Warm Up Games

[Howe_zat]

If we don't win today it will be about Smith's innings of real substance beating a handful of cameos from England. Missing Root.

Still, Woakes playing very nicely now.

Edit: Curran gone as I type. Aus should close out from here, he'd be the one I'd pick to be a thorn in their side.

I wonder why Vince and Ali didn't want to see England home today. I suppose they had their reasons.

 

[wpdavid]

Decent spell from Lyon.

 

[trundler]

Yeah Lyon exploited conditions very well to his credit.

I'm hyped for the World Cup now. Hopefully we'll see a variety of conditions and also some drama. Hope England lose to Bangladesh or Afghanistan.

Australia without Starc, Cummo and Maxi beat England without Root and Morgan.

Australia without Starc, Cummo and Maxi beat England without Root and Morgan.

No Archer either.

 

[Athlai]

Good day for NZ with us outright demolishing India and having England’s immense batting not succeed in a gettable chase.

 

[Starfighter]

Lol that decision from Wilson would have to be one of the worst third umpiring decisions of all time. I hope that clown doesn't screw up when it actually matters.

 

[Burgey]

Normal WC service is resuming - Australia lifting, India capitulating away and England taking the gas.

For those who want a giggle, currently on Fox Sports, Zaheer Khan is bowling that hilarious opening spell to Hayden and Gilchrist in the 2003 final. Do yourselves a favour and watch him sledge them both before going at eights.

 

[Burgey]

No Archer either.

Joffra Archer - the proven Steve Smith destroyer...

 

[social]

Only a warmup but a reminder that Smith is on another level

desperately need munro and southee to seal their fates in these

Are you sure Root was not dropped, Australia have his number.

Just heading towards the end of this highlights package now with Harby and Zaheer at the crease for the hapless Indian outfit, but how ****ing good is it seeing McGtath just stroll down the pitch and catch his WC bunny in the first over? Was like a predator playing with its food, it was such a lopsided contest between those two.

Good to see Dorf do so well yesterday. Yet more evidence that Burgey is a poor judge of cricketers.

 

[Burgey]

He’s so mediocre, he would be India’s greatest ever pacer.

[Burgey]

Did anyone else notice last night that TPC was a lot stiller as the bowler ran in Than he was the last season before he was cruelly and unfairly cut down by the powers that be?

 

[Daemon]

was fairly still when dropping that dolly at first slip too

 

[trundler]

Southee and Riaz did well too. Interesting.
