***Official*** India and England in Australia ODI Tri-Series 2015

Three Comments/questions:

1 - How has Bell only scored 4 ODI centuries? He's a freak.
2 - Why is Woakes opening the bowling when you've got Anderson and Broad in the side?
3 - Why do we have to put up with Watson in the regular line-up when Shaun Marsh can do this?

About half his games have been played lower down the order and he is the king of giving it away. look at him in tests.

Not a new tactic, they have used Broad as a change bowler a lot over the years.

NO IDEA

TBF it's not as if watson has been terrible in ODIs. They also injure themselves at about the same rate.

 

[Jono]

Bell's a freak? Jeez we've lowered the bar for that description.

 

[Antihippy]

Seriously though broad doesn't look right with that shaved head and lanky build.

That beard can go too.

watsons been one of our best one day bats for years, though there's certainly a case for smarsh as one of our best two one day openers.

Dean Jones used to be one of our best one day bats. Doesn't mean we should select him now.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Needed that.

Smith at 3? Hmm.

Just thinking how it would suck for Marsh to get runs here but not be a part of WC considering the situation they have with Clarke, Bailey, and Maxwell..

 

[dermo]

nah if marsh gets runs here then he locks down the spot as the clarke replacement, which would still mean he's a decent chance of getting a go

 

[BigBrother]

From what I have been hearing and seeing though Clarke is almost certainly coming back. In that sense it's Bailey who doesn't belong. Clarke being able to bowl would also mean Maxwell is not a lock given he can bowl spin too. It's just too bad that he might not be a part of it at all just because he is not named in the squad.

 

[Antihippy]

Do people really expect clarke to bowl?

 

[BigBrother]

And as I do all this talking up he gets out.

 

[dermo]

where the **** has this come from

 

[Jono]

Yessssssssssssss

England stopped bowling like a bunch of Indians now

 

[BigBrother]

And I see White looks just as awkward at the crease as the last time I seen him play international cricket. Guessing that might be the end of his contribution for the season.

 

[Jono]

that would have been 3 in the over!

 

[HeathDavisSpeed]

Poor old Cameron White. Looking at this and the Indian game, perhaps Finn has got his mojo back. Makes a massive difference to the England team if he fires.

tbf he's stood in the field watching the ball do nothing all arvo then second one he gets hoops in from nowhere

 

[Spikey]

From bull**** discussions about roped-in boundaries to talking about ****ing selfie sticks.

Someone really has to get rid of @bbuzzmc.

This is even better because I knew the following had happen too:
