I am less confident now, although the final quote is good. He’ll bowl through some pain.

If the big 4 (yep I’m including Scotty Boland) can get through the first couple of Tests, then Jhye Richardson might become available too. He’s a menace.

(Starting to sound like the poms now - “if only our bowlers can be fit!”)😂

Green probably more important now. He can bowl some nasty short stuff so the others don’t have to. Moreso than Beau (who I love!).

In any Test, if two of the Big 4 can play and Green can bowl, we can get away with someone else in there.

Tbf even if he isn't, there's one Mr S. Boland who's more than proven enough to give me night terrors. Even if England can start the series with their 3 best quicks, only Mark Wood has red ball experience in Australia. Don't think there's much of a contest about who has the stronger bowling line-up.

Is "content capture" another way of saying:

A) press conference

B) information, or

C) complete waste of time

I’ve got heartburn - Barrel has never played all 5 and only back to back once, weakens our batting considerably with no captain dependable. Most of the reserves have their own injury issues (Jhye, Neser , Doggett) Luckily seeing Tesco introduce avocado ripeness scanners made me feel safe. We can’t lose to a nation that can’t pick a ripe avo right?

Cummins will take 50 wickets in the season and nothing will convince me otherwise.
