Cricket Australia & the Australian Cricketers Association still at loggerheads?

England are playing some decent cricket right now, should be a great ashes series.

My money is on England, but it always is and I've lost a fair bit :lol:

In-principle agreement has been reached

Finally! :rolleyes:

Sounds like women's cricket has done exceptionally well.

Not a bad result for the men, either

Really looking forward to the One-Day International between Australia and England in Perth late January 2018
It will be the christening of our brand new stadium
I'll be there
A bit of history

Got to have a few quid on England today in Brisbane, especially as they will be chasing.

Barmy Army, we are mental, we are mad......... :)

Nice win for the lads in Brisbane and I think they can wrap up the series in Sydney.

My money is on England again and if the field first I'll put a few more quid on them.

I'm glad I didn't have a bet on the English lads today, they're having a shocker. Mind you the Aussies are bowling very well.

england v australia odi series starts today
poms expected to shine, aussies without their top two batsmen
mind you poms recently beaten by the scots for the first time
anyway looking forward to the clash

Scotland's coach Grant Bradburn is a kiwi
Odds firming to become the next Blackcaps coach

Well that didn't happen (yet)
In September 2018,,Bradburn was named as Pakistan's new fielding coach for 3 years ahead of 2018 Asia cup

Best chance for India to win a test series in Oz with Australia's two best batsmen still under suspension
Currently around $2.55

Got much better odds for India prior to start of day 2,,1st test,,following a good start by the Australian bowlers

& Virat Kohli,,Joe Root & David Warner

Steve Smith & David Warner have been selected for Australia’s one-day international squad
Warner's been showing some form, Smith still a bit rusty?

Agree Sands, Steven Smith's IPL average just 37.20 whilst Warner sits on top of the most runs table with an average 80.00. Smith doesn't appear to be fully focused imo.
