Oliver Peake

Mm

... whether it's in Victor Trumper's time or it's Ollie Peake's time, has changed.

But the game that everyone plays on the weekend hasn't changed, and that's...

I think that's what we have to protect.

Again, Marsh 56 off 42, Head 24, Cooper Connolly 23.

The big thing here, Ollie Peake was given a game and he batted at four and made 48 off 53 balls.

Looked composed, uh, and I think that was one of the best things, uh, that I've seen that the selectors decided to give him a run and give him a chance in the middle order rather than batting at seven and eight where he has in pr- all his previous one-day games for Australia.

Alex Carey made 74.

I just reckon he adds so much to a club as he's done in Brisbane.

And I was just wondering when the Australian cricket team, your thoughts, when they're going to blood an extra batsman, a young guy like Peake or Callaway or Yeah,

so firstly on the Chris Fagan thing, I think it's one of those things, Paul, that he'll be good for any club.

And it's his care and his calming influence as much as the premierships that he's won that he's just a sensible person you want in your football club that will care for anyone.

Yeah.

What do you say to the younger players that have missed out? I mean, there's no room for Callaway, who hasn't been scoring the runs he was scoring 12 months ago.

Ollie Peake's obviously done pretty well, in fact, very well in his opportunities in white ball cricket for Australia.

But even some of the other younger players around the country that have been overlooked for two left field choices.

Um, but no, they were just much more controlled today and gave themselves a little bit more time.

I mean, even though Ollie Peake was struggling a little bit about, against the pace of Gerald Coetzee, um, same with Cooper Connolly.

Um, he, Peake still managed to get himself to a decent score, 40, 40-odd.

Um, and then that sort of laid the platform for, for Carey, Green, Renshaw, um, and a little flourish from-
