*Official* Match #10 — Australia Vs South Africa Oct 12th, Lucknow

[Prince EWS]

Daily reminder that Head > Wade


@Prince EWS

Based and hearteyes reacc pilled.

 

[King Kane]

To make it worse for the Aussies, they won the toss and chose to bowl first lol.

The ball is moving all over the place now.

 

[honestbharani]

yeeeeep. all the stubbornness with both selection and approach stems back from that poisoned chalice. they fluked a tournament and thought it meant they were vindicated by ignoring everything that's happened in white ball cricket since 2015.

I think they should have just made Warner captain for the LO stuff after Finch as a stop gap while someone like Mitch Marsh or Head cement their spots.

 

[Spikey]

Well yeah Warner probably should be captain but that was different stubbornness

They can't! It was a huge kerfuffle and the ****ing board of CA ended up getting involved. He's still banned from the captaincy.

 

[Burgey]

Imagine the 8th circle of hell next WC when Inglis and Fraser-McJerk are batting together

This is a dire idea tbh. I'd sooner make you captain than Warner.

Head should have been captain. They were too cowardly to do it before he cemented his spot.

Not that he'd be playing tonight anyway, but still.

Well, last time they chose to bat first. Its a bit like this....

Knew South Africa made an above par total, not sure about second innings pitch becoming flatter in d/n now

Tonight was one of the few times that I have seen Inglis keep & he didn’t look much better than a part timer

Peirson is very unlucky not to have played for Australia

 

[Burgey]

If you can't beat em, join the Liberal Party.

It’s not like he’s going to have many wins with them either tbf

Bax too.

At least his parents will invite me to their corporate box.

 

[loterry1994]

This is pretty much our England 2015 moment

It seems to me you should bat first unless dew is likely to be a factor, then you bowl.

Basically the 2016 Presidential Election of white ball trophies then

 

[Nintendo]

Fluking that T20 WC coz Arun Finch won coin tosses has really overshadowed how average we've been in white ball stuff for 4 years

We went 3-3 against India in india in the leadup to this wc and beat a full strength England in England. We've been fine in odi when anywhere near full strength.

Like Aus would ever be that lucky...

 

[Son Of Coco]

Just what we needed from Inglish - a quickfire 5 off 4.

 

[Burgey]

Bax too.

There’s only eight keepers in Aus ahead of him now.

Another one sided match.
