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

[Son Of Coco]

They should do a high cutaway shot of Bracken Ridge if they want to highlight the beauty of Brisbane. They'd get a magnificent view of bogans racing down Telegraph Road (grow up you ****wits) and car theft.

 

[TheJediBrah]

Cummins bad

 

[Son Of Coco]

Cummins has had a shocker in the field this tournament.

 

[the big bambino]

Alinta miss of the match moment from Cummins there.

 

[Burgey]

You just know that if Pat Cummins cosplayed as a coal miner like Matt Canavan, he would be leading wicket taker

 

[Son Of Coco]

Pat would probably be more inclined to represent the 'national interests' if his brother ran a coal mine.

 

[Pothas]

Pretty sensational innings this.

 

[morgieb]

He couldn't do it...could he?

If he does, would be the greatest T20 innings of all-time?

 

[Spark]

This has been horrible since Finch went off.

 

[Son Of Coco]

If Australia hands over our right to laugh at England here, I will be ropeable.

 

[Starfighter]

So much for helping our net run rate.

 

[Pothas]

Really should have taken the single at the end of the last over.

 

[Spark]

So much for helping our net run rate.

In fairness, realistically this probably won't go down to NRR anyway because NZ look in far better nick than England right now.

 

[Spark]

Really should have taken the single at the end of the last over.

Yeah, more intelligent management of strike is one area where I do think limiters overs tactics still has some way to go.

 

[Everton Seymour]

Barry McCarthy you idiot

 

[morgieb]

In fairness, realistically this probably won't go down to NRR anyway because NZ look in far better nick than England right now.

Would still have been good to have it in our own hands. Now the equation is to bowl out Afghanistan for 70-odd as the Plan B.

Really we've looked really ordinary all tournament. Stoinis god mode was needed to get the job done against Sri Lanka, New Zealand was an utter belting and here we've been really inconsistent.

 

[chris.hinton]

Aussies are not doing enough. If they dont make the semis its an embarrassing achievement

 

[morgieb]

I could kind of get going for the two after Over 16, but surely there you'd just give Tucker the strike?

 

[Son Of Coco]

Didn't slide his bat did he?

Edit: absolutely did, but not home. Thought he plonked it in the crease.

 

[Spark]

Geez we have been sloppy in the field.
