Today marks nine years since Australian cricket's saddest day, when Phillip Hughes left us just three days short of his 26th birthday - remaining 63 not out forever. ❤️

"He kisses the crest, he salutes the crowd with his helmet aloft, his bat aloft, his family there!" Dave Warner became the 10th player to score a ton in their 100th Test in emotional scenes at the MCG today!

It's tradition at Triple M Cricket to let Tubby Taylor call any hat-trick balls that come up when he's on commentary. This is how he called Mir Hamza's effort to Mitch Marsh after cleaning up David Warner and Travis Head 👇

“Mitchell Starc’s career batting average has jumped to 23.13, but in the last three years - since the start of 2019 - it’s 37.18. That’s .01 ahead of Indian skipper Virat Kohli.” -

A genius, a legend, a rascal, a showman, an entertainer, the first man to 600 and 700 Test wickets, the greatest leg spinner to ever live. All of these things describe Shane Warne. What a record he had, and what a legacy he leaves. Long live the king. 💔
Our first Boxing Day without the great Shane Keith Warne 💔 Fans rocking up on day one are being encouraged to bring a floppy hat and wear zinc to pay tribute to the great man.
Steve Smith has revealed that he used Ian Chappell's suggestion that he would struggle to bounce back from his ban as motivation ahead of his match-winning performance in the last Ashes.
Australian cricket has lost a legend, with Rod Marsh passing away at the age of 74. Marsh debuted to the derisory nickname Iron Gloves in 1970, but left in 1984 holding the record for dismissals - 355 - as his partnership with Dennis Lillee became legendary. Vale Bacchus. 🧤
Aaron Finch has officially retired from all international cricket. He goes out as T20 World Cup winning skipper, one of Australia's most destructive white ball batters ever, and an all-time T20 great. Go well Finchy 👏
"He's made a 200 for the ages, and he's nearly snapped in half Bruce Reid style!" Howie, Merv and Hads were loving Dave Warner's double ton - and cramped up celebration!

As it stands Tim Paine currently has the second highest Test batting average of any Australian wicketkeeper. Only Adam Gilchrist averages more 🏏 (minimum 30 Tests as wicketkeeper)
“HE’S SMASHED INTO THE STUMPS AND THAT’S 300 FOR MITCHELL STARC! HE’S NOW A LEGEND!” Mitch Starc became the seventh Aussie to take 300 Test wickets just before lunch!
