    **Official Comm Bank Series - Aus, Ind & SL ODI's***

    Injuries are part of the game but a physio's job is to ensure proper rehab and conditioning so that a similar injury doesn't bother the player when he makes a comeback, but Kountouris has basically failed on all these counts. What we need is a physio with expertise similar to Errol alcott...

    **Official Comm Bank Series - Aus, Ind & SL ODI's***

    In a perfect world that would be the ideal thing to do but since that isn't the case alternate measures need to be taken, the simplest thing to do would be to prioritise the tours and series we play in and keep the best players fresh for the more important fixtures, but that too can't be done...

    Nothing can be done about that when the players themselves don't want to rest, they have been throwing a fit at the very mention of being rested.

    **Official Comm Bank Series - Aus, Ind & SL ODI's***

    Think Bollinger has played his last game for Australia given his recent injury record and emergence of other young fast bowlers, I admit the bowling hasn't been that good this series but the team think tank has to take some blame for that as well. Through the series we haven't had any clarity...

    ***Official*** Australia in the West Indies 2012

    Look mate I would have no problem with Ponting getting dropped from the ODI side if they were consistent with their explanation of having done that keeping the 2015 world cup in mind, but guys like Mussey, Dussey, Lee keep getting picked in the side which just contradicts the whole theory. Of...

    Sarcasm meter showing a cold reading, surely you can do better than that.

    **Official Comm Bank Series - Aus, Ind & SL ODI's***

    The way we have toyed around with the combination of our side through this series its really not much of a surprise to see such inconsistentcy, we got away with it against India but against Sri Lanka we have looked brittle and clueless.

    ***Official*** South Africa in New Zealand 2012

    Great to see FDP batting in the top order, he just looks like a natural top order batsman and he was just being wasted at #5 and #6.

    ***Official*** England in Sri Lanka 2012

    How can you really blame them for that?! The Sri.Lankan team has been playing without any wages for almost 12 months so its not really easy for them to ignore the IPL riches, so if anyone deserves the flak then its the Sri Lankan cricket board.

    ***Official*** Australia in the West Indies 2012

    Cummins shouldn't even be considered for the test side for some time to come the emphasis for now should be to strengthen his body to cope up with the extra workload of test cricket. As for Marsh it surely is time to move on now, we have been trying to make an international cricketer out of him...

    Australian Domestic Season 2011-12

    Won't be surprised if Blues lose a lot of their younger players to other states because their handling of these players has been piss poor and that's just halting their growth and to make matters worse they have created a leadership vacuum by making SOK the captain.

    ***Official*** Australia in the West Indies 2012

    Can't understand all this ridicule coming Bailey's way, the guy has scored close to 800 runs in the FC cricket this season and he is also among the top scorers for Tassie in the Ryobi cup, his overall career record too is as good if not better compared to all the blokes who we have picked or are...

    **Official Comm Bank Series - Aus, Ind & SL ODI's***

    Great result for India keeps the interest alive till the very last league game but from a cricket pov Sri Lanka's effort in the field last night was cringeworthy to say the very least. Frankly speaking would be a shame if Sri Lanka don't make it into the finals, they have been the most...

    ***Official*** Australia in the West Indies 2012

    So much for the 'perform or perish' crap or maybe that only applied to blokes like Ponting, once again these selectors have proved that they are short sighted and only concerned about making their tenure look good even if it comes at the cost of long term health of Australian cricket. With all...

    Would like to put in a quite word of appreciation for McKay who doesn't get the same attention that big blokes bowling 140 clicks get but still his record and performances have been as good as anyone.

    When we would we finally realise that we need to find some other position other than the slips to hide Watto in the field.

    Nothing against Watto but don't thing captaincy has had anything to do with the game the way it stands, India were cruising and all of a sudden lost wickets playing **** shots. Also won't it have been worth it had Pathan been sent ahead of Jadeja.

    **Official Comm Bank Series - Aus, Ind & SL ODI's***

    The fact is from the moment Forrest came into the side we decided to get too cute with the makeup of our team and since then anybody is batting anywhere and that's where we have been found out a bit. Someone like Christian is supposed to be a batsman who bowls and chips in with a few wickets...
