10th Match - Australia v West Indies

[stephen]

Stoinis isn't really that good of hitter either. Can't bat properly. Can't bowl..

He's much better when he can build an innings. Needs to bat up the order or not at all.

 

[Starfighter]

How many ODIs has marsh even played recently though. He's been out of the side for ages and hadn't played much OD cricket at all.

I suppose that if they had been not picking MMarsh for the tests where he totally didn't deserve to be selected he might have been fitter for the ODIs where he did.

 

[Hicheal Michael]

Didn't M Marsh have the GOAT MOM/game ratio in ODI's?

smith score predictor?

phlegm - 35*

 

[morgieb]

Every Australian replacement in this 2019 side is a downgrade on their 2015 counterpart, except Cummins.

I'm not even convinced he's significantly better than MJ/Hazlewood at ODI cricket.

That 2015 side looks damn under-rated in hindsight though. Lacking a proper spinner but otherwise it was class.

 

[GotSpin]

Why is Slats commentating by himself?

 

[stephen]

I'm not sure the score predictor has seen Carey bat.

He's probably not, I would take MJ ahead of him. As for Haze...it's hard, Cummins has had two ordinary years in OD cricket sandwiched between two great years

 

[Burgey]

The latter, imho.

 

[stephen]

Bishop talking up Carey like he's any good.

 

[Burgey]

I'm not sure the score predictor has seen Carey bat.

He's batting hard AF and trying to repair an omni-shambles. Putting some other blokes to shame with his application.

 

[91Jmay]

Maxwell showing what a sack of shite he is again. Hopeless cricketer.

 

[vcs]

WI's attack looks lethal so far in this World Cup.

 

[stephen]

Are these easy singles for Smith a tactic to get him off strike?

 

[Moss]

Carey pulling off the ramp shot rather well there.

 

[Starfighter]

Are these easy singles for Smith a tactic to get him off strike?

Very possible.

 

[stephen]

That one almost went to hand.

 

[Arachnodouche]

WI's attack looks lethal so far in this World Cup.

And to think they have Gabriel and Roach waiting in the wings, two guys who if anything can be even nastier when they choose to.

 

[Burgey]

WI's attack looks lethal so far in this World Cup.

Different game when there's bounce. Can bowl the same pace with that skiddy **** and it just comes on nicely. Ball that got Finch a classic example.

Reckon FInch and Warner undone a bit by how trash the first two overs were and didn't play with the respect this attack deserves. Khawaja though - just ****ing awful. Mirror image of Haddin in the 47 all out dig.

 

[stephen]

Could this be Carey's Symonds 03 moment?
