Group F (Super 8) - Sri Lanka, Australia, India, West Indies

[slippy]

India need Australia to beat Sri lanka to have any chance of getting to the sem final, Aus 30/4

Gloating's a sign of insecurity, TEC, stop it.

Anyway, as you yourself pointed out Oz were in similarly dire straits v Bangladesh earlier on. I'd hold off on the obituary just yet.

Yeah the elder Hussey still to come, theres a long way to go. Sri Lanka's batting is their weak link IMO, though their bowling arguably the best in the competition. Win or lose this one they're (Sri Lanka) serious contenders for the championship.

Career t20i SR for Clarke plunges to... 105.

 

[BoyBrumby]

TBF Clarke's dismissal is at best a mixed blessing for the bowling team, especially when it brings Hussey snr to the crease.

 

[Jayzamann]

There's still SteveSmith and Midge to come. Holy heck.

 

[Furball]

Cam White, WAG.

 

[Furball]

Pull the field in and cut off singles ffs.

 

[Furball]

Shot from the Huss.

At the other end, guy who should be captain utterly gunning it.

 

[King Pietersen]

That's an outrageous shot from Hussey. Sweeping an 86mph full delivery from Lasith Malinga for 4. Awesome.

 

[Agent TBY]

White WAG.

Mendis getting tonked again.

 

[King Pietersen]

Cameron White is such a gun. Really should be Australian captain, they'd have a beast of a batting line-up with someone like Hodge or when he's fit, Ferguson in the middle order ahead of Clarke.

 

[Furball]

White WAG.

Mendis getting tonked again.

Mainly by White it has to be said. 34 from 16.

 

[Furball]

Was Hussey honestly not originally picked in the squad?

 

[Jayzamann]

Those last 4 overs were the complete opposite of the last game.

 

[AlanJLegend]

Awesome batting at the end by Aussies (partnership of 101) but will it be enough?

 

[BoyBrumby]

To borrow a Bumblism, I'd take the runs on the board.

 

[Burgey]

White! WAG.
Huss! Legend.
Clarke! FMD.

At least we've given ourselves a decent shout at this.

 

[Jayzamann]

I'd be in bed asleep if Australia had folded. I'll have to blame White for my heart palpitations tomorrow from excessive caffeiene intake.

 

[Burgey]

To borrow a Bumblism, I'd take the runs on the board.

Aye. If SL get them will probably (but who knows?) take them a while, so NRR will hopefully be ok.
