Steve Waugh's view on too much cricket not being a good thing:


People's budgets and time only stretch so far (when it comes to watching on Pay TV and attending in person. I know i'm only good for maybe 2 days of attending cricket matches a summer.

BBL, was a great product, until they tried to exploit the market, flooded it with extra games and made it unattractive for international players to come to and viewers to enjoy . . . Gotta fund the wbbl somehow I guess

No, it wouldn't have sold out at the WACA either, although this is where games against nations other than the big 3 should be held.

There are plenty of reasons why - Wednesday daytime stat, cricket public who have just been saturated by a t20 world cup, tier 2 opposition...
The Wednesday start is a brain fart...

Mayers has bowled well, need to entice the drive on this pitch.
I like their attack, Joseph is a serious talent, 5 test centuries and has plenty of bowling ability. Will prove to be a better allrounder than Cam Green

They need Joseph bowling or they're gonna be fielding till we're finished batting

Why would they start the game on Wednesday when most are at work? The game will be finished before the weekend starts.

Also why are we playing tests against the WI 2 years in a row?

Just put the cricket on for like the first time in 2 years or so. Does Michael Slater not do commentary anymore??
He got sacked Marley, he has some serious mental health issues and has been in trouble with the law too for stalking his ex etc etc.
So yeh not well mentally i hope he gets better i always liked the fella, not condoning the threatening behaviour btw he needs to buck up get treatment etc..
