[mr_mister]

I'd bet my life Stoinis won't get a fifty

 

[trundler]

Fmd

 

[Spark]

can we please bring in wade for khawaja and play him over stoinis who isn't even bowling now

 

[trundler]

Why not Handscomb or Turner?

 

[Spark]

Why not Handscomb or Turner?

handscomb is already in so he's a given, turner can't throw

 

[Gob]

**** i hate stoinis

 

[Spark]

this is so crap it's untrue

 

[mr_mister]

Least he's middling them

 

[Arachnodouche]

Such a strange career for Stoinis after the almost Houdini act against NZ that brought him to prominence. Sort of similar to how Misbah consistently defied expectations after belting it around in the 07 T20 cup.

 

[Pup Clarke]

Stones looks like a club player here. Blocking out Pretorious

 

[Spark]

the bloke is averaging 15 striking at 70 this year. seriously, how is he still getting games

So you're saying Misbah was expected to be a slogger but ended up being a proper bat? Fair enough I guess but at least he kept scoring runs. Stoinis has become useless

Yeah, the comparison ends there. Misbah became an inspirational figure didn't he?

Stoinis going alright for now though. Needs to keep chipping it around and get Warner back on strike.

 

[Arachnodouche]

Well done, Warner. What a monumental comeback this has been. I know he's been a jerk in the past but he's shown real steel this last month. On his way to dominating the Ashes too I'll wager.

 

[Spark]

stoinis eh

 

[MW1304]

N'aw poor Stoiny.

 

[mr_mister]

Maxwell please do something

 

[mr_mister]

Put this pop gun bowler in his place

 

[MW1304]

Put this pop gun bowler in his place

Seriously one of the worst overs I've seen in a while. He's making an effort to bowl slow leg-cutters, but pitching them at a nothing short length, wide of off-stump.

You'd be annoyed at your 10-year-old kid for it.

 

[MW1304]

Did anyone else just hear Ian Smith say 'far from unpossible'?
