4th Match - Australia v England

[Fuller Pilch]

Hasn’t played an ODI since the World Cup

Okay cheers. Didn't realise. Decent ODI bowler imo

 

[PlayerComparisons]

They've moved on from him it seems.

Coincidentally, our ODI side has gotten much, much worse.

They just want to make sure the game is close. Woakes not playing cancels out all of Cummins, Hazlewood, and Starc not playing imo.

 

[Stapel]

Root not getting that drive past mid off, he should try hitting those drives in the air.

Nah.
From this point, England would do well, not taking too many risks.

We might have played better with golf clubs than cricket bats.

 

[Silver Silva]

This Extras lad is a mighty fine player , Australia should be wary of him.

 

[Qlder]

Tbf their fifth bowler is a mix of Maxi, Head, Smith and Labuschagne.

Smith hasn't bowled in an ODI in over 4 years while Labuschsgne has bowled 4 times in last 40 ODI's (11 overs total)

Overs will be Maxwell, Head and Short

Hard to imagine Steve Smith was introduced to the cricket world as a leg spinner that could bat a bit!

 

[Fuller Pilch]

Zampa is so important. If England can see him off and punish the rest they should get a match winning score.

Flat pitch. 350 a minimum here.

Is dew expected to a factor batting 2nd?

 

[King Kane]

Nah.

I was being sarcastic, both Root and Duckett are playing sensibly hitting most of their shots along the ground rather than hitting them in the air.

It's an ODI not a T20, these two need to build a platform with wickets in hand to have a swing in the last 15 overs, no need for too many risks now.

 

[Son Of Coco]

Rooty and Gnomey going well against our 6th strong team.

It will take a miracle to get up here. We can only hope Maxwell is reduced to playing on 1 leg when we bat.

Indeed, I wouldn't want to see Brook in until 35 overs in. Just go at a run a ball or so til then.

 

[LangleyburyCCPlayer]

Duckett will inevitably do something stupid, but so far this has been a very sensible partnership

[SkyBlue]

This bowling lineup is terrible

Guess their batting will have to bail them out big time

 

[number11]

England have had a bad run of it of late in ODIs/T20s, but the batting looks so good. In 2nd gear and still going at 7rpo. Missed all the weekday games, so enjoying saturday.
