Speaker 1: The Unplayable Podcast is proudly presented by Quantas, the official
Speaker 1: podcast partner and the official airline partner of Cricket Australia.
Speaker 1: Once again this season, Quantas is proud to be flying
Speaker 1: Astralia's cricketers as they take on the.
Speaker 2: World by another gripping day of Test cricket.
Speaker 1: Here at the Gabba, Australia hold a forty four run lead,
Speaker 1: They've got four wickets in hand and yeah, plenty to
Speaker 1: talk about from today's action at the Gabba. Joshnafinker here
Speaker 1: joined again by Louis Cameron and good news, lou this
Speaker 1: match is going into a third day.
Speaker 3: That is good news. I'd say we're probably going to
Speaker 3: go into a fourth day as well. Be surprised if
Speaker 3: it didn't get there, although who knows. With the pace
Speaker 3: that these games are played at frenetic pace. Wasn't like
Speaker 3: it has felt like ODII cricket the whole way through,
Speaker 3: you know, Day one day too. The way the tactics,
Speaker 3: I mean, it felt like you need the fielding restrictions
Speaker 3: on at some point because England had you know, four
Speaker 3: or five fielders in the deep shortball tactics. Glore drop
Speaker 3: catcher's glore for and sixers glow weird kind of cricket,
Speaker 3: pink ball cricket at the Gabba.
Speaker 1: It is, yeah, Australia's run rate for the innings so
Speaker 1: far five point one eight. They were going at six
Speaker 1: point one nine in that first session when Head and
Speaker 1: weather Roll and then Marnus lavish and we're going really well.
Speaker 1: But they've taken themselves to six for three hundred and
Speaker 1: seventy eight. Everybody got a start pretty much. There's three
Speaker 1: scores of fifty plus a couple in the forties and
Speaker 1: Alex Carey's now forty six not out. That stumps with
Speaker 1: Michael Niester on fifteen not out. Jake Weatherill said after
Speaker 1: the match that you know, I think the bating group
Speaker 1: were disappointed that none of them could go on and
Speaker 1: make that one hundred, but so far he's the top
Speaker 1: score with seventy two from seventy eight And wasn't he
Speaker 1: great to watch today?
Speaker 3: He was, he was fantastic. I mean, it does kind
Speaker 3: of tell the story a little bit of Australia in
Speaker 3: recent times. They're batting. They've been a very successful Test team.
Speaker 3: That should be the first thing we should say. The
Speaker 3: next thing I'd say is their batting has never been
Speaker 3: great in that period. They've always just done enough and
Speaker 3: they've had elked fast bowling and you know an elite
Speaker 3: spinner as well, who have just gone to work and
Speaker 3: got him out of got him out of trouble and
Speaker 3: and kind of won games for them. Again, we've got
Speaker 3: a good but not great batting day for Australia, especially
Speaker 3: given how poor England started with a ball. I thought
Speaker 3: they came back pretty well in the day, but here
Speaker 3: was a real chance for you know, one of whether
Speaker 3: all Lavishane Smith, particularly Green, you know, maybe even English
Speaker 3: to go on and make a big score. We can
Speaker 3: excuse Jake because he's playing in his second game and
Speaker 3: you know he's a really exciting prospect.
Speaker 2: And he got a pretty good ball to be fair.
Speaker 3: He's got a very good yeah, a very good ball
Speaker 3: and a guy who can just crank it up at
Speaker 3: his pads. So yeah, a bit to dissect him in
Speaker 3: terms of the batting. Do you want to start with Jake.
Speaker 1: Let's start with Jake. Before we get to that. Let
Speaker 1: you touch on England's bowling. Stuart Borld called it erratic,
Speaker 1: Ricky Ponto called it rubbish. So that it gives you
Speaker 1: as a lot about those two comments, that gives you
Speaker 1: a bit of an ind what was happening. There were short,
Speaker 1: wide things over pitch deliveries, and eventually England sort of
Speaker 1: got it right towards the end of the day. But
Speaker 1: in that first session especially, there were boundaries galore, and
Speaker 1: Jake weather Order especially cashed in that famous cut shot
Speaker 1: that he's well, he's come from the Travis Head school
Speaker 1: of cut shots, hasn't he so strong through that area?
Speaker 1: And then also a six with an uppercut over third man.
Speaker 1: He said to ABC after the game, it's the first
Speaker 1: time he's ever played a shot like that.
Speaker 2: Then it came off pretty well.
