Ok, as you may know its Summer now! and that means its the official Cricket Season is here. So from the approval of Luke, I decided to make a [Official Cricket Thread] where you can talk about CRICKET!, from Domestic Cricket to International Cricket. Whatever it may be, as long as its Cricket related. But most importantly make sure you obey the rules and regulations which are found here: www.myps3.com.au/ And last but not least ENJOY!

All the [Official] information regarding cricket in Australia from International 20/20 matches to Domestic test matches (whatever it may be) can be found right here: www.cricket.com.au/

Good luck with your future endeavour, Ricky Ponting. You will always be the greatest batsman and fielder in my eyes.

Not sure if Don would even come close to Ponting as a fieldsman, but totally different era.
Yea I was more referring to a batter, and he said greatest so I took it that he meant from all time.

Yeah I don't think anyone will ever argue against that, but as a fielder as well there is a case for Ponting.
Oh most definately, Ponting was a superb fielder - cat like reflexes. Picked up a ticket today to go see the game on sunday against India with the boys, should be a good one!

India need to make 290 to win, because Sri Lank just did what the Aussies did over the weekend. Kicked arse!!!

EDIT: India 1 wicket for 0 run(s).

Trollololol. That is interesting, getting down the business end of the show. And I know one of the guys who are still in it.

Yeah I watch it, who do you know from the show? Most of them should get picked up by state clubs on rookie contracts.

I already noticed the Redbacs debuted Cameron Williams I think his name was the leggy was very raw though got smacked around abit.

I want Ben Cooper to join his brother in SA he's a big hitter.

Yeah, there are probably a few of them that are a chance. Some of the bowlers have been fairly ordinary though.

The one I know is Chris Chellew. They've got it saying "NSW" under his name, but he's from Perth.
The bowlers do seem pretty bad. Couple can bat ok like Cooper and Holland who is also probably the best bowler and is only part time.

Yep. Watched the newest episode today and they brought back the big left arm pace bowler (sam) and he kept bowling beamers in the last over. [Facepalm]
Anyone watch South Africa V New Zealand last night? Bloody exciting stuff!
Chewy & Dutchie are allrounders but are probably the best bowlers from what i've seen in the matches.

Like you guys said it's a shame that all the frontline bowlers succumbed to injury or under performed, I guess that's because most of the young gun bowlers get identified earlier by state sides McDermott, Hazlewood, Cummins etc.

The positive is that we've unearthed abit of batting talent which most state sides should make the most of seeing as that is the position the national team is struggling most in the depth department.

No I didn't

Watched the ending. Not sure how NZ managed to stuff that up. [Facepalm]
There is no I in team
:S
England lose an unlosable game ffs.

Buttlers not having a great time for england a duck then 3 runs.

Why doesn't he just play his normal game of smashing it out of the park rather then sweeping for singles and going out. STUPID.

Bloody England. Had them in my multi. [Rage]
Australia won the toss & chose to bat.

Quite enjoying these highlights of a few of Pontings classic run out's, he used to be a lot more in your face when he was younger lol.

Bah what is this crap? Breaking news Kevin Rudd media conference, I don't GAF about this show the bloody cricket.

When it returns a wicket falls nicely done channel 9... [Facepalm]
At least you're getting some cricket. Doesn't start in Perth 'till 2PM (Another 45mins). [Rage]
