Since around 2001, Australian under 19 and A teams have extensively toured the Sub Continent.

I think the problem might be that your two most senior batsmen and their egos decided that charging one of the world's best spinners and trying to smash him out of the ground was a good strategy.

aye. playing "the Australian way" isn't the best strategy on wickets away from home.

Tah. Saved me from mouthing off about arrogance and an inability to read old scorecards. Read at all probably.

Joe Mennie had a good match.

useful...has been a consistent bowler for a while...Meh needs to move to WA or the Dubbers to have a chance of higher honors

by embee Sun 07 Aug 2016, 09:10

He played for the Scorchers for a couple of seasons

If he came West he'd be behind NCN Dorf and Paris with Mackin Moody and Duffield as competition

Fair chance most of them will be injured though

by horace Sun 07 Aug 2016, 11:55

Precisely.

Jake Lehmann wants to know the ethnicity of Dane Piedt so he can be accurate in descriptive back handed compliment ...

Sam Heazlett smashes a century for the National Performance Squad.

Dont know how 'A' the banIndian team is but all out 55 isn't good

I thought only Australia could be that shit

by skully Mon 15 Aug 2016, 04:49

Chris Tremain, ay? Of course he's a dubber. Wink

Chris Tremain

by lardbucket Mon 15 Aug 2016, 05:02

Yes - Mennie gets ignored by the mass media selection pushers, and Worrall at the other end is ignored; but one good performance from Dubber Tremain and he's already pencilled in for future Test honours.

by skully Mon 15 Aug 2016, 05:11

And rightly so. cheers

Kjnr did not rate Ptomaine...so he moved to Vic for opportunity....btw Kjnr has always been a huge fan of Reeks...

Hoss dominates the A team

Saffies A. shyte on Aust A. Horries Favorites for full honours did well naughty

Stoinis a duck
Bancroft 16
Hanscombe 12

Today, Laurie Harper's nephew top-scored with 72 for the National Performance Squad. Then Simon O'Donnell's son made early inroads into the India A batting. He currently has 6/0/11/3 having opened the bowling with Tom Moody's nephew.

India A recovered & are now cruising to victory.

by Big Dog Wed 31 Aug 2016, 08:23

O'Donnell's sprog came a cropper against the Saffies. 47/0 off six.

SA won, largely due to a 124 n.o. by Miller. Nice to see Jewell in the runs at last. Very talented youngster.

feels like this series has been going forever
