  1. Farhat AM Farhat

    Will there be any?

    I think there should. To test out combinations and whatnot.
     
  2. Eds E Ames

    Would be pretty good.
     
  3. Boobidy BJ Gemmell

    Yeah, some tests would be great.
     
  4. nz0003 JR Denton

    Yeah would be good, we could use some I know that.
     
  5. Incey BC Jacobs

    Yeah Im all for it.
     
  6. Julian BJ Taylor

    I dare say everyone would be all for it.
     
  7. Lordeman JA Robertson

    Strongly against it, tbh.
     
  8. Speirz DG Speirs

    Not strongly against it, but you should be able to figure out your strongest side to begin with. Seeing as all the pitches are the same, 12/13 should just be for if someone's in poor form, and you aren't going to figure that out for one game.
     
  9. Lordeman JA Robertson

    Neither am I, tbh. I just thought it'd be funny to post it directly after Julian's post. :p

    I wouldn't mind a couple of trial matches though, mainly because there are only 7 group matches and there still are a lot of unknowns in regards to how players will perform.

    Trials FTW. Although if we could have three per team it'd be awesome, then you'd see who's in form, etc.
     
  11. Boobidy BJ Gemmell

    Bullshit, my teams needs some trials because I have a lot of options.


    6. Gilchrist
    7. White
    8. Noffke

    That is the area for me that is gonna cop some tinkering.
     
  12. Farny AP Farnsworth

    I don't actually want a trial, because I won't really have any options. Probably picking Boycott last.
     
  13. Baxter MJ Deane

    Wouldn't say 3 were needed.
    Perhaps one maybe two against teams from the other group. See how it goes.
     
  14. Farny AP Farnsworth

    Ok, cancel that. Just realised that I still only have one opener, and one pick left, so I can't afford to pick a veteran as team coach/mascot :(
     
  15. Boobidy BJ Gemmell

    I'm actually tempted to pick Bradman/Sobers.
     
  16. Farhat AM Farhat

    Pick Brett Gemmell.
     
  17. Boobidy BJ Gemmell

    I would be too tempted to play him.
     
  18. Farhat AM Farhat

    You wouldn't lose anything in picking him over Cameron White.
     
  19. Boobidy BJ Gemmell

    I'm not as good a batsman, but I'd outbowl him, TBH.



    But seriously White's bowling is being under-rated. He averages 38 and has take over 100 wickets IIRC. He is currently the best Australian spinner.
