They could play less limited over cricket too. They are encouraged to play the ball hard from the bowlers hand.

Is Steven Smith an FTB?

He has scored runs in every country he has batted in.

Bye bye Voges, it was nice seeing you, have fun watching the 5th test from the stands. Now Broad has to give Clarke a short ball that finally snaps his back, hopefully the stump mics catch the crack.

Master plan by Australia here. 1 day test match means tens of thousands of Englishmen lose ticket money. Proper good cricket.

I am self quoting this right now I'm typing between the first and second ball because I am certain Clarke is about to get out this very next ball. Now my finger is on the post button. Oh he hit a four instead for some dumb reason.

I think this is actually a good plan by the Australians. They obviously wanted to bowl first, so now they're going to do whatever it takes to make sure they get to bowl in the best conditions for it.

I think his current technique is going to be a problem in England and he should consider batting a bit more normal. Is he a FTB though ? I don't think so. He certainly can be squared up though

Let me start off with a basket of chips. Then move on to the pollo asado taco.
Plot twist - Watto actually held the team together by giving them all a standard to aim for to be better than. This is ... this is ... interesting?
