1 00:00:00,480 --> 00:00:04,359 Speaker 1: Well, it was ducks for the premiere Ashes contenders, centuries 2 00:00:04,400 --> 00:00:07,160 Speaker 1: for the crop further a little bit further back. So 3 00:00:07,240 --> 00:00:10,600 Speaker 1: what does it all mean? Welcome to Domesticated. I'm justin Edwards, 4 00:00:10,840 --> 00:00:12,760 Speaker 1: Fox Screet's Nick Savage is alongside me. 5 00:00:12,960 --> 00:00:13,200 Speaker 2: Nick. 6 00:00:13,600 --> 00:00:16,360 Speaker 1: Let's start with one of the duck makers, Jake Weatherwold 7 00:00:16,800 --> 00:00:19,639 Speaker 1: zero and twelve. We had him on the show in 8 00:00:19,680 --> 00:00:21,960 Speaker 1: our last show and now he was coming off with 9 00:00:22,040 --> 00:00:24,720 Speaker 1: great innings, a bit tougher in this shield match. 10 00:00:24,920 --> 00:00:26,440 Speaker 2: Well yeah, in both innings. 11 00:00:26,079 --> 00:00:28,800 Speaker 3: Down in Victoria, he was tasked with walking out with 12 00:00:28,840 --> 00:00:31,600 Speaker 3: about thirty minutes to go, which is obviously one of 13 00:00:31,640 --> 00:00:34,160 Speaker 3: the toughest situations for any open and red bull cricket, 14 00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:36,320 Speaker 3: and he couldn't do it. On both occasions he fell 15 00:00:36,360 --> 00:00:39,760 Speaker 3: before stumps. It should be acknowledged that he in both 16 00:00:39,760 --> 00:00:43,320 Speaker 3: occasions was dismissed by beauty of delivery by Perry and 17 00:00:43,800 --> 00:00:46,600 Speaker 3: a favorite of ours Ferguson Neil on both occasions, but 18 00:00:46,760 --> 00:00:49,919 Speaker 3: obviously terrible timing with a squad expected for the Ashes 19 00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:52,839 Speaker 3: this week, especially with a lot of the other kind 20 00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:55,600 Speaker 3: of contenders as you mentioned, struggling. 21 00:00:55,240 --> 00:00:55,760 Speaker 2: A bit this week. 22 00:00:55,760 --> 00:00:57,720 Speaker 3: If he had gotten some runs, even if he had 23 00:00:57,760 --> 00:01:00,240 Speaker 3: gotten through that tough period, he could have really his 24 00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:02,920 Speaker 3: name up there for a potential debut. 25 00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:04,800 Speaker 2: I still think he's a gun. 26 00:01:04,959 --> 00:01:06,960 Speaker 3: I still think he's a good chance of maybe earning 27 00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:09,600 Speaker 3: a Baggy Green this summer. Depends on a lot of factors, 28 00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:12,520 Speaker 3: the makeup of the Test side. Does Marnus open stuff 29 00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:14,720 Speaker 3: We'll talk about in a second, But yeah, not not 30 00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:15,680 Speaker 3: great timing from him. 31 00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:19,400 Speaker 1: And did it felt like had he got a big score, 32 00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:22,000 Speaker 1: had he go to Bee hundreds, you could almost lock 33 00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:23,960 Speaker 1: him in for a baggy green. That's how it was 34 00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:27,000 Speaker 1: shaping three centuries in his first three half century, sorry, 35 00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:30,319 Speaker 1: in his first four innings to start the Shield season, 36 00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:33,840 Speaker 1: and then goes zero and twelve. With the Ash squad 37 00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:37,560 Speaker 1: being named this week, it's just the wrong time for that. 38 00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:39,920 Speaker 1: So we'll see how that happens with Jake Weatherwood. The 39 00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:43,360 Speaker 1: other duck came from Cameron Green, who another player that 40 00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:44,640 Speaker 1: we're looking at for the Ashes. 41 00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:46,360 Speaker 2: Zero got forty one in the. 42 00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:49,000 Speaker 1: Second innings, but the game was largely dead then and 43 00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:52,640 Speaker 1: didn't bowl, So there's a lot of questions about Cameron 44 00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:53,320 Speaker 1: Green at the moment. 45 00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:56,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, him not bowling for me feels like more of 46 00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:58,960 Speaker 3: an issue he has one more shield around next week 47 00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:00,440 Speaker 3: to get some overs. 48 00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:00,800 Speaker 2: Under his belt. 49 00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:03,520 Speaker 3: But we're talking about a player who is expected to 50 00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:07,600 Speaker 3: be Australia's first choice all rounder for the Ashes and 51 00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:11,200 Speaker 3: this year he's bowled four overs still in competitive cricket 52 00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:13,520 Speaker 3: and that's just not enough overs under his belt. It 53 00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:15,880 Speaker 3: is reassuring to see this footage came out of him 54 00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:18,840 Speaker 3: bowling about twenty minutes half an hour after the match 55 00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:19,679 Speaker 3: in the middle. 56 00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:20,799 Speaker 2: Of the pitch. Great to see. 57 00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:22,639 Speaker 3: I don't think it was at one hundred percent necessarily, 58 00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:24,880 Speaker 3: but he's going through his action. But he needs to 59 00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:27,120 Speaker 3: be bowling spells. There are going to be times this 60 00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:29,920 Speaker 3: summer when the big quicks and line will need to 61 00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:32,760 Speaker 3: be rotated. They'll need a half hour break and that's 62 00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:35,840 Speaker 3: when Green and potentially Webster will be crucial. So if 63 00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:38,200 Speaker 3: Green's not bowling for that first Test, he may be 64 00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:40,200 Speaker 3: squeeze out of that eleven because he's not getting the 65 00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:43,080 Speaker 3: runs either. He's yet to get a fifty this season 66 00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:46,160 Speaker 3: since the World Test Championship Final in June. He only 67 00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:48,560 Speaker 3: has one fifty and I was in the West Indies. 68 00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:52,560 Speaker 3: Is he going to be Australia's number three? It makes 69 00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:56,080 Speaker 3: sense from a team balance point of view, but minus 70 00:02:56,120 --> 00:02:58,120 Speaker 3: Abushein is just the best number three in the country. 71 00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:00,640 Speaker 2: We'll spend this just before we went on air. He 72 00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:01,679 Speaker 2: has been batting so well. 73 00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:03,560 Speaker 3: Right now as we're chatting, he's on eighty odd in 74 00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:06,400 Speaker 3: a One Day Cup game. He's the best number three 75 00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:09,240 Speaker 3: Australia has had in a generation. So to me, it 76 00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:11,959 Speaker 3: feels like that should be Marster's spot. Kawaj just said 77 00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:13,919 Speaker 3: that as well. He'd love to see his Queens and 78 00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:17,000 Speaker 3: team at batting it through and Green considering his form, 79 00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:19,880 Speaker 3: considering he maybe needed as a bowler, to give him 80 00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:22,080 Speaker 3: a rest after potentially a long spell in the field, 81 00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:25,800 Speaker 3: Green at six makes sense tough, Webster. I know he 82 00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:28,080 Speaker 3: hasn't been in the runs either, but yeah, a lot 83 00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:30,160 Speaker 3: of questions for national selectors over the next few days. 84 00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:30,760 Speaker 2: Webster. 85 00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:32,840 Speaker 1: If he had to put one hundred on the board, 86 00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:34,680 Speaker 1: that changes the conversation as well. But he had a 87 00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:38,000 Speaker 1: disappointing game eleven and six with the bat. Took one 88 00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:40,240 Speaker 1: week here. Got Marcus Harris out in the first innings 89 00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:42,520 Speaker 1: opened the bowling as well, although I'm not sure how 90 00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:44,720 Speaker 1: much we can read into that because Marnus Labashaine opened 91 00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:46,280 Speaker 1: the bowling for Queensland in one of the innings. 92 00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:47,280 Speaker 2: It does. 93 00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:51,120 Speaker 1: It feels like in Australia's first Test eleven it'll be 94 00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:54,000 Speaker 1: two of Labashane will be there and it'll be two 95 00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:59,920 Speaker 1: of weather Alled, Webster and Green. Which two do you 96 00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:01,760 Speaker 1: think it's going to be at the moment? I think 97 00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:06,000 Speaker 1: it'll be weather Alled and Green despite the duck boys 98 00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:08,480 Speaker 1: at the moment. Despite that, I think it's going to 99 00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:11,320 Speaker 1: be them. What do you think that's who I would pick? 100 00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:13,120 Speaker 3: If I was in Georgia Valley's position, that that is 101 00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:15,600 Speaker 3: who i'd pick. I feel as though they are going 102 00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:18,799 Speaker 3: to stick by their policy of the six best batters 103 00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:20,880 Speaker 3: in the country and kind of squeeze them in and 104 00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:23,400 Speaker 3: manipulate them however they can. So I think they're going 105 00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:28,040 Speaker 3: to go minus opening with Cameron Green three and Bowebster 106 00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:32,000 Speaker 3: at six. I don't love that necessarily a lot of 107 00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:34,760 Speaker 3: talents to bowling options. It does make sense in that regard, 108 00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:36,760 Speaker 3: but yes, I'm in your boat as well. I'd love 109 00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:39,280 Speaker 3: to see a specialist opener. It's probably worth acknowledging as well. 110 00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:42,359 Speaker 3: With Green, he's duck. In the first innings he smoked 111 00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:45,200 Speaker 3: it to cover. It was a beautiful, full blooded off 112 00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:47,960 Speaker 3: drive towards like a mid off cover either side too 113 00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:52,240 Speaker 3: many it was a boundary, so yes, a duck. It's 114 00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:53,839 Speaker 3: a bit of a cliche, but he's going about it 115 00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:56,840 Speaker 3: the right way. He does still look okay at the crease. 116 00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:58,760 Speaker 3: I just don't want to see him batting in the 117 00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:00,880 Speaker 3: first few overs of a Test. I want to see 118 00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:03,160 Speaker 3: him coming in in that sort of counterpunching knock at 119 00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:05,799 Speaker 3: number six, which he's done very well in the past. 120 00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:08,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, options there for Australia, and there is still one 121 00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:11,839 Speaker 1: more shield game before that first Ashes Test, which we 122 00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:14,520 Speaker 1: think the entire Ashes squad just about is going to play. 123 00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:16,960 Speaker 1: News today that Travis Head is going to skip the 124 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:19,240 Speaker 1: last couple of T twenties against India to play a 125 00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:20,120 Speaker 1: bit of shield cricket. 