Speaker 1 (00:00):
This is not the news we wanted.

Speaker 2 (00:01):
No cricket fans. The latest Shoka Pat Cummins, Australia's star
pacement our skipper likely to miss the first Ashes Test
right here in Perth on November twenty one. It starts.
Got a back injury. That's the culprit and it's not
one of those ones. We can take a couple of
pan at all and have a massage and you're sweet,
you know what I mean. It's obviously stresses that aren't
coming good at the moment.

Speaker 1 (00:22):
It's not going to e d though. No, it won't
be there four days.

Speaker 2 (00:27):
England legend Michael Vaughan is already popping the champagne. He's
saying that's a massive gift for the Poms, the to
and froms. He reckons it's their golden chance now and
I think Langa said the same thing. We actually we
have got some Langer audio in a moment. But don't panic. Australia.
Here comes to the Sun in the form of Scottie Boland.
He's known as the fifth Beetle. So we're going to

(00:49):
use the Brietle analogies left right.

Speaker 3 (00:51):
And so's no pressure, Scottie, no pressure.

Speaker 2 (00:54):
Help I need some Bardy yet, get Scottie Boland made.
He's great, He's from Victoria, quite humble, but jeez can
bowl and he should be playing each week.

Speaker 1 (01:02):
The tricky bittle bit.

Speaker 2 (01:03):
If another fast bowler goes down, that's when they're in
strife because Rich Show is not quite ready and you
know some of the other guys are they good enough?

Speaker 1 (01:10):
So I don't have a deep list do it?

Speaker 3 (01:11):
No?

Speaker 1 (01:11):
Exactly right anyway, But.

Speaker 2 (01:13):
Here's what the great Justin Langer said about the situation
and the effect on the Assies.

Speaker 4 (01:18):
If you ask any batsman around the world who they'd
least like the face of the Australian fast bowling quartet,
they'd say Pack coming. So if he doesn't play, this
is a massive blow for Australian cricket. If Pat doesn't play,
the first Scotti Bolan will come in. But what it
will do is we'll keep the strain on the depth
of bowling talent in Australia. There's plenty around, but not

(01:40):
of the caliber of Pat com As, Mitch Stark, Josh
Hazewood and of course Scottie Bowland. So it's going to put.

Speaker 3 (01:46):
Pressure on pressure on Scottie Boland.

Speaker 1 (01:51):
Fifth Beetle.

Speaker 2 (01:52):
Yeah, the magical mystery too. It will be of Scottie Boland.
I love Jay Early the way he says massive. You
know some people say words. Well he goes he'll be massive,
you know. Benny Benny's the same meat as the same thing.
So there's a bit else going on as well. The
women played overnight. We should probably mention that one hundred
and seven run winner of the Pakistan in Colombo. A

(02:13):
monster effort by Beth Murney to get us across the line.

Speaker 1 (02:16):
Because it's not easy to play up there.

Speaker 2 (02:18):
No, and so we now sit on top of the
World Cup rankings in the women's side of things as well.
And just just a nod to everyone taking up cricket
this weekend because season gets underway.

Speaker 1 (02:29):
Local cricket yea footy. Footy is a distant memory. Yeah,
it's all about bat and ball now.

Speaker 2 (02:34):
In the getting some burnt you know, getting those sore
muscles going. There's Murdy mazanit as a cricket club that
I know.

Speaker 3 (02:41):
Will and Susie, our producer plays plays cricket. So we're
going to get the weekly bruise account that coming.

Speaker 2 (02:48):
In Bloody Bowl has hitting me in there yeah, so
we're sure that people.

Speaker 3 (02:52):
Good luck to everyone, and good luck to Scottie Boland
no pressure, mate, no pressure, and hopefully pack Come can
get himself mended as soon as as soon as possible.

Speaker 2 (03:03):
