Yowie that is brilliant. A sound of music song somehow wound into an article on Marnus. Best post of the day award.

How do you solve a problem like Marnus? The four options facing selectors as dry spell turns into drought

I don’t mind where he bats but he should never bowl again. He should also not be involved in any review decisions. Coaches should tell him his job is to just score runs and stop eating or drinking whatever makes him manic

Nice round up Billy. I agree with your selections and feel the best 4 teams left are Chiefs, Lions, Bills and Ravens. I can’t go past the Chiefs as Mahomes just thrives at play offs and he will be at home this year. Chiefs have been lucky all season but when it’s tight Mahomes just knows how to win

Just checked out that catch KP. Another brilliant piece of athleticism.
Both brilliant catches and deserve the applause

Selectors slam door shut on four Test careers after finally looking to the future with new-look tour squad

Agree to all Bush , just unlucky. Could add to his all rounder status, one of the best fielders in the game. The catch in BBL up in Brisbane last week was the best I’ve ever seen.

Some players seem to be the darlings of selectors like a couple of Marshes ( not their fault) but not Maxi

Yep fair enough 13th. I think Zampa gave up a while ago and without FC cricket it makes it very hard to pick him. Maxwell however should be considered unlucky. I’m not sure it was always him who decided not to play FC games, often scheduling has prevented him playing eg Pakistan white ball series last Nov.But the point you make about chasing the short form dollars is relevant

Thanks PD wasn’t aware that Zampa had concerns over fitness but it’s a shame as I think he could have worked in tandem with Lyon especially in SL ir India. Maxi is different. Really think he was hard done by with selection and is one of the most talented cricketers I’ve ever seen but his chances seem over now and yes, a younger bloke should get the opportunity.

When Warner burst on the scene it was Ricky Ponting who said that “if you are good enough you should play all formats”. Really feel for Maxwell and Zampa who are certainly good enough but for reasons only known to selectors have not been given many chances at Test level. Maxwell must be confused when he sees Konstas playing reverse scoops on the first morning of a test match….

Nice article Malcolm. You have more knowledge regarding the amount of revenue made by India and the influence of the BCCI. Do Aust and England boards have a backbone or do we roll over for the BCCI? I think it’s a disgrace that India won’t go to Pakistan for the Champions Trophy while world cricket just shrugs it shoulders and say it’s India so it’s ok. I know there are precedents like Australia not going to Sri Lanka for the 1996 WC but is India’s decision not to go to Pakistan based on security or petty Political grandstanding?

Malcolm Conn: Ashes under threat - Two divisions won't save Test cricket but India can, if they care

Well done Arnab. Lots of double standards from ECB and BCCI

This test following same pattern as Perth

Relentless Boland rampant on SCG seamer, third umpire under fire over contentious calls as Aussies rip through India

I think there is a collective sigh around Australia when Marnus starts screaming that there was an edge. “Review capt, it was bat”. The whole team must laugh about it .

Flem’s Verdict: There’s a bit of Deano magic in Konstas, Cummins nails crucial calls and MCG atmosphere an all-timer

Good call SCG. Cummins captaincy is a lot about his players winning with sportsmanship not the ugly way of previous teams

Nor should Marnus be listened to at Review decisions

Ok Jeff you are freaking me out now. We start the Twilight Zone ramble and you change names on me!!

Australia’s hopes fading with bowling duo going missing in action as Reddy’s ton of class rescues India

Hope we are in for a classic Sarge. We might have one of those rare tests where all results are possible on final afternoon. Lyon has to be the key but I’ve been really impressed with Boland’s accuracy and McGrath like pressure

We just need some uneven bounce and Bolo will really come into play with LBW and hitting stumps

Thanks Jeff. Just looked him up which I should have done before posting. Maybe I’m stuck in the wrong zone man

It paid off for Konstas. It’s how he plays, sometimes you just look like a goose when it goes wrong.

Agree Chanon. 100 odd in front and the wicket will play tricks on day 5. I’m confident we can still win but Lyon needs to lift.

Rowdy, Who is Rod Serling ?

Choppy you have to stop writing such sensible, unbiased and interesting comments. You might get banned from here soon. Seriously, with 2 days to go and we are still over 100 ahead so I’d rather be in our position than the Indians. They played really well today and the next two days will be fascinating.

Well done Jeff, good insight

Kid Konstas is amazing but King Kohli is a disgrace and should’ve been banned for shoulder charge
