Cricket 2022/23 thread

Just had a look at the International Cricket schedule in Australia for the 23/24 season.. Australia are playing Pakistan in a 3 test series, and then they are playing the Windies also, in a 3 Test series.

They then will face the Windies again, in 3 One Day Internationals, and a further 3 T20 matches.

How competitive is THIS Australian international cricket season gunna be?

how boring its only exciting when we play India or the poms in the ashes.

well that would be a stupid bet no chance Maxwell would even get near bevans average

No way - Maxi just played the greatest innings of all time - based on the grade 1 carry on - someone must be sure this is only the start.

Shhhsh dude - you ruining my game.

I don’t mind watching the Aussies play the Kiwis..but this lineup.. Gosh you would think twice about buying tickets for day 4 or 5 to any of the Test matches. They’d all most likely be over in 3 and half days at most. As for the One Dayers..you’d hope Australia bat first , especially against the Windies, who didn’t even qualify for the World Cup, because the game will be over a lot quicker.

Commentary of SA vs Afghanistan.. Aaron Finch, “de Kock was straight up..”.. Gee bud we don’t wanna know everything that goes on in the commentary box.. I guess you can’t deny the man loves his cricket!

Pakistan on qualifying for the WC finals..

'We will try to do it' - Babar still believes Pakistan can set up semi-final against India

To qualify for semi-final, they need to beat England by an improbable 287 runs, hence will likely miss out for third World Cup in a row

There is not much hope, Just a fool's hope.. But it’s often the one who always believes, no matter the odds, that gets the job done..

Best scenario for em, bat first and score 400 runs and get Poms out for 112 runs or less.

But agree..very very unlikely..

I hope they bat first. It should be fun watching them try to score 500.

I believe the Pakis enquired whether Travis Head has English ancestry. The answer is no.

So no hope indeed.

Good, yet sad at the same time..