Speaker 3: Yeah it did. And I'd love to talk about Jake,
Speaker 3: but maybe starting with just England's bowling a bit of
Speaker 3: It's hard to tell if they mixed up their tactics
Speaker 3: or they mixed up their execution early because they're all
Speaker 3: over the shop early and even when they went to
Speaker 3: the short ball ploy it just I wish they went
Speaker 3: to very early. It just didn't really work for them.
Speaker 3: And then as their bowling got better in the day,
Speaker 3: their fielding got worse, So that was kind of a
Speaker 3: they could just never really get ahead of it. Interesting
Speaker 3: stat from kriek Viz that I saw doing the rounds
Speaker 3: England quicks. This was during the session so might need
Speaker 3: to be updated, but they'd taken three for thirty three
Speaker 3: at eleven with deliveries that would have hit the stumps
Speaker 3: and three for almost three hundred at ninety nine with
Speaker 3: deliveries that wouldn't have hit the stumps. I don't think
Speaker 3: it's quite as simple as you just bottle the stumps
Speaker 3: and that's how you get Test week. It's never that simple.
Speaker 3: If you did that, you'd go for a lot of runs.
Speaker 3: But I think they misread the conditions a little bit.
Speaker 3: And I think you're playing a double edged game in
Speaker 3: pink ball cricket here, because if you do bowl your
Speaker 3: normal stuff outside of stump, fourth, fifth stump, the old
Speaker 3: ball at the stumps, you probably can teams can score
Speaker 3: pretty quickly, and that's what a strategy did do off
Speaker 3: the bat, but you probably I think this pitch does
Speaker 3: have it quite a bit in it at certain times,
Speaker 3: and if you pitch it up, stand up the scene,
Speaker 3: you're a chance of nicking guys off and getting balls
Speaker 3: to dart back off the pitch. I mean Josh English,
Speaker 3: he got bowled by one from Ben Stokes just trying
Speaker 3: to look. That was in the sixty fourth over the game,
Speaker 3: so that's a sixty four overall ball. Albeit they did
Speaker 3: change the ball at one point, but it's an older ball,
Speaker 3: so there is some merit I think in just bowling
Speaker 3: some normal stuff. But whether all I mean Weather and Head,
Speaker 3: they've just kind of stumbled upon something pretty good. Now,
Speaker 3: Like we've seen two partnerships over seventy five in two
Speaker 3: innings in a row. The last time Australia had had
Speaker 3: that in Test cricket was when Warner was opening the batting.
Speaker 3: Australia have been crying out for an aggressive batter to
Speaker 3: bat with usban Kuaja and they've kind of stumbled across
Speaker 3: two openers who were aggressive. Neither of them are batting
Speaker 3: with Usbanquaja and kind of a funny spot there, but
Speaker 3: Jake was kind of the one who took the aggressive option.
Speaker 3: He was the aggressor and Travis was kind of really
Speaker 3: really struggling early to be honest, and just looks like
Speaker 3: they got a really good dynamic going. They go way
Speaker 3: back those two.
Speaker 1: Well, that's what I was going to ask you the
Speaker 1: synergy is there. How important do you think it is
Speaker 1: for opening partners. Obviously Hate and then Lang were super tight.
Speaker 1: Warner and Kowaja were super tight. Those two have been
Speaker 1: a couple of the most successful pairs Australia have had
Speaker 1: in a long time. Now, these two know each other
Speaker 1: that they go way back as well. Even I think
Speaker 1: to the school cricket day is lou So how important
Speaker 1: is it that to know your opening partner?
Speaker 2: World you reckon?
Speaker 3: That's right, when you're listening to this, you'll be able
Speaker 3: to read a piece on cricket dot Com that are you.
Speaker 3: That kind of leads with an anecdote about how the
Speaker 3: first time they played against each other was a school game.
Speaker 3: Jake made one hundred and twenty four and then Travis
Speaker 3: Head also made one hundred in the same game playing
Speaker 3: for Trinity against Prince Alfred College, so they go right back.
Speaker 3: Jake has spoken a lot about how much he admires
Speaker 3: Travis Head is a left handed batter who just kind
Speaker 3: of goes after it. Obviously, Trab's never been a red
Speaker 3: ball opener, but I think Jake has based his game
Speaker 3: a little bit around what Trapp does, albeit with some
Speaker 3: slightly moving parts. One of the most interesting things I
Speaker 3: thought from Jake whether it's press conference, was him talking about, yes,
Speaker 3: I'm an aggressive batterer and I like to score, and
Speaker 3: I know my scoring zones, but one of the most
Speaker 3: important things for me earlier is leaving the ball really
Speaker 3: well and defending, but defending well, but particularly leaving like
Speaker 3: he wants to when that ball is in a dangerous spot.
