I hope WI win as I'm sick of the Aus selectors setting the batting order (instead of the Captain)

Short at #7 with Inglis and Green at 2 and 3 is a joke (just like Green at 4 in Test side)
From what I've heard, if that is the batting lineup it's not going to be a series long thing. The selectors just wanna try some guys in different spots, which is really the entire point of this jamODI's isn't it? There's no WC for 4 years and even the champions trophy is 18+ months away. May aswell see what the boys can do.

Factoid for geography nerds, I didn't know Keacy Carty was from Sint Maarten. That might make him eligible for the Netherlands. From a quick google, everyone born in Sint Maarten can take Dutch citizenship.

That’s the island with the airport on the beach isn’t it, where you can stand there and let the jet wash blow you into the water?

Yes it's also the only land border between France and the Netherlands. The island is split roughly in half between France (Saint Martin) and the Netherlands (Sint Maarten).

Yeah honestly who actually cares about the batting order in a random home ODI three months after a WC where half the side got rested anyway. They're just trying stuff.

Well personally Haiti's history is fascinating and I'd like to visit Cap-Haitien, the Sans Souci and the Citadelle, if it wasn't so insanely dangerous.

"Fascinating" is definitely a word for Haiti's history. "Unbelievably depressing" is another, though.
