Don’t know what you guys, Baggers and Grazorblade think, but I reckon Starc’s a bit erratic.
Siddle has better line and length. Two close LBW shouts as well as nearly bowling him out last ball.

+x+xI’m annoyed Renshaw hasn’t been selected. Keeping him out of the team makes no sense. SO am I. This is what I have written on that subject. If they considered he was underdone why the hell did they pick him? They could have given the nod to a rookie like Jake Weatherald or an elder stateman like Callum Ferguson.. both of whom have been in prime form.
Starc wasting the new ball. What an incredible catch by Labu.. told you this bloke was a specialist short leg. Have you seen the footage of him practising his catching in his kitchen?

+xWaugh and Lee disagree over Starc’s current form. Waugh thought he bowled well without luck. Lee thought he was way below his best. I'm with Lee.

Starc has a strike rate of 50 per wicket!

I’m having a few before going out on the turps.
Mark Waugh reckons Lyon needs more help after a big bowling load in the First Test.

+x+xCould the unthinkable happen and we get a pitch with actual grass on it for the Second Test? Having toiled on a Dubai pitch almost entirely bereft of greenery, the Australians were surprised to find a well-grassed wicket at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium on Sunday (pictured). Recent history would suggest the track will be far from the green seamer Australian Test sides have struggled on in recent Ashes series abroad and it's expected that curators will give the Abu Dhabi track a significant haircut ahead of the first ball on Tuesday. Not sure that will make much difference as that is some "green top".  Australia has lost toss again!!

+x+xI'll set this up, but I will be out tomorrow evening.
I think I'm out on the turps tomorrow night, but might catch a bit of cricket early on. So while you blokes go out and enjoy yourselves I will be here holding the fort once again. :P

+x+x+x+x+x+xI'll set this up, but I will be out tomorrow evening. I've seen talk in the paper that Renshaw won't play. I'd drop Geoff Marsh to fit him in. I've seen Renshaw bat a lot of time in Asia. I've seen talk in the paper that Renshaw won't play. I'd drop Geoff Marsh to fit him in. I've seen Renshaw bat a lot of time in Asia. Yes looks like Renshaw is to be returned to Shield cricket in prep for India series. So folks we are stuck with Shaun Marsh whether we like it or not. If I was the coach I would have axed him for not only the deplorable shot he played to start the rot but his lack of leadership befitting a senior member of our team. I must say I'm surprised at Renshaw's omission. I am no longer surprised by some things CA comes up with. If they considered he was underdone why the hell did they pick him? They could have given the nod to a rookie like Jake Weatherald or an elder stateman like Callum Ferguson.. both of whom have been in prime form. Callum Ferguson has disappointed. He had a lot of promise. He often looked good, then got out unexpectedly. I suppose a bloke as talented as he should be averaging more than @38 at FC level. His last few Shield seasons tho have been solid. Reason he was chosen to make his Test debut. Then what does CA do.. they drop him after a solitary Test match. What a massive kick in the guts that must have been.

I seem to remember Renshaw wasn't a bad first slip fielder too.