Speaker 3: He wants to be getting his bat right out of
Speaker 3: the way. So he felt like he did that really
Speaker 3: well today and you know, then he's ended up scoring
Speaker 3: what was a seventy two or seventy eight balls, So
Speaker 3: none of these guys have any issues with the scoring
Speaker 3: rate at any point.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's funny to say the leaving stuff we touched
Speaker 1: on Crawley yesterday, that was sort of an improvement for him.
Speaker 1: But then you've got Ben Duckett, who famously doesn't leave
Speaker 1: the ball. A lot of X great Test cricketers say
Speaker 1: you have to leave well in Australia to do well.
Speaker 1: I'm going to be watching Duckett very closely this series
Speaker 1: because if he sticks up with the no leaving sort
Speaker 1: of tactic, how will that affect his game going forward?
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think so, and I'd like to see the stats.
Speaker 4: I feel like I have seen him leave one or two.
Speaker 3: He's obviously or two. Yeah, it might literally be one
Speaker 3: or two.
Speaker 4: He does score a lot of runs behind third man
Speaker 4: through wit so he's a really good player.
Speaker 3: I would be surprised if he doesn't do well in
Speaker 3: this series. He didn't have a great day today. Did
Speaker 3: he two drop catches? And might be a segue I
Speaker 3: do want to talk about the rest of the Aussie batting,
Speaker 3: but it might be segue into England's pretty poor fielding today.
Speaker 1: Well, yes, before, what about if before we go to
Speaker 1: the bad fielding, let's start with the really good fielding. Yes,
Speaker 1: because I've got good It's a liquorland chisse of that
Speaker 1: moment for me, lou Will Jackson. Well, let's say with
Speaker 1: Manus slavishamee. Because Manus took a great catch to finish
Speaker 1: off the England innings, running in at deep backward square
Speaker 1: egg full stretch dive, we'd given a nine out of ten,
Speaker 1: I'd say maybe nine and a half out of ten.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it looked a bit weird from where we were sitting.
Speaker 3: We thought the ball had kind of dropped out because
Speaker 3: it was a bit of a double motion. Yeah.
Speaker 4: Out of ten, I'm giving it a oh an eight
Speaker 4: or eight and a half.
Speaker 2: Okay, Yeah, but I.
Speaker 1: Think Will Jackson outdid him in the final session to
Speaker 1: get rid of Steve Smith. It was a dive that
Speaker 1: he sort of put both his hands up, the ball
Speaker 1: only went into one and then to me it sort
Speaker 1: of looked like the dive you do over a ball
Speaker 1: when you're pretending you can get the ball but you
Speaker 1: can't actually get it.
Speaker 2: Well, Jack's got it.
Speaker 1: He put in the command roll and everybody was stunned
Speaker 1: because it didn't look like he was a chance and
Speaker 1: he's pulled off one of the great catches we've seen
Speaker 1: in recent times.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and you were watching Ben Stokes when he took it.
Speaker 3: What did he do?
Speaker 1: So Stokes was at mid on and Stokes was so
Speaker 1: wrapped with the catch that he threw his English calf
Speaker 1: in the air tossed it away as if he was
Speaker 1: graduating from aischel or something. So that was great to
Speaker 1: see that Stokes was so happy for his mate. But
Speaker 1: that was a catch. It I could just watch on
Speaker 1: replay again and again.
Speaker 3: Yeah and again. This one had kind of happened right
Speaker 3: on the other side of the ground, And at first
Speaker 3: I thought he'd taken it like backhand panther with his
Speaker 3: left hand, because that was kind of the hand that
Speaker 3: we could kind of see doing the moving, But actually
Speaker 3: it was his it was his right hand. Spectacular moment,
Speaker 3: and it's you know, it's about the only good fielding
Speaker 3: bit from England today because yeah, they had that a shocker,
Speaker 3: really catching. Do you want me to go through it
Speaker 3: blow by blow?
Speaker 1: Well, let's do it. Yeah, let's do five catches I
Speaker 1: think overall, wasn't it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, five catches So Travis head on three by Jamie Smith.
Speaker 3: That was probably the easiest of the day. It only
Speaker 3: cost some thirty runs in the end, but that was
Speaker 3: a real sitter for the English wiki keeper. Carry first
Speaker 3: ball by Duckett, I mean that was pretty simple too.
