I mean is anyone betting against the Aus to win the 2019 world cup? Australia at least for next 2 world cups will always be one of the favorites. Same thing with West Indies being favorite for 2020 world cups for next year regardless of what ever group of players they pick. It is their kind of cricket. Link to comment

The reason they get picked in IPL is after IPL team owners end up buying the hype from overseas after few performances, like picking Ronchi etc in the past. Stoinis too got oicked like that so will many in future. Link to comment

List A average of just 29 and FC average of 37. He could have become a better player and improved recently but general perception about him is right among people. He looks ordinary. I was surprised when he was first picked in IPL because I saw him in BBL 2015 and he looked ordinary or nothing special. tweaker 1 Link to comment

Also, Australian domestic cricket level is as close to the international level as you can get. tweaker 1 Link to comment

Regardless of how good Aussie domestic is, he is hardly any bowler. He's just batting wel now, and hence general perception among many about him is correct that he has been ordinary. This is sort of his purple patch with batting. He has gotten the momentum and can improve on his scores, but he is not a decent all rounder by any means. Link to comment

He has been pretty good in T20s with the ball. Did very well in IPL too with his variations. Link to comment

BeautifulGame Posted February 2, 2017 Share Posted February 2, 2017 not in LOIs In LOI ,most players look at home in international cricket in familiar conditions.Not just Aussies though. Link to comment
Cricketics Posted September 21, 2017 Author Share Posted September 21, 2017 Surely not ordinary as people thought him to be. The guy bats smarts and waits for the opprtunities. Was looking good today. We have to be wary of this guy in the coming games. He looks in good touch and almost took his team him today. Link to comment
SK_IH Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 looks pretty ordinary against spinners this guy Link to comment
