Great night watchman score there from Wags..I dont want to start thinking about 300 + yet, as that collapse always seems just around the corner when you least expect it, but a good partnership here would go a long way to making that happen

Nicholls is like a not as good Dave Warner
Great record at home, not so flash away.

To his credit every time the average dips under 40 he plays a big one and gets it over again.

at least he has turned up against a decent bowling attack as well, Im sure I've given him sh*t many times, but delivering against SA is a good result. Now if he could do that in SA, then that would be even better!

Steady on. Everyone knows he only performs at home.

Yep, Hayden and Gayle were magnificent players alright.

so the maligned Henry and Nicholls coming up big
Well done lads.
That's a pretty fucking good knock considering what he had to work with yesterday

Mitchell gone immediately after lunch. He has no business batting in the top 6 at test level.
I'll disagree on that one.
Looks to me easily capable of averaging 35ish at 5 or 6 over the next 3 or 4 years as we cross generations.
He's not really replacing mid-40s averaging Taylor or mid-30s averaging CdG. He's replacing the high-20s averaging Taylor and/or CdG of the last 2 years.
Only 'problem' is those are the cushier batting spots - which could be used to introduce debutants and youngsters.

Nicholls you useless fuck!

CdG in, I’m going to go out on a limb here and say this will either be entertaining or short lived.
probably both

Considering those are the only two ways he plays that’s not really going out on a limb
I’m glad you picked up on the sarcasm 😉
