***Official*** Australia in England 2012

You do know he has top scored in this match right now don't you?


Makes most runs. Call for his head.

Makes sense.

not calling for his head ****monkey. i said he's giving me the ****s and has done nothing for ages. still doing better than others yes.

BS

Top players make it count and he virtually never does

Seem to remember the selectors dumping Khawaja for failing to convert starts after a few tests

Watto has been given a few years!

It's bordering on the ridiculous now because every player in every team and every fan watching knows what's coming

Errr, Khawaja's starts were 20s. Watson's are 60s.

 

[Ruckus]

Amazing bowling is overdoing it by a mile. If Clarke and (Mike) Hussey are in, we're going at 4.5+ in that period, guaranteed.

Yeah totally agree. It hasn't been amazing bowling at all, that's what's so frustrating about this.

Well if I had called it diabolical batting by Australia i'd get called for trolling so played safe and bigged my lot up instead. To be fair it has been a combination of both but to concede so few runs in the middle of a one day game is impressive from the bowling sides point of view.

 

[Spark]

I mean the pitch has slowed somewhat so a bit of slowing is fair, but it's just the complete lack of knowledge as to how to rotate the strike that frustrates me. Too many length balls being blocked to midwicket.

Even White at his worst was better than this ffs.

woah woah woah - lets not go crazy now

 

[Ruckus]

Don't see why White would be the worst option tbh. He hit really good form for the first time in ages in the IPL, and he has been quite successful for us in the past in OD's.

 

[Spark]

AGAIN. How the hell do you so comprehensively fail to deal with a length ball on leg stump?

Reported.

 

[Burgey]

Seems the new ball was the best scoring time.

Just lacking in a bit of feel for the game atm these blokes. Like the short game in golf.

Well, not my short game at golf. Always sublime.

You spend more time in the sand than David Hasselhoff ****.

Two balls on leg stump during a powerplay over. No runs off the bat.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Good job for Australia we have given away too many extras or it would be even worse. Can't really let Dernbach get away with bowling a powerplay over for just 2 runs, that simply isn't good enough.

 

[Burgey]

Look ****, I can skull a wedge like a one iron with the best of them

 

[Burgey]

Is that George Bailey?

 

[Son Of Coco]

Given Bailey is our Twenty 20 captain at least we can be safe in the knowledge he'll go off like a firecracker in the last 10 overs...

 

[Spark]

One of the best shots he's played.

 

[heathrf1974]

Is that George Bailey?

He's not up to international standard.
