Something weird happened in a state game today.
Western Australia played Tasmania in Hobart (thats not the weird part).
By stumps on day 3 (of a 4 day match) the Western Warriors were 310 runs in front.
Obviously a declaration after some heavy hitting in the first hour or so was going to follow.
Instead the Warriors batted for another 50 overs declaring at tea, pretty much draining the game of life.
Now if you had a wrist spinner in your side, and he was essentially playing for his spot in the first test, wouldn’t you give him a crack at a team needing 350 on the last day of a pitch that generally wrist spinners like?
Who gives themselves one session to bowl a team out?
Then when Western Australia get out into the field, for their one session, Brad Hogg doesn’t even bowl one over.
Not one, Hussey bowled two, but Hogg, none.
On top of that, the whisper around the campfire is that Hogg has a finger infection.
If Western Australia had won, they would have been two points off top position.
So, um, what the fu(c)k is going on?
If he is injured, why has this not made the news yet?
Are they keeping him with a good average so he is more likely to be picked?
Have Tom Moody and Adam Voges started taking LSD?
Is this a conspiracy against Cricket with balls own Bryce McGain?
I need answers people.
the games some ppl play buy not actually ‘playing’…
It’s odd.
what part???
Its true he is injured. Not sure why baggygreen or cricket.com.au didn’t mention it. But i found this.
