he used his ear to block a short ball from tremain ...went off on the cart

didnt look great on the video ..TF for helmets

Good to see Tremain getting some FC opportunities. Always thought he had some potential - bowls a very heavy ball, Midge like.

fortunate win for the Vix - helps us in our quest to not win the spoon...all the home teams won

by the way for Big Dog's benefit
D'oh took 0 wickets
Ahmed took 6 wickets

We'll see how many he takes at the Waca when he plays there.

we're on top of the table, so the only place to go is down

You could secede and push for Test status.

Although the Wozzies might beat you to it.

So that's 3 really good home wins, no draws, very enterprising batting by the Vix chasing on day 4 (though Stoinis is of course an expatriate Wozzie).

A word of congratulations to Botha for his captaincy; there's nothing wrong with that.

Ferguson might get a look-in at the Gabba?

Carters joins Sixers.

Haha, another potential Aus test batsman set to be ruined by T20.

Has he ever worn the gloves for NSW? Peter Nevill has been the first choice keeper for about five years now. Brad Haddin will struggle to get a game in the current NSW team. Could be awkward.

by horace Thu 06 Nov 2014, 00:04

agree...yes Carters has donned the gloves a few times...haddit should retire

by JGK Thu 06 Nov 2014, 00:49

I met Carters yesterday at a small lunch where he discussed his Batting for Change initiative for this year.

Super impressive guy.

The best thing was, the first thing he said was "From as early as I can remember, my dream was to play Test cricket for Australia.".

a good man....the stoopid wobblie shipperd would not give him a decent go in Vic

by horace Thu 06 Nov 2014, 01:05

heard "a little brazen" this morning on the radio...clocks up his 100th shield game this weekend v toxic central..

he's a very humble and humorous bloke who will make a great coach in due course...capt coaches the vix 2nd xi at the mo

by horace Thu 06 Nov 2014, 01:53

so Big Dog, will Doh maintain his spot in the shield match this weekend?

by Henry Thu 06 Nov 2014, 02:25

Clive Rose has far more potential than Doherty.

aye...clive takes wickets, makes runs and is a good fieldsman...that said the toxics will select D'oh

to be fair, he didn't give us much performance

by Bradman Thu 06 Nov 2014, 05:35

Are any test players going to be available for any shield games? They could all do with some real practice.

by horace Thu 06 Nov 2014, 05:48

good idea qmy and therefore unlikely to happen...Clarke may need to be given several lives in each innings

by Bradman Thu 06 Nov 2014, 05:55

I count three sheffield shield rounds before the first test. Put up a mickey mouse team for the jamodis and let them know most positions are up for grabs.

rider: I got the schedule from the CA website.

by Nath Thu 06 Nov 2014, 06:12

Rogers can't get a hit this round, since it's pink ball day/night matches

He has'nt performed as well as Doherty. He's a good second stringer but thats all.