126 00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:22,080 Speaker 2: So for first class. 127 00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:24,240 Speaker 1: Lovers like you and I, that shield round is going 128 00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:28,080 Speaker 1: to be blockbuster. Brendan Doggett, let's move to the quicks now. 129 00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:30,520 Speaker 1: He looks like he's going to be in that Ashes 130 00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:32,760 Speaker 1: squad six for forty eight. He got he missed the 131 00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:34,880 Speaker 1: first couple of games with the hamstring injury, but just 132 00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:36,720 Speaker 1: came back, hasn't missed beat. 133 00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:39,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, if he's fit he's in that squad. He's obviously 134 00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:42,039 Speaker 3: been the reserve for a while now. He's in the 135 00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:45,240 Speaker 3: touring squad for the West Indies tour before he had 136 00:05:45,279 --> 00:05:47,760 Speaker 3: an injury then as well. His own worst enemy is 137 00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:50,520 Speaker 3: his own body. Unfortunately, he's had so many niggles over 138 00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:51,560 Speaker 3: the last few years. 139 00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:52,960 Speaker 2: It's pretty frustrating for him. 140 00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:54,720 Speaker 3: But if he can stay fit, he's a very good 141 00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:57,520 Speaker 3: chance of making his debut this summer and he deserves it. 142 00:05:57,560 --> 00:06:00,279 Speaker 3: Six Fergainst India a last summer ten weeks. It's in 143 00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:02,840 Speaker 3: the Shield final six for here at the Whacka. 144 00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:04,520 Speaker 2: He really has to be in that squad. 145 00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:07,640 Speaker 3: He's consistent, he's quick, he's talented, skillful. 146 00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:08,719 Speaker 2: He really should be there. 147 00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:12,640 Speaker 1: If I said to you, Brendan Doggett will play Test cricket, 148 00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:16,159 Speaker 1: would you think that's being too grandiose at this point? 149 00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:19,880 Speaker 3: I suspect so, I think because he will be in 150 00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:22,000 Speaker 3: that squad for that first Test, but may not play 151 00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:24,599 Speaker 3: for obvious reasons. They've got Ball and Stark Hazer with there, 152 00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:27,760 Speaker 3: and then Penning how the national sectors go about things. 153 00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:30,560 Speaker 3: There are big breaks between those first three Tests. There's 154 00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:32,640 Speaker 3: a chance that if the pitches are lively and the 155 00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:34,719 Speaker 3: match is done three or four days. The same three 156 00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:37,599 Speaker 3: quicks will play those first three Tests, and then Cummins 157 00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:40,400 Speaker 3: might be available, Joy Richardson might be available. The might 158 00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:42,680 Speaker 3: go horses of courses and go Michael Nissa at the 159 00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:45,440 Speaker 3: Gabba with a pink ball. It's not a locked thing 160 00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:47,560 Speaker 3: that he will make that Test debut, but I think 161 00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:49,760 Speaker 3: it's a very good chance. Here is that first reserve, 162 00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:53,080 Speaker 3: and if the nationallyctor stick with a similar policy to 163 00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:55,760 Speaker 3: the batters, the four best quicks who are available, and 164 00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:58,440 Speaker 3: they do rotate through player management, he's a good chance 165 00:06:58,440 --> 00:06:59,960 Speaker 3: of playing at some stage this summer. 166 00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:01,880 Speaker 2: I think even not this summer. 167 00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:05,320 Speaker 1: Looking further ahead to the future now he is past thirty, 168 00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:07,560 Speaker 1: but I think he's got enough years left in him 169 00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:11,040 Speaker 1: that with Australia rotating some quicks around, there's a big 170 00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:15,200 Speaker 1: congested twelve months from October twenty six to October twenty seven. 171 00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:18,040 Speaker 1: I think at some point we will see Brendan Doggett 172 00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:20,880 Speaker 1: in a baggy green. Whether that's this summer or not, 173 00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:22,320 Speaker 1: we'll have to wait and see, and that depends on 174 00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:23,920 Speaker 1: the fitness of the other quicks, because he's not going 175 00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:26,120 Speaker 1: to jump ahead of any of the other four. I 176 00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:27,600 Speaker 1: don't think the other quicks. 177 00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:28,720 Speaker 2: It looks as though. 178 00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:30,800 Speaker 1: Sean Abbott and Michael Nissa are the other two in contention. 