Speaker 3: Duckett did have to kind of dive forward and that
Speaker 3: looked like maybe one where he didn't pick it up
Speaker 3: quite as quickly as you would have with a red ball,
Speaker 3: but that came in a really good, brightened castpell he
Speaker 3: bounced back really well from a lot of tap earlier.
Speaker 3: He took two wickets in the over that might have
Speaker 3: been a third. Duckett then dropped English again on twenty one,
Speaker 3: cast dropped Nissa on six when he was fielding it
Speaker 3: at mid wicket, and then Joe dropped Carry on twenty
Speaker 3: five when he was standing way too wide at first
Speaker 3: slip off Carry the left hander with Atkinson bowling around
Speaker 3: the wicket. Sometimes guys right arms bowling around the wicket
Speaker 3: to lefties can kind of throw your slip squad. I
Speaker 3: don't quite know where to stand, but Joe wasn't standing
Speaker 3: in the right spot.
Speaker 1: That didn't look like the ball raced away for four.
Speaker 1: Both Joe Root and then Jake weather Or sit after
Speaker 1: the game that it is tough to see the ball here.
Speaker 1: We've got these iconic multicolored seats that we're sitting on,
Speaker 1: of course, plus the crowd, plus the pink ball which
Speaker 1: they're not used to playing with, plus the lights. I mean,
Speaker 1: it is a tough situation. But Stro's record fielding under
Speaker 1: lights with the ball has been pretty strong, i'd say,
Speaker 1: across the years. England, I guess it's an unusual situation
Speaker 1: for them.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it is.
Speaker 3: It's a good point. I'd get the sense, just you know,
Speaker 3: thinking back, I don't think the Aussie has got quite
Speaker 3: as many square the wicket catchers, whereas the England just
Speaker 3: seemed to get a lot today. Joe Route had a
Speaker 3: really good, like any passion defense, I would say, of
Speaker 3: their preparation. He said that, you know, they've done five
Speaker 3: days of training. They field in the twilight, they field
Speaker 3: in the day, they field it at night, they caught
Speaker 3: in different positions and ultimately it's just quite difficult. And
Speaker 3: even Jack Weather will acknowledge it when when he got
Speaker 3: asked about it. You know, you go back to the
Speaker 3: pink ball game. I know it's a boring subject, but
Speaker 3: the promise is eleven game. Could some of those guys
Speaker 3: have gone and played in a game where and would
Speaker 3: that have helped? Maybe not, because you're playing at a
Speaker 3: different ground, certainly not as hot. They probably would have
Speaker 3: been wearing jumpers in Canberra, and you know, I think
Speaker 3: fielding in the heat here is really different, so I'm
Speaker 3: sure it would have made that much of a difference.
Speaker 1: Yeah, But I mean, at the end of the day,
Speaker 1: we said it on day one how good Australia's fielding was,
Speaker 1: both with the runner and the catches, and then we're
Speaker 1: saying how bad England was today. So will it be
Speaker 1: a key component I mean, I guess with the other
Speaker 1: one with the Jacks catch, when you're weighing up whether
Speaker 1: to play him or sheld, l B is not taking
Speaker 1: that catch, is he? Jacks is a fast, superior fielder
Speaker 1: and batter, so he offers a lot. We haven't seen
Speaker 1: him bolve, just the one over which I think when
Speaker 1: for thirteen runs or something, But certainly I think he
Speaker 1: brings more to the table than their other off spinner.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and it probably you know, having the extra batting
Speaker 3: probably helps and a better fielder. I feel it's really
Speaker 3: harsh on Shold this year. I feel like the last
Speaker 3: memory I have of him fielding was him fielding with
Speaker 3: a broken finger at what I come of which ground,
Speaker 3: But it was during that India series early this year,
Speaker 3: and that guy, just like, you know, absolutely fair play
Speaker 3: to him. I showed so much courage bowling and batting
Speaker 3: and fielding through a really badly fractured finger. I'd love
Speaker 3: to see child be Sheer play a game in this series.
Speaker 2: But you're be fair, aren't you.
Speaker 3: I just would like to see him. I think I
Speaker 3: really like how they've just stuck with one spinner, a
Speaker 3: little bit like Zach Crawley in some senses they've gone,
Speaker 3: we actually rate you, we think you're the best player.
Speaker 3: This is the tool we want to get you too,
Speaker 3: and we're going to play you through thick and thin Stokes.
