You're letting replays colour your view IMO. That looked stone dead live, out every single day of the week. Was kind of surprising how legside it was.

It looked legsideish, but not that legsidesish. Stone dead is an exaggeration.

 

[Starfighter]

Something other than the long-hop strategy please.

 

[Neil Young]

You feel that if the Windies get up, they'll get up in under 40 overs.

Yeah. I'm hoping they bat first against Afghanistan or Bangladesh, could see some records tumble

Not if Hope stays on strike. 3 off 17 so far.

 

[mr_mister]

Also Pooran looks class. These two plus Holder sometimes is the only cake in the entire team though so hopefully thru deliver

World Cup Final ? Both these two feel like they've come to win the trophy .

Pretty impressed by the Australia fightback , they might lack skills but they got some steel .

So far as greatest playing batsman goes , it all boils down to Root , Smith or Kohli in my opinion . I reckon Kohli shades it . I saw a knock of his the other year in England and that man did not know what was going on ... for hours of gametime . Yet somehow , he held on , mastered the ball , farmed the strike in a tense period and built a nice score. I don't like him much as a captain and he annoys the crap out of me as an individual , but as a batsman , I think he's built some of the best innings I've ever seen in the current game.

Is it weird that I'm rooting for Australia ? Feel like they've earnt it .

I recon if Pooran doesn't get out soon Maxwell would be worth an over against him. Really slow it up. Either that or one of Zampa's extra loopy ones.

 

[mr_mister]

Well that confirms that Gaffeny should find himself a new job

 

[Neil Young]

Oh dear. How did Gaffney miss that no ball? Huge. He's had a shocker.

Can they sub him?

Busy trying to give gayle out.

 

[Ilovecric]

So sad for Gayle. This piece of **** umpire clearly wants to sabotage WI chances by targeting Gayle. So ****ing pissed.

 

[Arachnodouche]

Pooran is pure silk. That inside out drive against Maxwell was something else.

Yeah, definitely a conspiracy against the Windies.

Especially that one given that was actually out.

 

[Borges]

Terrible umpiring; TOTUB very unlucky to be out on umpire's call on what should have been a free hit.
Biased umpiring? No; I think it is just sustained incompetence, and not sustained bias.

 

[Neil Young]

Pooran is pure silk. That inside out drive against Maxwell was something else.

Yeah, I've seen nothing of him before today. He's great to watch.

 

[Borges]

Why is this Maxwell disaster bowling, ahead of Zampa?

 

[trundler]

To be fair a lot of overhead wides and consequently no balls weren't called in the Australian innings either.

 

[Ilovecric]

Umpires clearly aren't looking for no balls anymore lol
