10th June - Group A - England v Australia

The game is drifting away from Australia fast

Jesus that was a proper baseball slug. Brutal hit.

Well kudos to these two, have been batting really well since the rain break. At least losing (if we do go on to lose) is a much easier pill to swallow than another no result.

Also why are McCullum and Smith commentating an Australia/England match? Would've thought it just be Australian and English comms.

 

[Daemon]

Halfway mark now, only need another 139 but they need to get rid of these two plus Moeen and Buttler. This lineup is unforgiving.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Lovely shot that.

"The reverse molarch"

 

[Howe_zat]

Lol at Warne getting the batsman wrong and trying to save it

'four more for Stokes...and Morgan's partnership'

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Fielding has been woeful, we were superb today in the field but the Aussies look flat.

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

Time for hazlewood maybe

 

[Daemon]

If you can't trust Henriques to bowl a bit now then why even pick him. They're just hoping for a brainfade at this point.

Nah. Head and Maxwell. Gotta spin the ball away from the lefties IMO.

Peak ODI Yuvraj vs Morgan. Tough call.

 

[cnerd123]

Morgan's a solid batsman for someone picked as an 'Irish Novelty'

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Thought picking 3 pie chuckers to make up a 10 over spell was so 90's.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Bosh, have that

 

[Howe_zat]

**** you

 

[flibbertyjibber]

That takes the piss that does.

 

[Daemon]

I hope Steve Smith liked that shot, he doesn't have the monopoly on flicking balls from outside off to the midwicket fence

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

This is ending fast

Absolute pasting this. Been some craptaincy on show by Smith today.
