How many more chances can Marsh get. Anyone know what the count is now??
Most chances any test cricketer has had?

Be interesting, Anderson is an ordinary trundler here in Aus averaging nearly 40 and Broad very injury prone with only about 20 wickets at well over 30. Gut feeling is at home we should be way to good for England, hopefully it's some good hard competitive cricket.

Although correct don't forget England have Chris Woakes

Amazing to think that in 2015 Tim Paine was Banbury's overseas player in the HCPL.

Cook vs warner
stoneman vs Bancroft/Renshaw
Vince vs khawaja
root vs smith
malan vs Handscomb
bairstow vs Marsh
ali vs Paine
woakes vs Cummins
Overton vs starc
broad vs Hazlewood
anderson vs Lyon

Batting and bowling taken into consideration bold is winner on head to head in likely line ups, I have included Renshaw as I don’t think Bancroft will last the series

STONEMAN Av: 30 hs of 52 vs RENSHAW av: 36 hs of 184.
MALAN Av: 23 hs of 65 vs HANDSCOMB Av: 53 hs of 110.

What drugs are you taking and where can I get them?

When it comes to the Ashes averages mean nothing... it is all about who can handle the pressure and stand up and put in the real performances that win you the matches.... who has the kahunas!!

Example - 2013/14 last time we were in Oz, when we lost 5-0 - Johnson got all the headlines (and rightly so) but if Haddin had not stood up in the key moments and got runs (when the top 5 had got not much at all) when it mattered for Oz then that series would have been a lot closer.

I can't wait till next week!

I’m talking who I’d rather have in my side and who I think will have the better series,

And it was alcohol and any local supermarket/offie/pub?  ;)

On Stoneman vs Bancroft, I reckon Stoneman is unlikely to be made to look as much of a muppet as Bancroft is in the first clip of this video ;)

Anyone noticed Ben Stokes Instagram over last hour? Having a bowl off his full run up at Durham and labelling his blank bats up with redbull branding. A further sign of him going to ashes? Think it's a bit late to be involved with 1st test but likely 2nd.

Got a link to these? Can't seem to see them personally.