Speaker 3: I think from what I've seen is captain him really
Speaker 3: well and really tried to give him some confidence in
Speaker 3: the games I've seen. I didn't expect to be going
Speaker 3: on a one minute show year Randy or Josh, but
Speaker 3: but here we are. But yeah, then you kind of
Speaker 3: do all that work and then you don't pick him.
Speaker 3: I can understand the reasons, but I'd still like to
Speaker 3: see him at some point.
Speaker 1: One player who we did see for the first time
Speaker 1: this match was Steve smith with the Ice Dreams. They
Speaker 1: made his debut with the Shivner own Chanderpaul style glare
Speaker 1: reduction devices underneath it his eyes and worked pretty well
Speaker 1: from sixty one off eighty five.
Speaker 2: Looked pretty much untroubled.
Speaker 1: Until he's wicket, which was that Will Jack's catch. I
Speaker 1: think they might be here to stay for the pink ball,
Speaker 1: much as I'd say with Smithy.
Speaker 4: Yeah, well, I mean, did Shitneron wear them in day
Speaker 4: test matches or did he only wear them in day
Speaker 4: night odi question? Yeah, not sure, Yeah, I'd like to
Speaker 4: see him wear them all the time. It looks cool,
Speaker 4: but it looks really cool. Was he wearing them correctly?
Speaker 3: Do we know?
Speaker 2: Well? He has previously warm an upside down? Hasn't he but.
Speaker 3: Upside down or like inside out? What was? Why does
Speaker 3: it matter which? Because they're kind of just like square strips.
Speaker 1: I don't know, maybe they curve or something. I assume
Speaker 1: if they're back to front, the sticky side would be
Speaker 1: on one side.
Speaker 3: That would make them more glary and they fall off.
Speaker 1: I did manage to have a quick chat to Cameron
Speaker 1: Green in the leading to the game and I just said, look,
Speaker 1: where are your eyes strips? So you're going to wear
Speaker 1: them as well? And he said, mate to pull them
Speaker 1: off here they have to have ten thousand test runs
Speaker 1: or via cool West Indian.
Speaker 2: Fair play to Cam. I don't think we'll see him
Speaker 2: with them on this series.
Speaker 3: A good segue into Cam because he's someone who I
Speaker 3: think could make ten thousand test runs and gee, he
Speaker 3: looked like a million bucks when he was batting.
Speaker 2: Today and then some of those drives.
Speaker 3: Oh sumptuous and England came in with the planned I
Speaker 3: don't know if we saw that one in the first Test.
Speaker 3: I don't if he battered for long enough to have
Speaker 3: seen it, but two catching covers look like they wanted
Speaker 3: to tempt him outside of stump to drive on the
Speaker 3: up through the off side. There are a couple of
Speaker 3: times where he just smoked the ball straight through him
Speaker 3: through the two short covers and hadn't put a foot
Speaker 3: wrong and backing away from a broaden cast ball Cast
Speaker 3: kind of bluffed in m suppose after a lot of
Speaker 3: balls where he followed him with some short stuff and
Speaker 3: stumps were everywhere, so Cam did score a lot of
Speaker 3: runs doing exactly what he had done. I think it's
Speaker 3: probably the first thing which point out casts especially, but
Speaker 3: maybe some of their other bowlers too, were just going
Speaker 3: it in with short balls and there was no it
Speaker 3: was I think it was a mid off, but no
Speaker 3: one else in front of point on the off side,
Speaker 3: so he was just backing away and trying to flame
Speaker 3: through a cover. He got a couple of boundaries that way,
Speaker 3: and I reckon he might have even got one the
Speaker 3: ball or two before. And then third ball cast goes
Speaker 3: at the stumps. It was probably predictable that he was
Speaker 3: going to try at one point, and you know, it
Speaker 3: made him look silly like and when you're you end
Speaker 3: up like that, so a shame he went out like
Speaker 3: that like people are going to go come on like.
Speaker 3: I mean it's not just him like, but that whole
Speaker 3: top order. It's like there was some big runs to
Speaker 3: be had today and they could have been in a
Speaker 3: position where you know, instead of six for are we
Speaker 3: six for or seven for six for three seven eight stumps?
Speaker 3: You know, you could be three or four for four
Speaker 3: hundred and looking at making six hundred. You then get
Speaker 3: a big shot at batting during the day tomorrow against
Speaker 3: really tired bowlers and you could you could win this
Speaker 3: thing by knittings. They're ahead in the game, but England
Speaker 3: aren't out of it by any stretch.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it touched on a cast. It was a good
Speaker 1: comeback for him. We were checking the stats throughout that inning.
