The Grade Cricketer

Australia wins and the world gives it crickets. Renshaw's 272 runs are just paper and the deepest aims of Australian cricket are to restore the warm hues of our childhood.

Credit where it's due or is Bailey kissed on the d**k? Matthew Renshaw is the greatest middle order batter has ever seen. Endless depth of Australian quicks. Can we expect to see more out of South Africa in the 2nd test or will this series fizzle out to a 3-0 win for Australia. Alex Malcolm joins the show to break down what actually happened in Durban.

AUSTRALIA WIN. AUSTRALIA WIN. AUSTRALIA WIN. And the thanks need to go to the former players who gave these guys the shove they needed to actually pull their socks up and give a damn for once!!!

The day moved slow then fast thanks to career-best figures from Josh Hazlewood as he got the ball to reverse…somehow…in South Africa. We’re not asking any questions there.

Who’s winning? Sure, we don’t ask that in Test cricket. But if we were to ask it, which we are, then Australia is winning. 

For the first time since the early 2000s, Australia’s batting looks good. Matt Renshaw looks good, he knows how to play the spinners and he knows how to get past 50. We don’t want to jinx it at all, but with 6 wickets Australia are definitely winning this Test match and the series and everything forever.

Don’t listen to what others are saying and don’t look at the lead of 139 runs at the end of Day 3. Australia are unders are we are filthy.

Are South Africa’s batters feeling the effects of not playing Test cricket in about 120 months?

It’s Renshaw, it’s always been Renshaw but especially now with a Daddy hundred on foreign soil to turn the match around. So he’ll go ahead and join the back of the queue to bat at 5 for Australia. Doesn’t matter, Mitch Marsh is probably going to take everyone’s spot by the end of the series anyway.

It’s the same game we’ve watched from Australia in the last 10 years, we’re completely unhappy with the scoreline and we still wholeheartedly believe that Australia will take a three-figure first innings lead.

Meanwhile, Bailey bamboozles us with his latest Magic Eye trick. Maybe there's something there to see, we don't see it, but we've never been good with these things.

The sandpaper reduxes are running dry and it's almost time for Australia to return to South Africa for the first time since 2018. Australian's are never satisfied so even a 3-0 win may seem like a failure.  Marnus tons up in a 'low intensity' warm up game, Martin Guptill is playing Sydney test cricket and miraculously India and Pakistan are in the same group again for the ODI World Cup.

Main podcast out tomorrow. In the meantime we sit down with Cricket Victoria CEO Nick Cummins to break down why they’re selling the Renegades, what fans stand to gain or lose, the threat of monopoly ownership, the changing economics of international and T20 cricket and what this all means for domestic cricket in Victoria.
