Good luck to NSW vs the (what rhymes with Vics?!) in the Pura Cup/Sheffield Shield Final. They deserve to play on the SCG, not the NRL! Go boys! Bring it home to where it belongs....
I don't like the idea of sending in the Aussie quicks for NSW, the current side has very good momentum, Cameron really deserves to play, Bollinger too if he hadn't got injured. VIC with their lack of regular international players basically have had their first XI choice all season (bar injuries), that will be their biggest advantage and why they have been successful. Might go along and watch a few days of the match.
Cameron absolutely deserves to play. He's on fire and I don't think there is a batsman in Australia who wants to face him at the moment. To be perfectly honest NSW's top three quicks at the moment (red-ball cricket) should be Clark/Lee/Cameron. Bollinger very unlucky to get injured when he did. I can't justify a spot for Bracken.
Lee/Clark/MacGill vs Hussey/Hodge/White later today will be the major deciding factor in who gets ahead I reckon.Â
Blues on top after day 2, with MacGill's bowling of Hodge being the key turning point. Lee cleaned up the tail and Clark got rid of White with a cracking in swinger. Move over Richie.....
Blues have got it wrapped up. NSW 281 & 5/352 VIC 216 Katich broke Bevan's record. 1506 runs @ 94.12 for the season.
Hussey Jaques Ponting Katich Clarke Symonds Hayden has had a good run, the only way is downhill for him really, time to move on, play IPL.
