Group 1 (Afghanistan, Australia, England, New Zealand, Sri Lanka, Ireland)

[Xuhaib]

This is a Peak Kohliesque knock From Conway

You know, for someone with good figures, Phillips looked like a tailender having a semi-competent slash.

Phillips is a T20 version of Steve Smith. A bit of a weirdo all round really

 

[Spark]

Stoinis has done well to not get half-volleyed for four there.

 

[straw man]

Death bowling has been pretty good, but that was a missed opportunity off the half volley Neesham

Edit: another
Edit2: And hits that one! Hazlewood mistake.

 

[Spark]

This particular Aus side is seriously mediocre in the field. Real lack of athleticism compared to previous Aus sides.

 

[Burgey]

Great throw Max

Lol that’s miles too many for this Aus side. My prediction about their chances is looking good

 

[Starfighter]

45 too many. At least.

It's all the same players. They're just old now.

Would be nice to have Steve Smith in there

Will express similar sentiments when the swinging ball is ripping through Aus' middle-order "batsmen"

Much better than that.

Yep, 100% agreed

 

[Moss]

That’s a par score I guess. Could’ve been better if not for the customary middle over slowdown but fine effort Conway.

 

[Fuller Pilch]

Nervous. Wanted 220.

That's miiiiles over par IMO

 

[Fuller Pilch]

Conway averages 71 vs Australia in T20is. Would've romped to the title last year if he hadn't foolishly injured himself vs England.

Pessimism at its finest!

No way that's par, that's an incredibly good effort by us. However, with Sodhi, Southee in our side, there's guys to target. We should be favourites but it ain't over.

 

[Spark]

No inter-innings break? Fair enough

 

[Starfighter]

Well NZ already doing better in the field.

 

[Spark]

I appreciate the commentators talking about the atmosphere at the ground because you sure can't ****ing hear it in the broadcast.

 

[Starfighter]

Not sure what match you were watching. Regular length break for me.

Yeah more the composition of the attack, really. Lockie hasn’t been at his best of late too. But generally you’d say job done to the batsmen for putting up 200.
