The NBL remains the most even competition in Australia.

🚨 New @auscricketpod Out Now with guest co-host @lithgowflashman We discuss Maxwell's retirement and the legacy he has left for white-ball players. I also raise the question if Cummins is burnt out as Aussie skipper. Youtube: youtu.be/wTko7Pj5qks?si=cLop… Apple: podcasts.apple.com/au/podcas… Spotify: open.spotify.com/episode/4Ax…

Trifecta in the Melbourne Cup to C Maher is quite something.

Jackson Bird now outright third on the all time most Sheffield Shield wickets. He has gone past the great Andy Bichel and is 4 off Michael Kasprowich on 431 wickets. 40 years of age next month the Tasmanian quick. Boland fans rightfully think they have been stiff behind these guys for a few years. The 🦑 had to deal with it for a decade.

The great Clarrie Grimmett with 531.

Test hopefuls Konstas Patterson Davies All out in single figures again. Bell and Bird on fire.

3 Sheffield Shield games before the first Test in Perth. What an amazing opportunity for some batsmen to finally knock the door down.

Australian sports fans are all angry now. The huge positive out of this poor series, is that it’s shown again for the 100th time, just how much we care about Test cricket still.

Whatever happens with the team back home in Australia, the very first order of business is to reinstate the Australian keeper back to 7.

The greatest disaster in recent memory Marnus

Most to gain tonight on Day 5 1) Marnus 2)Daylight 3)Connolly 4) Lyon (with a win) 5) Inglis (cementing spot)

Jackson Bird turns 40 in a month. 3 for 15 in his return. His Scalps. Konstas Maddinson Davies Domestic cricket goat.
