme in the history of this sport than Agar. His selection didnt ruin him. He is just shit. He always was a shit bowler and still is and will ever cut it as a batsman Smith style despite his meme 98.

Doubt it desu. The conventional wisdom on lebbit is to look at the stats from the previous shield season and pick a national squad based on that.
That's the main arguement against Shitriques. He played three games, top scored with 25 and his best haul was a onefer. it's a valid arguement but there just isn't anyone better than him. All of >our allrounders outside of Best Marsh are dogshit. Rest in pieces Cancer.
Personally I wouldn't take Henriques, he just doesn't add anything of value. if Marsh gets injured I'd either play 4 bowlers or bat SOK 7, Starc 8 like NSW often does.

Kek. Literally one of NZ's five greatest batsmen ended his career in the space of an over for good.
>>67833491
his ""career"" was dead long before the meme cup
I still think Smith was fucking retarded for not bowling him again after that over. Fatshit went for the same amount of runs in an over during the same game.
>>67833422
thats not me m8 and i cant post on lebbit from where i am atm
>>67833557
>I still think Smith was fucking retarded for not bowling him again after that over
>you now remember Stove not bowling out Zampa against PP or India
I try to defend GOATven GODth wherever I can, but that was fairly indefensible.
>>67833557
Not bowling Zampa properly was dumb as fuck, especially given how well he did in the IPL
Can't remember which game it was in, but he only bowled one over on what was a pretty slow pitch. Smith was lucky to even be in the T20 team 2bh
>>67833744
No he wasn't. If you watched the games and not the scorecards you'd see that he was hitting the balls cleanly and looking in control the entire time he was at the crease.
T20 is literally luckswing, and luck went against Smith

No that was based elite and muscular cricket max
Though T20 can definitely be traced back to it, he started the meme of needing a new format.
I still retain the belief that 4 stumps is a brilliant idea and would make all three formats of the game better. There is no way a batsman can fully cover four stumps with total confidence, the corridor of uncertainty would be greater and it would swing the "balance of bat and ball" back to being more equal.
