Australia v West Indies

Aus about to get their test summer under way v the Windies in Perth (Aus to bat)
First time they have played the Windies since the start of 2016. In that time they've played England 15 times, India 12 times, and somewhat surprisingly Pakistan 10 times.
Aus team pretty much at expectation. Warner reportedly playing for his spot. But it's at home against a smaller opponent, so he is liable to average 50+.

oh, and Shiv Chanderpaul's boy will make his debut.
Apparently one of their young fast bowlers has a heap of promise as well

That innings won’t help.
Australia should think about recalling Adam Voges, he has a handy average of 542 against the Windies.
At any rate Oz should kill them although Searles has made an excellent start to his career and Roach and Holder are class.

lol fuck, the pre-christmas tradition
Aus win the toss in the first test, bat, score a million, and the other team already wants to go home.
this is just ugly as fuck. windies looking longingly at the Perth airport.
oh wait, i missed the best part of the tradition. Pre-game the local media talks up the wicket as being spicy (the old "green monster" was broken out on tuesday) and it so often works as teams get sucked in to bowling even if they win the toss.
Anyway, the windies suck. annoying cricket nerd scored 200. older annoying cricket autistic kid is closing in on it, and some guy named after a sex act will score a hundred soon.

Jesus Christ, just when I thought Steve Smith was a chance to only average in the high 50s like normal cricket legends not named Don Bradman he goes and gets an unbeaten double.
Average of 61.47 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NINE better than our boy KW.
What an annoyingly gifted and brilliant fuck he is.

The stance or the getting hit in the nuts?
