*Official* Match#5 - India vs Australia

[ashley bach]

Smith has looked in good touch but is complimented a lot by Warner. Two grinders at the crease now against an accurate attack.

Good to see the Panadol appears to of kicked in mate.

 

[Gob]

Good from Australia to play out the first session only 2 down

I haven’t watched a limited overs game in years and this is why. No one is doing anything. Neither team is attacking. 0-1 slips, the bowlers bowling boring straight and slow, batsmen just nurdling it for 1 and 2.

Smith is getting frustrated out their. Premeditated a scoop/ramp off siraj and has lost his shape a few times trying to overhit the ball. Good bowling/captaincy to keep these two this quiet, there usually good at moving the scoreboard over with 1s/2s.

Smith is trying to attack. Just not timing anything.

That's just because of the magnanimity of Indian bowlers.

 

[GIMH]

Is it just me who thinks we’re going up to the third umpire far too often so far in the tournament?

Aus getting stuck here with Smith and marnus together.

 

[Nintendo]

India are fielding really well here. Saved 4/5 runs these past 2 balls and kept the pressure on.

 

[King Kane]

Marnus wouldn't get a game for South Africa right now.

Maybe in test matches but not ODIs.

If only Australia got Conway who is good at both formats.

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

Australia looking for 250-260 region (winning score) so need to do anything silly now

jaddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddduuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

 

[OverratedSanity]

Smith got really bogged down, was always coming.

 

[GIMH]

Absolute beauty

 

[BazBall21]

Australians like smiling when they're dismissed

 

[King Kane]

That's a jaffa from Jadeja, even Smith couldn't get a bat on that.

Aussies in trouble now.

 

[Nintendo]

HUH? Why. The. ****. Is maxwell at 5????? I love how we spent these past 4 years turning maxwell into a #7 and getting good results for it, than when the WC rocks up we send him out at 5. He's just come back from an injury, is gonna be bowling more than ever with no other spinners in the squad, and yet we send him in higher then ever and increase his workload more. It's so stupid.

 

[ashley bach]

First ball I see live today is a from Jadeja.

That is the game - temperament and patience tested. Patience to respect good phases/bowling/conditions so can capitalize later. This is exactly what makes ODIs far superior than T20