179 00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:32,840 Speaker 1: We don't think the selectors are going to go with 180 00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:36,640 Speaker 1: Fergus O'Neil just yet. And their moves in taking Abbott 181 00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:38,880 Speaker 1: out of the T twenty squad, in giving Nissa a 182 00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:41,480 Speaker 1: rest from the last Shill game, it looks like those 183 00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:45,080 Speaker 1: are the next guys in line Nissa perhaps maybe in 184 00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:47,240 Speaker 1: the pink ball Test in Brisbane. Is that how you're 185 00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:47,600 Speaker 1: saying it? 186 00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:48,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, certainly. 187 00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:50,280 Speaker 3: I think they are the three that have been name 188 00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:52,840 Speaker 3: checked by the national selectors in the past. It would 189 00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:55,640 Speaker 3: obviously be a great story for Sean Abbott, so you know, 190 00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:58,040 Speaker 3: he's been stored of domestic cricket for twelve years. For 191 00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:00,440 Speaker 3: him to finally in that baggy green in and out 192 00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:03,800 Speaker 3: the Test scord for five years. Anissa deserves it. He's 193 00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:06,840 Speaker 3: an absolute gun. He's been so consistent for Queensland. Has 194 00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:09,320 Speaker 3: anyone taken more wickets at the Gabba over the past 195 00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:10,560 Speaker 3: decade I doubt it. 196 00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:12,320 Speaker 2: So he's very deserving as well. 197 00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:15,040 Speaker 3: There've been a lot of panic about the pace cartel, 198 00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:17,240 Speaker 3: but there are a lot of experienced talented quicks in 199 00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:19,920 Speaker 3: the side who I think are ready for Test cricket. 200 00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:22,320 Speaker 3: And you mentioned Fergus O'Neil. I said it a few 201 00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:24,840 Speaker 3: weeks ago twenty twenty seven ashes in England. I think 202 00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:26,880 Speaker 3: that's when we should get Fergus O'Neil in there. He's 203 00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:28,360 Speaker 3: perfectly suited for those conditions. 204 00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:33,200 Speaker 1: Plenty of time for him another Victorian Campbell Kellaway did 205 00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:35,520 Speaker 1: and he set the world on fire in that innings 206 00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:38,800 Speaker 1: one hundred and forty seven. Only Manus Labushane's got a 207 00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:40,400 Speaker 1: highest scorer in the Sheffi, which she was so far 208 00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:42,959 Speaker 1: this season. We spoke about kell Away at the start 209 00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:46,400 Speaker 1: of the summer about his potential. He's turned twenty three 210 00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:50,000 Speaker 1: over the weekend. He is a player of the future 211 00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:52,480 Speaker 1: to watch for Australia and it might be coming sooner 212 00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:53,240 Speaker 1: than we all think. 213 00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:54,600 Speaker 2: Seriously talented player. 214 00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:58,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think we saw recently that Australia a tour 215 00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:02,079 Speaker 3: to India, Kellaway and Sam Constas opened the batting. That 216 00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:05,080 Speaker 3: could be a show as Test opening partnership for a decade. 217 00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:07,400 Speaker 3: Kawaja is obviously very close to the end of his 218 00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:09,640 Speaker 3: Test career. That might be this summer. It might be 219 00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:11,959 Speaker 3: next year. We don't know that for sure, but when 220 00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:14,320 Speaker 3: he does, step aside, Constaus and Kellowy are the two 221 00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:16,800 Speaker 3: people who could slot into that role. I think for 222 00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:20,040 Speaker 3: sure he's a star of the future. He's getting runs. 223 00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:22,840 Speaker 3: His only thing now is consistency. He seems to be 224 00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:25,199 Speaker 3: in a period where he's either out for single figures 225 00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:27,200 Speaker 3: or he goes on to get one hundred. If you 226 00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:29,920 Speaker 3: just convert some of those single figures to getting through 227 00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:33,320 Speaker 3: the new ball, getting even just a knitty gritty thirty forty, 228 00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:36,000 Speaker 3: or just to set a platform, if he can consistently 229 00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:38,000 Speaker 3: do that time and time again, he's going to be 230 00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:40,880 Speaker 3: a gun for the future. He obviously wasn't opening twelve 231 00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:43,280 Speaker 3: months ago. Only was thrown into that role in November 232 00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:46,080 Speaker 3: last year, and he's been Victoria's leading run score since. 233 00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:49,360 Speaker 1: And that is he's still learning how to open, he's 234 00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:51,240 Speaker 1: still learning what getting through the new ball looks like. 235 00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:53,560 Speaker 1: He's only done it for twelve months or so, but 236 00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:56,000 Speaker 1: he's got three Shef Foo Shield centuries in those twelve months. 