Like Iyer, I once predicted I was going to be kicked in the balls in 8th Grade. I knew what to do and how to pull a ju-jitsu move to prevent it. Unfortunately I didn't know ju-jitsu and as that boot slammed into my soft fleshy testicles, I felt pride in knowing that I knew how to play the situation.

Probably not the brightest of ideas to pop up and say this when there's still a match to go.
Shreyas Iyer 'overwhelmed' that Australia have devised a strategy for him
"They set attacking fields which really helps me to score runs, so I take advantage of that"www.espncricinfo.com
"In the second match, I was just like - look at the ball and react. It's very easy to do that, rather than think what the bowler is bowling. You can actually predict, once you are set, what the bowler is going to bowl, so I usually give myself time at the start and that's what I applied in the second match and it really worked out well."
I admire his self belief but he really was all at sea against the bouncers. Was just lucky Finch started bowling Zampa and Maxwell at him in tandem.
Presumably Sabba plays today, and his bouncer is usually right on the money too.

I think he knows full well he’ll cop them regardless, so he may as well display some false bravado and convince himself he can do it.
Must be tough, hope he finds a way.

Moooo
I'd give TNat a game.

Warne questioned why Cummins should be allowed to rest from ODIs and T20s for Australia purely because he needs a break after playing IPL.
For once I agree with him, especially as Cummins took $3mil to play IPL rather than play for Australia ( should at least doc him some of his CA contract money for not showing up)

Well he missed todays game and will miss the three T20s. Reason given needs to rest after IPL

Warne was suggesting he only missed this one because he played the IPL.
I reckon that's basically just bullshit tbh. CA probably would've rested him in the lead up the Tests anyway IMO.

I miss the old days when Aussie captains kept the foot on the throat to do everything to win 3-0 rather than rest the vice captain and lead bowler
Probably stopped with Allan Border (or maybe Mark Taylor)

It may rock you to your core but I reckon he would've been rested even if it was 1-1. Selectors don't really go all out to win JAMODI series anymore.

But all ODI games now count towards seeding in the next World Cup (don't really care about him missing T20s)

Yeah but they don't care.

I know both sides are experimenting and dgaf but seriously Henriques and Green batting 4 and 5 for the international ODI team? Especially with Wade on the bench it's an interesting call.

How much do you gain from Wade playing?
The best thing that could come of it would legitimately be Marnus getting more experience at the position he will actually be batting long term in this format.
I want to argue that maybe it'll help them win the game, and that is a major factor. But nah, it's 2020.
