M Hayden
M Elliot
R Ponting
B Hodge
D Lehmann
A Symonds
A Gilchrist+
M Johnson
B Lee
D Bollinger
S Tait

Really didn't expect our bowling to be this woeful. Would replace Tait as well if I had another reasonable option.

 

[Matteh]

Ouch, destroyed.

 

[Matteh]

First XI for the FC. See no real reason to change it.

 

[Simon]

A couple of close matches. One Day Round 3 matches will be on Sunday.

Provisional Asia/NZ XI versus Eng/SA- R4 FC

A Chopra
*Z Roberts
R Dravid
+K Sangakkara
H Raza
S Badrinath
S Yashpal
K Weerartne
B Guy
V Kumar
M Muralitharan

Not happy with the recent bowling performances, but due to the stupid seamer friendly pitches Kumar gets another chance. Raza needs some runs so pretty much his last chance.

Don't question the selections of the CWXI National Coach.

Didn't Raza score most his runs against the Academy side. They don't really count as matches, more like training runs.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Yeah actually, how come we're the only side who doesn't play the academy twice? Seems a bit of a joke to me...

 

[Mister Wright]

****s sake.

awta

 

[Simon]

Just unlucky really, draw was random.

TBH though, stats wise there isnt too much difference between the Academy and Australia in FC.