237 00:09:56,360 --> 00:09:59,040 Speaker 1: I think he's making a case and if he continues 238 00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:02,960 Speaker 1: in this form, he's making a case to be us. 239 00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:06,080 Speaker 1: When Kowaja's first long term replacement ahead of Sam Constace 240 00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:10,080 Speaker 1: because he looks a more complete player. Constace is still 241 00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:13,000 Speaker 1: very much learning and Constace is twenty. He's got so 242 00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:17,839 Speaker 1: much time. Kellaway perhaps looks a little more ready than 243 00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:20,880 Speaker 1: Sam Constace does, even though Constas has already played Test cricket. 244 00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:24,240 Speaker 3: I mean you sum it up perfectly there. Constaince is twenty. 245 00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:27,080 Speaker 3: His technique is still coming under the microscope. He hasn't 246 00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:29,960 Speaker 3: looked his best even this week in the Shield with 247 00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:32,160 Speaker 3: the match basically done up. In the Gabba, he got 248 00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:34,839 Speaker 3: out slogging skying one to mid off. It was a 249 00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:37,720 Speaker 3: pretty ugly dismissal. But he's still working out his game. 250 00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:40,680 Speaker 3: He only has three first class tons and two of 251 00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:43,160 Speaker 3: those were in the same match about fourteen months ago, 252 00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:45,960 Speaker 3: so he's still work in progress. Everyone has been saying 253 00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:48,920 Speaker 3: the same thing. He's still finding his own game. Kellaway 254 00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:51,880 Speaker 3: is close. It's looking like a complete first class and 255 00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:53,120 Speaker 3: potentially Test cricketer. 256 00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:54,319 Speaker 2: So I support you there. 257 00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:56,520 Speaker 3: He's a very good chance when Kowaja hangs up the 258 00:10:56,559 --> 00:10:58,120 Speaker 3: boots to take that role at the top of the order. 259 00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:01,280 Speaker 1: Camill Kellaway my best innings of the round of Shield cricket, 260 00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:03,480 Speaker 1: but there were a lot of hundreds. There were eight 261 00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:05,400 Speaker 1: centuries in this round of Shield cricket, which is the 262 00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:08,360 Speaker 1: same amount as they were in the first two put together. 263 00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:09,439 Speaker 2: So lots of. 264 00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:12,520 Speaker 1: Batsman putting their hand up and I'm calling the centuries 265 00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:14,960 Speaker 1: for the forgotten men of Australian cricket. There were lots 266 00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:17,720 Speaker 1: of them. Cameron Bancroft got one hundred and twenty two 267 00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:21,800 Speaker 1: for wa like forgotten man in Australian cricket. Is there 268 00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:25,000 Speaker 1: any way back him into Australian into an Australian fold? 269 00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:28,320 Speaker 3: Do you think it feels too little too late? I mean, 270 00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:30,320 Speaker 3: there's obviously a few names I've mentioned just before. They're 271 00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:33,560 Speaker 3: still probably ahead of him in the apparent pecking order. 272 00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:35,120 Speaker 2: He's got experience. 273 00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:37,240 Speaker 3: He a couple of years ago was probably the most 274 00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:41,240 Speaker 3: consistent batter, but his time was probably when David Warner retired. 275 00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:43,120 Speaker 2: That was probably his time to take that role. 276 00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:46,800 Speaker 3: And in the end National electors didn't go for specialist opener. 277 00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:50,320 Speaker 3: They've been cycling through trying to reinvent middle order players 278 00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:52,720 Speaker 3: as open as since none of them have worked out. 279 00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:56,199 Speaker 3: Labiche might join that kind of cycle this summer, and 280 00:11:56,520 --> 00:11:58,480 Speaker 3: unfortunately since in the last years he just hasn't been 281 00:11:58,559 --> 00:12:01,840 Speaker 3: consistent enough, so it feels a little bit too late 282 00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:04,640 Speaker 3: for him unfortunately. But you know, he's still in his 283 00:12:04,679 --> 00:12:06,880 Speaker 3: early thirties. Look at all the great players, Chris Rodgers, 284 00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:09,800 Speaker 3: Michael Hussey, who oh kawaja mean? He was thirty five 285 00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:11,440 Speaker 3: when he came back into the Test side and has 286 00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:13,760 Speaker 3: since been probably the form opener and the world in 287 00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:17,080 Speaker 3: Test cricket. So not the summer for Bancroft. I think 288 00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:19,480 Speaker 3: he just needs to start banging the door down again. 289 00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:22,600 Speaker 3: One great knock isn't probably enough. 