Speaker 1: He was on track to become the most expensive English.
Speaker 2: Test bowler ever. He was going at over eights.
Speaker 1: But to be fair to him, he came back with
Speaker 1: Stokes in an hour long tandem sort of spell. They
Speaker 1: bottle eleven overs together and they took three forty seven,
Speaker 1: So you know that's sort of wrestled England back into
Speaker 1: the game. We've seen Stokes do it with the ball
Speaker 1: quite a bit. But lude my question to you is,
Speaker 1: twenty overs under the belf for Joffra Archer doesn't look
Speaker 1: like he's at one hundred percent out there at the
Speaker 1: end of the day at least. How do you think
Speaker 1: this is going to affect him for the rest of
Speaker 1: the series.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, you could really see him starting spells
Speaker 3: today and he was really sore coming back into that
Speaker 3: night session. You know, his pace was in the one
Speaker 3: twenties and you could see it's just a struggle to
Speaker 3: get going. He as much as much work as he
Speaker 3: probably has done leading into the series, it just doesn't
Speaker 3: have the conditioning of a lot of long form behind
Speaker 3: long form cricket behind him over the last year or two.
Speaker 3: It's going to be a real challenge for him to
Speaker 3: get through through five tests. But yeah, on the positive
Speaker 3: side of things, cars So Yeah, I really rated how
Speaker 3: he just kept fronting up today. He's not choosing to
Speaker 3: bowl this short stuff like that. These are pre designated
Speaker 3: plans that they're they're using because of this pink ball
Speaker 3: just can't hold up on this gava surface. I think
Speaker 3: these first two days has proved that objectively, this is
Speaker 3: not the best place to play pink ball cricket. There
Speaker 3: aren't many places. There really is only one place that
Speaker 3: pink ball cricket has really worked. It's Adelaide Oval, and
Speaker 3: you know that is overwhelming the feedback you get from
Speaker 3: the players who play in it. So we're playing a
Speaker 3: bit of a weird ODI kind of test kind of thing.
Speaker 3: And yeah, so a guy like Bridon Cars just has
Speaker 3: to be the one to thump it into the turf.
Speaker 3: He came back really well, got those two wickets in
Speaker 3: the over. I thought Ben Stokes as well did a
Speaker 3: really good job, but he was all over the shop
Speaker 3: early on and then he bolts much better stuff later on.
Speaker 3: As you pointed out in that Yeah, not a game
Speaker 3: turning spell, but something that's kind of kept them in
Speaker 3: the contest.
Speaker 1: So Australia hold a forty four run lead heading into
Speaker 1: day three. I want to give you an update on
Speaker 1: the BBL good game, which we spoke about during the
Speaker 1: first Test.
Speaker 2: Today.
Speaker 1: My rarity score was thirty seven point seven pretty good.
Speaker 1: Not the best I've had, but.
Speaker 3: That's out of one hundred, right, I think it's out
Speaker 3: of one hundred.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so it could be a lot lower, but you
Speaker 1: want a lower score, not you want the lowest score
Speaker 1: you can get.
Speaker 2: You want to pick the most niche, the most rare, so.
Speaker 3: Zero would be like a perfect Jacoberfield or something.
Speaker 1: That's all right. So download the big Bash app. You
Speaker 1: can play this game in their game section. My most
Speaker 1: unique player today, lou Way.
Speaker 2: For this one, you had.
Speaker 1: To combine an Alex Carry teammate with an Adelaide Strikers player,
Speaker 1: so yeah, there's.
Speaker 2: A lot of overlap.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yep, yeah, I went with George Garton, the England
Speaker 1: all around.
Speaker 3: Okay, that's down there on the niche scale, all up there.
Speaker 2: On zero three percent, So pretty happy with that.
Speaker 3: Yeah right, yeah, right. I mean that's the beauty of
Speaker 3: the game is like that is objectively a very easy clue,
Speaker 3: but the multitude and the possibilities of what you could
Speaker 3: achieve with something very simple is very exciting. And I
Speaker 3: look forward to playing some Big Bash grid game because
Speaker 3: it is a lot of good fun. I'm absolutely chewed
Speaker 3: through it when they send me the demos for this,
Speaker 3: I did like ten in like an hour, and so
Speaker 3: I've just cooled off for a little bit. Yeah, I
Speaker 3: got an addictive personality, and I just know that if
Speaker 3: I started, I probably wouldn't get any work done this test.
Speaker 3: But as soon as his test wraps up, I'm going
