Australian Cricket Season 2024-2025

So, congratulations to South Australia for winning the one day cup, must be their first bit of silverware a long time.....

Hopefully they will repeat that with winning the Sheffield Shield.

MrP's last winning one day cup was shown during highlights of the match on Saturday. The team has selected interstate players who are on the cusp of Test selection but still not made the grade permanently yet.

That's anyone who has more than two first class matches under their belt, isn't it?

I think one selection for the Test had none?

Dunno @Pushka I think Cooper Connolly had 3 or 4, but had played for AUS in white ball. Gone are the days when Shield runs/wickets were mandatory before consideration for test call up. Now it's not even a bonus or handy.

Still, horses for courses policy is fine by me, provided it's executed with some consistency. Which cannot be said for decisions based on form.
