Yeah I imagine the decks at the WC will either be 350 plays 350+ with some dew involved or more spin friendly.I will be pleasantly surprised if Australia plays India on a pitch like that in the WC
Nothing wrong with the deck but it brought our quicks into play
Yeah this is what I think too and exactly why I think they're experimenting with this Head/MMarsh opening idea; just all out aggression at the top of the order when boundary hitting is at its easiest. People have kind of written Warner off unfairly on the basis of his rubbish Test form, but he's probably better suited to #3 or #4 these days with the way he tends to accumulate with singles and twos rather than explode early.Yeah I imagine the decks at the WC will either be 350 plays 350+ with some dew involved or more spin friendly.
Warners hard to quantify because he's been in good ODI form but either side of that he had a torrid T20 WC and can't buy runs in test cricket. Ide back Warner over marsh but it's gonna be frustrating if Warner has a bad tourney and marsh is sitting right there.Yeah this is what I think too and exactly why I think they're experimenting with this Head/MMarsh opening idea; just all out aggression at the top of the order when boundary hitting is at its easiest.

Glenn McGrath: "Am I a joke to you"Three top tier WC performances in a row would be totally unprecedented in ODI history.
Wasn't Lee the main man in 2003 rather than McGrath?Glenn McGrath: "Am I a joke to you"
McGrath had 21 wickets @ 14 in the tournament, even if that is heavily influenced by his haul v NamibiaWasn't Lee the main man in 2003 rather than McGrath?
Bichel was arguably better than both but all three had awesome tournaments.Wasn't Lee the main man in 2003 rather than McGrath?
Marsh should be one of the first chosen as we aren’t winning anything by dawdling along to 275-300Marsh the ODI cricketer is frustrating in general cause I don't know how he actually fits into a full strength side. He's still a genuine wicket taking option but his recent injuries mean he's only realistically able to provide a part timers workload and I don't like the idea of 4 specialist bowlers+Maxy and part time overs. You should be able to stretch 10 overs between Maxy-Part time marsh + head but if one of the frontline guys has an off game it could get messy (above is assuming marsh plays at 5 over green). I think you could fix all these issues by fielding a lineup of
1.Warner
2.Head
3.Smith
4.Green
5.Carey/Marsh
6.Marsh/Carey
7.Maxwell
But the selectors seem determined to back marnus despite his mediocre returns so far.
Lee definitely bowled the best of them, he was unplayable at times with the new rock and didn't get as many rewards as he should have. It's hard to compare them all but I'd even put Gillespie ahead of Bichel in the few games he played, his spell against India was special.Bichel was arguably better than both but all three had awesome tournaments.
Johnson is rapid but he’s a Starc replacementCricket Addict,
Do you think india have any plan to face Spencer Jonson at Oval june 7-11 Spencer @ Left arm Medium fast bowler Indian player Lack the skill in last 5 year vs Topley ( 6 fer) Vs Mustafizur (5fer) vs Boult ( 5 fer) & now M. Starc (5/53)
Spencer is included in Aus A vs Lion in eng for Un official Couple of test who took 16 wkts in 2 FC games in Aus
Aus Have him on Ashes Radar.
When India will learn to face Left arm fast or medium fast bowker?
