Celebrate Jason's debut 12/358 with 12 minutes silence at 3:58pm today!
On 10 November 2009,Tasmanians are being urged to observe 12 minutes silence for the one year anniversary of Jason Krejza's incredible 12/358 on his test debut at Nagpur.
Concerned Tasmanians for Jason Krejza, a community action group born from the injustice of Krejza's axing from the test squad, is asking Tasmanians to stop what they are going and think about Krejza for just twelve minutes tomorrow.
"Jason Krejza's resilience and strength of character in the face of Andrew Hilditch's reign of unimpressive performances is worthy of 12 mibnutes silence - one for each debut wicket," CT4JK spokesperson Ben McKay said.
"Perhaps you might think about his double dismissal of VVS Laxman. Or his first dismissal - Dravid out for a duck. We're asking Tasmanians to make it personal for them.
"So come on Tasmania - if you only celebrate one World Jason Krejza Day event this year, make it this one."
CT4JK is also hopeful of presenting Jason Krejza with its collected messages of support.
"Weve received many messages of support for Jason and would like to pass them on. We want to keep his spirits high so he can be at his spinning best," spokesperson Hugh Miller said.
Playing for Tasmania against Victoria on Saturday, Krejza stepped up to the plate with a match-turning 2/56. Tasmania's next game will be against New South Wales on November 17-20 which will pit Krejza against the poor-performing and unpopular Australian spinning incumbent Nathan Hauritz.
"CT4JK is relishing the chance to see Krejza show up Hauritz in his own backyard," Mr Miller said.
"After this Shield game, there should be no doubts left in the minds of the non-Tasmanian selectors: Krejza will get that baggy green back."
Australia's first test of the season starts 26 November - against West Indies at the Gabba - and CT4JK is quietly confident of Krejza featuring in the squad.
