***Official*** Australia in England 2018

[Starfighter]

That's bad for us. Billings was wasting lots of deliveries there.

 

[Borges]

One of those aforementioned variations has got Billings. Though I suspect, that may turn out to be a blessing in disguise for England.

 

[fredfertang]

You're jinxing it.

Billings had to go

 

[Borges]

Jhye Richardson is not overawed and comprehensively wins that skirmish with Buttler. Well done!

 

[Starfighter]

The C9 bits of the broadcast and Warner's mush-mouth intruding is jarring.

 

[Borges]

In the meantime, Lionel Messi has fluffed a penalty.

 

[Borges]

Another good over from Jhye Richardson. Buttler has stuttered, big time.

 

[Starfighter]

Kane doing his best to ruin his figures here.

 

[Daemon]

With Adolf, it is more about people avoiding the look after him. It used to be a common moustache - even Charlie Chaplin's tramp had it.

Yeah but it was still a bad look

 

[Starfighter]

At least England will only be posting a total that is well beyond us rather than stupidly far.

 

[Starfighter]

And slower-ball death specialist Tye ends up by far the most expensive bowler, thus proving that 22 variations of crap is still crap.

 

[Mr Miyagi]

Buttler, just sheer class, 91(70).

 

[91Jmay]

Poor last 10 but good total overall. Need another finisher as Billings not good enough.

 

[Starfighter]

That was a weird innings. It never felt like the batsmen were really pushing for it but the score just kept inexorably building up.

 

[Spikey]

C9 commentary team yet to ask Warner about the Sri Lanka issue

 

[Mr Miyagi]

Poor last 10 but good total overall. Need another finisher as Billings not good enough.

He's really got to go. I don't even know how he made it into the IPL to be honest.

 

[weldone]

Why is Short so defensive now? Is he waiting for the spinners, lol?

 

[Black_Warrior]

C9 commentary team yet to ask Warner about the Sri Lanka issue

Because he has already made his views crystal clear on the subject along with his policy of not commenting on other teams

"I won't comment on the way [South Africa] have been behaving but I just know from an Australian cricket perspective: we hold our heads high and I'll be very disappointed if one of our teammates did that,
"The rules are in place for a reason, if you're not gonna use them, then why bother having them?"

 

[Mr Miyagi]

England don't need wickets here. These 2 (Short and Marsh) are clearly unable to meet the rrr so far.

 

[Daemon]

Lol, England have done their homework. Spin from both ends for Short and he inevitably falls.
