THis is getting ridiculas. Bichel once agian comes to the rescue and saves QLD from a bad total.

What did I tell you all.. NSW and Bracken along with Nichelson do the damage again... Queensland are without their 2 strike weapons in Symonds and Hayden.. and NSW are a super side...

We have one thing many sides don't have and that is Depth.. congrats to the smart cookies who decided to buy Nichelson and Katich from WA.. stroke of genius...

Go TREVOR.. another namesake doing us proud.. and GO NSW SPEEDBLITZ BLUES..

[Teegy]

Not much depth. you have almost half of your perfered side lining up. only players missing are Lee and McGrath

[Titanium_BD1103]

LOL actually that is true.. but take this into account..

We have Corey Richards, Doug Bollinger, Jason Krejza and Ed Cowan all in Sydney Grade Cricket.. they would get a run with any other State side.. now that is depth...

[Teegy]

Not sure about getting a run in any team but all quality players. QLD also have alot of depth but they are not performing ATM.

[Titanium_BD1103]

Now that is true.. you see these players are playing superbly in Sydney Grade.. Cowan made a century last week or the week before from memory.. his whole Uni side could get a run if need be.. except for Greg Matthews- he is too old LOL..

I never said QLD didn't have depth.. I meant NSW had useful depth.. I agree Queensland have stacks of depth.. but none are performing.. I reckon Mitchell Johnson could be a superstar of the future.. but he seems a bit lost ATM.. perhaps needs some guidance..

[Teegy]

With Kaspa and Bichel their i think he will get alot of guidance.

Atleast Bich took one of the strike weapons early

[Ipswich Fan]

The match is a long way from being over, another couple of wickets in the morning & we'll see a tussle for first innings points.

[Titanium_BD1103]

NSW are steadily catching the Queensland total.. Clarke is in now... he is very slowly getting away... hopefully he can score a big score and make the selectors have more of a headache..

Q: What does Michael Clarke do the innings after being dropped for Australia
A: CREATES A BIG HEADACHE FOR SELECTORS by scoring 100..as I knew he could...GO MATE GO..

Yep another great day for NSW Cricket as Michael Clarke score 107 and NSW move past Queensland's first innings total.. I think sadly it will be a draw though unless Queensland capitulates.. as there are only 121 overs left of this match..

Great reply Michael Clark!!!

What a away to respond to an axing. Also a good way to show there is nothing wrong with his technique - Also against a couple of bowlers who people were still pushing for Aus selection.
