    *Official* Australia tour of New Zealand Feb-Mar 2024

    Hazlewood is seriously good isn't he? Getting pretty close to the all-time Aussie 2nd xi now... If the first is usually Davidson/Lindwall + Lillee and McGrath, then the second xi is the other of Davidson/Lindwall + Cummins + ??? Depends what role you want Miller to play I guess. (And...

    Neil Wagner Retires

    Felt like he'd bowl back foot no-balls every time in some spells but just managed to stay inside.... It does sound a bit condescending but he really did get the most out of his fairly limited range talents. There were days when he was a legit very good left-arm quick/swing bowler, but they...

    DoG's Test Innings and Bowling Performances. Updates thread.

    Nothing will be perfect. It seems logical to say someone scoring runs against Hadlee in 1975 had an easier time of it than someone scoring runs against him in 1985, so I think career-to-date averages seem logically better than using final averages. However bowlers who had bad starts to their...
