I'm hoping he doesn't get a chance. Would love to see these 2 bat the innings out.

Re: The Cricket Thread
This is nice, sensible batting.
Now for the next trick, will I make it to the end of our innings?

Re: The Cricket Thread
I'd rather see him sit there and block for a little bit while he gets settled than to start thrashing straight away and throw away his wicket...

Re: The Cricket Thread
Stoinis fails again.
Re: The Cricket Thread
Stoinis he's a waste of space
Re: The Cricket Thread
Someone has to stay with Smith but I have no confidence in Maxwell
Re: The Cricket Thread
Fancy Stoinis failing. Should have medically ruled him out 2 weeks ago.
well, I guess you could say that I'm buy curious.
Re: The Cricket Thread
Agreed. Would have swapped him for Wade

Re: The Cricket Thread
neither do I but he's gotta do it because otherwise one of the bowlers has to and I have even less faith in them...

**** Stoinis... I am not a fan of his at all. Whenever I watch him for Australia he contributes nothing (though admittedly I watch a lot less cricket these days). Plus he seems like a d-bag... has this annoying smug look

Re: The Cricket Thread
We should have put Wade in the team ahead of one of these two. Surely someone here agrees with me
Re: The Cricket Thread
Wade should have been in the side but for Handscombe. He's technique has never been good enough and it hasn't improved at all and it's not working for him. You could argue that Smith's technique is flawed but he makes an unorthodox technique work.

Stoinis and Maxwell are a waste, Wade could have replaced one of them.
I'm giving up I don't think we can win the match from here :-(

We need to fluke out another 50 or 60 and Starc to rip through the top order.... or rain

Re: The Cricket Thread
Handscomb was pretty good in India. He's up and down though.
We have really missed Cummins lower order batting given that our middle order hasn't been strong in this world cup. Feel sorry for smith batted well but no support