290 00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:25,959 Speaker 1: YEA similar situation for Marcus Harris. It feels like he 291 00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:27,679 Speaker 1: got one hundred and one not out for Victoria. But 292 00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:31,280 Speaker 1: it does feel like Australian cricket has moved on from 293 00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:34,320 Speaker 1: Cameron Bancroft and Marcus Harris. Twelve months ago, going into 294 00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:37,840 Speaker 1: the first Test against India, they were seed number one 295 00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:39,800 Speaker 1: and seed number two in the bat off and then 296 00:12:39,880 --> 00:12:42,880 Speaker 1: McSweeney came from nowhere and Constance came from even more 297 00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:46,160 Speaker 1: nowhere to overtake both of them. It feels like Australian 298 00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:49,360 Speaker 1: cricket is done with those two. I think Curtis Patterson 299 00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:53,320 Speaker 1: might have better claims, especially if if you were to 300 00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:55,559 Speaker 1: get an injury to Marnus or Steve Smith for a 301 00:12:55,640 --> 00:12:57,480 Speaker 1: number three or a number four. He got a big 302 00:12:57,480 --> 00:12:59,640 Speaker 1: one hundred and twenty two and the same meanings that 303 00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:02,360 Speaker 1: Smith got one hundred as expected. Steve Smith comes back 304 00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:04,520 Speaker 1: to shield cricket, shows he's better than everybody else. But 305 00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:06,240 Speaker 1: Patterson played really well at the Gamma. 306 00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:09,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think with Curtis Patterson, he's also been in 307 00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:12,120 Speaker 3: a little bit short of consistency this summer. His ideal 308 00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:16,280 Speaker 3: spot's number three, and Marnus is obviously slightly superior to 309 00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:19,680 Speaker 3: him in that regard. So Curtis, is there a chance 310 00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:22,640 Speaker 3: he could open this summer. That's a question that was 311 00:13:22,679 --> 00:13:24,960 Speaker 3: posed to his coach Greg Ship earlier this season, and 312 00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:27,839 Speaker 3: he had no doubt that Curtis could open. There'll be 313 00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:30,280 Speaker 3: a massive smoke he considering he made his Test debut 314 00:13:30,280 --> 00:13:32,760 Speaker 3: at six and did very very well against Cholanka five 315 00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:35,320 Speaker 3: years ago or so now, but it seems like he's 316 00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:38,160 Speaker 3: a bit of an outsider again, someone in his early thirties. 317 00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:41,000 Speaker 2: If there's injury, if there's. 318 00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:43,079 Speaker 3: A massive dip in form, he's a chance for that 319 00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:46,679 Speaker 3: three spot potentially. But I think, you know, as I said, 320 00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:48,400 Speaker 3: for a few people today. There's probably a couple of 321 00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:49,640 Speaker 3: names ahead of him at this stage. 322 00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:52,840 Speaker 1: It feels like all those guys Bancroft, Harris Patterson and 323 00:13:52,880 --> 00:13:55,040 Speaker 1: also Nathan McSweeney who got one hundred, which was great 324 00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:56,920 Speaker 1: to see him back in the runs. That was his 325 00:13:56,920 --> 00:14:00,480 Speaker 1: first hundred since playing Test cricket for Australia. It feels 326 00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:02,160 Speaker 1: like if they had to put that innings in the 327 00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:05,720 Speaker 1: first Shield round, put that big market down and then 328 00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:08,920 Speaker 1: with that confidence going to the second and third maybe 329 00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:11,600 Speaker 1: get another big one that would have them right in 330 00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:14,320 Speaker 1: the frame. But the guy that did that was Manus. 331 00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:17,040 Speaker 1: He put four hundreds together across the One Day Cap 332 00:14:17,040 --> 00:14:19,280 Speaker 1: and the Shield cricket and that's just completely shut the 333 00:14:19,320 --> 00:14:20,160 Speaker 1: door on these guys. 334 00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:20,840 Speaker 2: I have to check. 335 00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:23,000 Speaker 3: The scores might be five to hundreds for Marnas now 336 00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:25,240 Speaker 3: Nathan McSween, I guess I like some of those other. 337 00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:26,720 Speaker 2: Names, he's still in his mid twenties. 338 00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:29,240 Speaker 3: He's still got a long way to go, and obviously 339 00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:30,920 Speaker 3: I think it's fair to say it was a mistake 340 00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:34,880 Speaker 3: making him open against India. He is a perfect number four. 341 00:14:34,920 --> 00:14:38,400 Speaker 3: He's a great number four. Whenever Steve Smith retires, Green 342 00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:40,560 Speaker 3: and McSweeney were probably the two guys they're looking at 343 00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:43,400 Speaker 3: taking that number four slot. I saw see McSweeney having 344 00:14:43,440 --> 00:14:46,480 Speaker 3: a great Test career ahead of him. He's obviously considered 345 00:14:46,520 --> 00:14:48,840 Speaker 3: a leader as well. He's Captain Australia on a number 346 00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:51,320 Speaker 3: of tours and series now, so plenty of time for 347 00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:54,040 Speaker 3: McSweeney as well. You'll just have to wait and see 348 00:14:54,040 --> 00:14:57,040 Speaker 3: how the team sort of shapes over the next twenty 349 00:14:57,040 --> 00:14:58,680 Speaker 3: four months. As we expect it will be a few 350 00:14:58,720 --> 00:15:02,080 Speaker 3: retirements with Steve smith or was mcquija the bowlers, those 351 00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:04,680 Speaker 3: gaps are opening and it's those young guys will certainly be, 352 00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:05,760 Speaker 3: you know, front of the Q. 353 00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:08,120 Speaker 1: It's another great innings in that South Australian game for 354 00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:10,840 