26th Match - Australia v Afghanistan

[Dan]

If they really do want to be serious about this though having your number 3 play like mohammed shami is not the way to go, with all due respect to mohammed shami.

Yeah, that's a very fair point -- I'm trying to explain why it might be happening, more than attempting to condone it

is this the "i'm ****ing bored" bowling change or the "i'd feel bad if we bowled them out too fast" bowling change?

The "I didn't bat so I'd better prove to dem haterz that my back isn't broken today" bowling change, IMO.

Man, clarke used to have a really beautiful zip through his action when he was younger. Gone now.

Still a great action. If his back isn't ****ed he really could make a good fist on being a really good all rounder.

 

[Dan]

SHOT!

Man Afghanistan are such a fun team. How can you not like them?

Should've gone through with my plan and went to this game.

 

[Spark]

yesssssss

 

[morgieb]

wtf clarke bowling.

Had nfi he still could.

 

[faheemaltaf]

Afg batsmen are doing net practice coz they know they cant win this game

 

[Antihippy]

This has really been a weird innings so far.

 

[Antihippy]

Oh god those marsh genes strike again.

 

[Spikey]

you should probably go off the field

 

[Antihippy]

Jesus that was a proper screamer.

 

[faheemaltaf]

Johnson took the impotent wicket of Nowroz Mangal

 

[Dan]

Mitch made an agreement with his brother Shaun (and father Rod) that he'd get injured during the Afghanistan game and the selectors would replace him with Shaun because they've picked too many ****ing all-rounders and Aaron Finch.

Johnson took the impotent wicket of Nowroz Mangal

Heh.

 

[Dan]

Johnson took the impotent wicket of Nowroz Mangal

I go agree with this though; that wicket was very impotent considering Nowroz looked to be in good foam with some impressive strock-play.

Especially seeing that finch has all the all-round skills you need.

 

[Spark]

off the bat that sounded like it'd go way more than 98m

 

[Dan]

So Starc and his yorkers, eh?

 

[Spark]

let's be honest this was always going to happen

 

[Antihippy]

Did people really think otherwise?

Though I honestly didn't expect afghanistan to concede that much.
