Select Agar as a batsman :P

[Jukes]

Let's be honest. I'll give him another test before completely bagging him but Agar is not very good. Bowls either half track pies or just down leg.

Make's Doherty's average (75-odd) look good!

Bring back Lyon imo. Maybe play/train Agar as a specialist batsman who is a more than capable bowler, like Rooty.

Why hasn't Bollinger had a test run in a few years? Bowled mid-20s which was very nice.

Because he's an even bigger flog than Watto.  :P

Take it back! :P

Any cricketer that can give a straight no to a bunch of kids begging for an autograph is a dead set flog. That said, last time I went to the cricket, Watto didn't give us a wave. :P

Agreed! Lyon is sooooooo much better. Agar can't bowl! Not to mention Lyon took 9fa in his last test match...

[its me lads]

Yeah bring back Gazza! There was nothing wrong with Lyon, just needed to slow it down a bit more at times. Not a useless batter either, can dig in and stay there.

hahaha  ;D

The reason why poor old Watto didnt wave is because for some reason everyone hates him so if you call out his name he thinks you'll abuse him like everyone else. He wouldnt be able to trust anyone  :P

He wastes reviews, is selfish, also arrogant... There are probably more reasons people dislike the man.  ;D

And for the record, our whole section of the crowd was yelling "Give us a wave, Watto!" But I guess he would take offense to simpletons like us asking somebody of his status for a wave. :P

Yeah Lyon isn't great but at the moment he is a better option than agar, hopefully agar develops quickly and surpasses him soon.

Maxy ended up with 155 not out before they declared.

Another name to note is Josh Hazlewood who 1/19 off 9 overs.