Speaker 1: Jake Lehman got in the nineties. Jack Clayton got a 355 00:15:10,920 --> 00:15:14,200 Speaker 1: hundred for Queensland as well. He's one that could maybe 356 00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:16,160 Speaker 1: push in a couple of years. He's one another one 357 00:15:16,200 --> 00:15:17,760 Speaker 1: that's got age on his side. Is a little bit 358 00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:21,160 Speaker 1: older than Constance and Kellaway, but still the right side 359 00:15:21,160 --> 00:15:24,240 Speaker 1: of thirty and if potentially when Steve Smithin's out of 360 00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:25,920 Speaker 1: the team in the next couple of years, Clayton is 361 00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:28,600 Speaker 1: potentially a contender along with guys like McSweeney if he 362 00:15:28,920 --> 00:15:30,920 Speaker 1: puts quite a few hundreds together, is that how you 363 00:15:30,920 --> 00:15:31,360 Speaker 1: see him? 364 00:15:31,560 --> 00:15:35,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think those names Lehman Clayton. I think Australia 365 00:15:35,480 --> 00:15:37,440 Speaker 3: A is probably the next sort of spot for them. 366 00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:39,880 Speaker 3: I'm not too sure when the next Australia A series is. 367 00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:43,760 Speaker 1: Well against the England lines that's going aligns with the 368 00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:45,400 Speaker 1: second Ashes Test exactly right. 369 00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:46,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, so that's early December. 370 00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:50,200 Speaker 3: That's probably a good chance for those younger players to 371 00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:51,320 Speaker 3: get a chance. 372 00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:53,760 Speaker 2: To prove their worth. Yeah, they're probably still a couple 373 00:15:53,760 --> 00:15:54,400 Speaker 2: of years away. 374 00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:57,880 Speaker 3: From serious contention, but get runs underbelt performed for Australia 375 00:15:57,920 --> 00:16:00,000 Speaker 3: A and you know there's going to be Prime Minister 376 00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:02,680 Speaker 3: Eleven's games coming up in the next couple of seasons too. 377 00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:05,640 Speaker 3: I'd love the National sectors give these names ago. That's 378 00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:08,000 Speaker 3: the perfect opportunity of blood them and then higher on 379 00:16:08,120 --> 00:16:08,440 Speaker 3: as a weight. 380 00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:11,280 Speaker 1: I think we might see a pretty Victorian heavy Australia 381 00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:13,720 Speaker 1: A team. I think Kellaway will be there and I 382 00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:16,240 Speaker 1: think the bowling attack could have both Fergus O'Neill and 383 00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:19,120 Speaker 1: Mitch Perry. Mitch Perry with a five for Fergus O'Neil 384 00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:21,440 Speaker 1: got four fur and the Victor three from three to 385 00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:21,840 Speaker 1: start the. 386 00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:24,720 Speaker 3: Shield season only I was bowling one of the best 387 00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:27,800 Speaker 3: spells in Shield and that second things he was genuinely unplayable. 388 00:16:27,880 --> 00:16:30,480 Speaker 3: He was the keeper was up to the stumps, but 389 00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:33,479 Speaker 3: he was still maneuvering it, beating the edge on countless occasions. 390 00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:36,040 Speaker 3: Here the ball on the string, he looks so fantastic. 391 00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:39,280 Speaker 3: The one downside with him is obviously the pace. He's 392 00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:42,000 Speaker 3: not up to the pace of Stark Hazel would commins, 393 00:16:42,120 --> 00:16:44,080 Speaker 3: but yeah, he's an absolute gun. 394 00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:44,640 Speaker 2: He looks normal. 395 00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:47,240 Speaker 3: The Victorian bowling attack is probably the strongest in the 396 00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:49,479 Speaker 3: country at the moment, especially when you're slot Scott. 397 00:16:49,240 --> 00:16:49,880 Speaker 2: Boland in there. 398 00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:53,400 Speaker 3: It's phenomenal. A lot of exciting young quicks and yeah, 399 00:16:53,440 --> 00:16:56,480 Speaker 3: three from three is this the year Victoria get that 400 00:16:56,520 --> 00:16:58,640 Speaker 3: Shield title back under their belt again. 401 00:16:58,680 --> 00:17:00,520 Speaker 2: It's looking pretty solid. 402 00:17:00,680 --> 00:17:02,600 Speaker 1: It could be Will Sutherland Todd Murphy in that bowling 403 00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:05,240 Speaker 1: attack as well. And what I am very excited for 404 00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:07,680 Speaker 1: is in this next round of Shield cricket, where we're 405 00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:09,680 Speaker 1: going to have the whole Australian squad coming. 406 00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:11,440 Speaker 2: This new South Wales. 407 00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:14,480 Speaker 1: Victoria clash is going to be a new South Wales 408 00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:19,080 Speaker 1: bowling attack of Stark Hazlewood Lion and Sean Abbott bowling 409 00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:20,880 Speaker 1: to Campbell Kellaway at the top of the order. That'll 410 00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:24,080 Speaker 1: test his test potential certainly. Then you'll have Scott Bowland 411 00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:26,320 Speaker 1: bowling to Sam Constace, which did not go well for 412 00:17:26,480 --> 00:17:28,440 Speaker 1: him in the One Day Cup game. Didn't go well 413 00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:31,840 Speaker 1: for Constace, so I cannot wait to see that game. 414 00:17:32,040 --> 00:17:33,920 Speaker 1: And what's going to be a big round of shield 415 00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:36,840 Speaker 1: cricket with Travis Head, all these Test guys come into play. 416 00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:39,440 Speaker 3: Everyone gets to the SCG if you're in Sydney, gets 417 00:17:39,440 --> 00:17:41,560 Speaker 3: to the SCG next week. That is that's going to 418 00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:43,280 Speaker 3: be one of the highest standard of shield games we've 419 00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:46,639 Speaker 3: had in a while, having all them available. Obviously for 420 00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:48,400 Speaker 3: the Test guys, this is a good chance for them 421 00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:52,040 Speaker 3: just to test their bodies. Essentially, a lot of those 422 00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:54,679 Speaker 3: names you mentioned haven't done four day five day cricket 423 00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:58,440 Speaker 3: since the West Indies tour. Essentially, Haeswood looks amazing during 424 00:17:58,480 --> 00:18:01,000 Speaker 3: this one white ball series against India, he's been phenomenal. 