***Official*** Trans-Tasman Twenty20 Tri-Series

[Starfighter]

Bowling short to Lynn. Wise stuff.

if there's anything the big bash and super smash have taught me its that we need to bring on our dirtiest, filthiest dobber to get a breakthrough

lord colins at both ends imo

 

[TheJediBrah]

I love how sensible Lynn is being. Very uncharacteristic.

Need more Colins

 

[Flem274*]

how dead must KPs soul be to suck from the penii of his old adversary because he hates his own former team mates so much

 

[CM Punk]

Why are we not bowling out the specialists?

 

[straw man]

What exactly is the point of having the field spread so there're singles everywhere when Aus need less than 6 per over?

 

[CM Punk]

That's Kane Richardson there

 

[TheJediBrah]

I'd just keep Santner and Sodhi on with a ring field and maybe just 2 or 3 men out.

 

[CM Punk]

How many people will show up at Eden Park for Aus v Eng?

10,000?

 

[TheJediBrah]

Players who have impressed me today:

de Grandhomme (surprisingly good hitting), Sodhi (great control, big turn both ways), Santner (love his variations)

We should play NZ more often

 

[Flem274*]

maxwell looks so good here.

might be worth a gig in the odi side

 

[TheJediBrah]

Players who have disappointed me today:

KW (why do you even bother), Warner (stupidity), Short (Warner clone, aka stupidity)

 

[Flem274*]

anyway if we could remember to select a middle order for the next game that might make nz more competitve

 

[TheJediBrah]

They need to stop trying to bowl quicker balls to Lynn, Seriously just bowl slow and loopy and he will get himself out

 

[CM Punk]

Performances like this is why Australia never invite us.

Our players shut down whenever they set foot on Aussie soil.

 

[Starfighter]

That was disappointing. Without CDG it would have been even more disappointing.

Who gets dropped from this Aus side when (if) Finch and Smith come back?

Probably Agar, with Maxwell/Short/Stoinis to make up the overs, and I'd get rid of Zampa too. As nice as it was to have 5 specialist bowlers it's a bit risky if you lose early wickets because you've got such a small safety net.

Warner
Finch
Lynn
Smith
Short
Maxwell
Stoinis
Carey
Starc
Tye
Stanlake

Does maybe look a bowler short (though not necessarily), maybe just keep Smith out of T20s if he's willing and pick another bowler.

To be honest I'm kind of hoping Smith doesn't come back
