14th Match - India v Australia

[GoodAreasShane]

Handscomb with the gloves is a flat out terrible idea.

 

[trundler]

I would send in Hardik Pandya in at 3 to bash a quick 20 if possible

That's one of the worst ideas I've read on here

If by Sad you mean ***y and disillusioned then YES!

Hi Stoinis, it's good to hear from you but get your head into the game.

Im pretty sure the guys at the bachelor party expected to experience Hardik by now.

 

[Gnske]

My view before the world cup was that this needed to be strongly considered (although if they went with Handscomb with the gloves I would have gone with, I can't believe I'm saying it, Forkers Faulkner)

Not sure Faulkner would be want to be part of yet another crash and burn in this country.

Why? It ain't 1995. Proper batsmen know how to score more effectively than pinch hitters.

 

[Cabinet96]

Starc and Cummins 10 overs - 37 runs
Other bowlers 10 overs - 84 runs

 

[Zinzan]

There's few better to watch than an in-form Rohit, so silky.

Meanwhile, Australia's 1st and 2nd change bowling options look so so ordinary. They may need to reassess their selections.

Forkers would live to be part of a World Cup during Pride Month though

Sunday nights? What a loser...Sunday morning here. I have 3 more months of early morning cricket. Can’t wait for the Aussie summer.

Best for the Australian bowlers to treat this like a t20 at the moment. Wickets aren't coming.

 

[slippy888]

Zampa first class bowling stats are beyond bad 107 wickets at a average of 47, it should be at least 35

Once I’m done running my hand through Zampas hair.

 

[Spikey]

Handscomb with the gloves is a flat out terrible idea.

My view was that expecting 20 overs out of Zampa/Maxwell/Stonis wasn't a particularly good idea either. And this was when I thought Haze would be the third seamer. I'm not surprised they didn't do it, of course, it would have been a bold thing to do

Someone is in a mood

I'm watching with family fwiw

 

[wrongun]

Only way Aus in this now is a Maxwell special hundred

 

[Zinzan]

What, looking to restrict then below 8 an over? Not sure that would be the best tactic at this stage.

board is life

 

[quincywagstaff]

Heh, could hear Clarke getting frustrated and wishing he was captining in that Zampa over.

 

[straw man]

Thought this match might be when two batting lineups. highly dependent on a couple of top stars. could have the rest of their batting exposed now they finally face attacking wicket-taking bowlers like Starc, Cummins, Bumrah, Chahal etc. But nah, looks like a run-fest.
