*Official* Australia v England post-Ashes ODI series

[S.Kennedy]

Just watching a bit of this during the SA v Indian lunch interval and I noticed BT are just using the Ch9 feed and not doing their own thing like they did during the tests.

 

[Spikey]

surprised ch9 aren't coming out with "roy is 6 runs short of the highest ODI score shown on channel 9"

Jason Roy is on 175 which, of course, is the score Sachin once got out on. But do the batsmen know?

 

[Starfighter]

There's the record for Roy.


Batsmen are playing everything to the leg see, so therefore Starc is bowling around the wicket. I know what he's trying to do, but it's the wrong strategy currently.

Actually surprised England’s highest individual score is only 171, so far.

Robin Smith’s 167 was the record for 23 years (and England lost that match easily!)

That was an amazing knock! Remember that match fondly for Mark Waugh's century in the chase. Then the following Ashes was great as well.

roy will be shattered he won't come close to ben dunk's 229 as the highest limited overs score shown on ch9. or was that on channel gem?

It's all on the Wide World* Of Sports

*except for countries outside of Australia

oh **** off root ya ****face.

 

[quincywagstaff]

Roy now has the highest ever ODI MCG innings. That’s one consolation For England on this tour; they’re creating some spectacular records at the MCG!

And Tasmania lost that match easily; didn’t Khawaja’s also score a double?

 

[ajdude]

nah made a big ton though. also remember warner making 197 or so that season

 

[burr]

Irrespective of whether they are the best LO side or not, England are most certainly the most exciting LO side in the world today. Just so much fun to watch.

Yes, except for that CT semi. Should've won that tourni.

 

[Spikey]

Root's fault.

How is it surprising when England only started playing ODI cricket in June 2015

 

[Starfighter]

He's finally hit one to the fielder. Relief.

 

[burr]

Ohhhh, shame. Still, well done Royster.

 

[Crazy Sam]

Australia were finished well before The Ghan was today. Poor performance all round.

 

[ajdude]

heard a bit of "oh well australia made 300 which is a massive score in ODIs" and "back in the day 220 was a big score lol" from the comms tonight. doing my head in

 

[Crazy Sam]

I've found Mark Taylor's commentary on ODI and T20's in the past few seasons to be particularly outdated.