425 00:18:01,240 --> 00:18:02,600 Speaker 2: He's been putting the ball in an. 426 00:18:02,480 --> 00:18:05,840 Speaker 3: Absolute dime, So good chance for him just to build 427 00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:08,440 Speaker 3: up his workloads head of that first Test. Hopefully chance 428 00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:10,520 Speaker 3: for some of the batters to get some runs under 429 00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:13,320 Speaker 3: the belt, just a bit of confidence head the ashes. Yeah, 430 00:18:13,400 --> 00:18:15,239 Speaker 3: what an awesome round of Shield and hopefully a lot 431 00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:16,720 Speaker 3: of eyeballs on this competition as well. 432 00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:19,359 Speaker 1: Yeah, And speaking more broadly, do you think George Bailey 433 00:18:19,359 --> 00:18:22,239 Speaker 1: in the selection panel will have their idea of the 434 00:18:22,280 --> 00:18:25,280 Speaker 1: first ashes eleven prior to this Shield round or do 435 00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:27,720 Speaker 1: you think there could still be a spot up for grabs. 436 00:18:27,760 --> 00:18:28,480 Speaker 2: Bailey strikes me. 437 00:18:28,520 --> 00:18:30,280 Speaker 1: As the kind of guy that likes to make the 438 00:18:30,320 --> 00:18:32,919 Speaker 1: decisions a little bit further in advance. He doesn't like 439 00:18:32,960 --> 00:18:35,679 Speaker 1: that added stress on a round of Shield cricket. But 440 00:18:36,840 --> 00:18:39,479 Speaker 1: you can't ignore Foreman that will be the most recent 441 00:18:39,640 --> 00:18:43,000 Speaker 1: form going into the Shield game. It's like we're trying 442 00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:44,560 Speaker 1: to pick a Melbourne Cup winner at the moment. You've 443 00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:47,520 Speaker 1: got to look at the most recent race. If Jake 444 00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:50,919 Speaker 1: Weatherwild gets a hundred for Tasmania this week Tasmania are 445 00:18:50,920 --> 00:18:53,720 Speaker 1: playing in Hobart against South Australia, especially if it's a 446 00:18:53,720 --> 00:18:58,679 Speaker 1: tricky deck that does so much for his case, and 447 00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:01,320 Speaker 1: if he's not in the squad name this week, I 448 00:19:01,320 --> 00:19:03,439 Speaker 1: think that's a mistake. I think Australia should they should 449 00:19:03,520 --> 00:19:06,399 Speaker 1: name a big squad this week and give themselves lots 450 00:19:06,400 --> 00:19:07,520 Speaker 1: of options going at Perth. 451 00:19:07,840 --> 00:19:10,240 Speaker 3: I suspect they will have an idea of the National 452 00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:12,560 Speaker 3: selectors of what their top six will be or what 453 00:19:12,560 --> 00:19:15,240 Speaker 3: there eleven will be. The one caveat I think will 454 00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:18,520 Speaker 3: be Cameron Green. I think him bowling and him batting, 455 00:19:18,720 --> 00:19:20,960 Speaker 3: him getting overs on the belt, that will go a 456 00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:24,679 Speaker 3: long way in determining that lineup, because if Green is 457 00:19:24,680 --> 00:19:26,600 Speaker 3: not fit as a bowler, if he cannot serve as 458 00:19:26,600 --> 00:19:29,520 Speaker 3: an all rounder, it feels like bo Webster's a must. 459 00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:31,640 Speaker 3: Then it feels like he's a lock, and that will 460 00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:33,359 Speaker 3: go a long way in Webster's case of playing. 461 00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:35,720 Speaker 2: And then obviously the order will jig around that. 462 00:19:35,960 --> 00:19:37,880 Speaker 3: So while as you said, there will be a big 463 00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:40,399 Speaker 3: Ashes squad, there'll probably should be a special so opener 464 00:19:40,440 --> 00:19:42,520 Speaker 3: in there, whether that's a Renshaw or a Weather or all. 465 00:19:43,359 --> 00:19:46,080 Speaker 3: I think that final eleven will come down so much 466 00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:49,720 Speaker 3: to Green. He feels like the final determining factor in 467 00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:52,160 Speaker 3: what team will come up against England in Perth. 468 00:19:52,280 --> 00:19:53,600 Speaker 2: So wait and see. 469 00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:56,840 Speaker 3: We just want to see Green rolling in bowling, bounces, 470 00:19:57,359 --> 00:19:59,480 Speaker 3: swinging the ball. We just want to see him fit 471 00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:01,480 Speaker 3: because if feels like such a frustrating start to his 472 00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:03,679 Speaker 3: career and every time he seems to come back, a 473 00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:04,719 Speaker 3: little niggle pops up. 474 00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:06,879 Speaker 2: He's ruled out of the One Day series. It's been 475 00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:07,760 Speaker 2: a frustrating time. 476 00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:10,760 Speaker 3: If he can be fit, he's in there and I 477 00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:12,840 Speaker 3: think the starting even feels pretty clear. 478 00:20:13,160 --> 00:20:15,560 Speaker 1: We will get our first look at that wa taking 479 00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:19,360 Speaker 1: on Queensland at the Whacker. The other two matches Tasmania 480 00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:21,879 Speaker 1: against South Australian Hobart and then the big one, New 481 00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:25,040 Speaker 1: South Wales in Victoria at the SCG.
