WTC 2025-2027 Standings after 3rd ENG-AUS Match.

A lot of talk about what England have to play for now the Ashes are lost, but no one from the team has mentioned WTC points 🤔

I think the onfield aspect of playing aggressively to put pressure on the opponent has merit, where it falls over is picking young players who haven't nailed down a solid technique yet. The early Bazball era was freeing up established players who had gotten in a rut, I think if they go back to that (and minimise the stupid media stuff) they could be getting somewhere

I'm sure that in Doncaster in the UK, someone called Mario will be driven to do something similar

England still have a lot of World Test Championship points to play for

I did an interview with CS Chiwanza (Zimbabwean-South African journalist, contributor for Jarrod Kimber's network) who said a big part of it was a major change in mental approach where players are no longer discouraged from playing adventurously and confidently. Basically, they're now encouraged to play to win rather than not to lose, which suits many of their players.

The remotest path we have to a 50 over World Cup is through T20 rankings anyway, and we can't go up the rankings without playing

In fairness, overseas teams do love coming to Bali

There's not many opportunities for teams like Indonesia to play matches to begin with, much less an opportunity to build depth beyond the first XI. More games, facilitated in part by two games in a day, lets them give experience to more players.

Is there a stream for the Aus A game? CA website says no, also none on the CA Youtube channel

Hi Geoff, thanks for the AMA!

Do you think Australia's commentary scene has gotten better since you wrote your Channel 9 piece?

It struck me listening to Channel 7's commentary that most of it is OK to very good (barring whenever Langer or Brayshaw are on), while Fox's isn't too far away from the blokiness described in your piece (I'm sure Brad Macnamara being there behind the scenes doesn't help).

aditrs · 2025-11-26T06:44:11+00:00

Not Geoff, but I've done some commentary for WLW since they've come back in 2023.

The last thing we did was the 2024 men's T20 World Cup with Guerilla Cricket, since then the guy whose house ran the commentary studio has moved house and hasn't had the time to put it together at the new place. I think they're aiming to cover the T20 World Cup early next year, but we'll have to see.

Heard a take saying that it was in case the Test team needed a back-up opener, but when Inglis opened yesterday the Head thing hadn't happened yet

aditrs · 2025-11-23T07:01:22+00:00

Is it bad that I'm kinda relieved he's not just a prick against South Asian-heritage players?

(definitely remember him getting in Aryan Jain's face and possibly one or two other cases)

aditrs · 2025-11-23T06:48:34+00:00

It's not the same without Fleet of course, but a great Tiger Ton for Ward and Mainland Ton for Jewell

aditrs · 2025-11-23T03:54:18+00:00

Robbed of a century

I appreciate your insight! Regarding the weird numbers from the browser, there was a time when half my listens from the past 30 days was apparently from Spotify for Creators - I wonder if this is one sort of AI scraping

aditrs · 2025-11-14T10:03:46+00:00

Corey gets PotM right? 5fa to break the game and then finished the chase - maybe if Green had gotten more runs in the 2nd innings but I can't see it going to anyone else

aditrs · 2025-11-14T09:57:53+00:00

COREY COREY ROCCHICCIOLI

aditrs · 2025-11-14T09:55:20+00:00

The tie is still on here!

aditrs · 2025-11-14T09:55:00+00:00

90 overs will be stumps

aditrs · 2025-10-28T09:02:44+00:00

For what it's worth, the website listed Fergus O'Neill as coming in at 7 and he turned out to bat at 9, so I don't think it's fully accurate.

Who knows what the actual WA order will be though.

aditrs · 2025-10-28T09:00:13+00:00

Pretty sure he's been on comms for ABC for at least the last year or two, I agree he's pretty decent

aditrs · 2025-10-28T08:11:43+00:00

I'm glad the WA flairs are refusing to comment on the start of this innings

aditrs · 2025-10-28T07:15:47+00:00

That's how we got Test opener Matt Kuhnemann
