Australian Domestic Season 2021-22

Started today

Wozzies smashed the Sozzies in an ODD

Tons for Phillipe Mitch Marsh (sorry horrie) and Carey

Shield game starts on Friday


Going to be a long rebuild for the Sozzies if that's their best side

Why isn't everyone talking about Mitchell Marsh, Josh Philippe & Alex Carey?

Mitch Marsh not playing the Shield to keep his white ball form ahead of the T20 gilly

No one expects their form to last.

He is clearly content with his truly remarkable Test record.

how is this 50 over form going to convert to T20 cricket and help us win the WC? It won't.

Shaun Marsh and Cam Green the first centurions of 21-22 Shield season

SA still crap

Doggett should improve them

maybe but if Pope is not improving and they're forced to use Head as their main spinner, then yuck!

Don't care about Bog's form (old pretender) but Cam Green's is encouraging.

Hopefully he makes the Aus no. 6 Test spot his own this summer.

The selectors are looking for him to fill the all rounder role. If so he's going to need to improve his bowling quite a bit.

and WA is little better

Jellies 2/280

Rolton Reseerve is a beautiful ground but has a classic autobahn pitch

Cam Green's bowling lacks any sort of fizz

Nathan McAndrew has done well for the Sozzies.  

Who? you ask.   Well CA don't seem to know much about him either.

The Tigers have named 13-man squad to take on the Bulls:

Gabe Bell
Jarrod Freeman

Lawrence Neil-Smith
Sam Rainbird
Peter Siddle
Jordan Silk
Matthew Wade
Charlie Wakim

Going to be a tough game with Meredith & Bird out injured & Ellis on IPL duties.

Must be nearly time for the Cheese to elevate this one to Rikki status.

Has the English season finished?

Cricinfo has Gabe Bell listed as captain and keeper in the Tas v Qld Shield match starting today.

Unlikely.
