*Official* Australia in England T20s and ODIs

It's a name myself, Dan and the_gas derived. Adil Rashid > Adil Gashid > Gash.

We're real wordsmiths.

If this knock doesn't get Rashid on the plane to S Africa nothing will.

Why is Bret Lee bowling?

With his pace any ball that doesnt go to a fieldsman will generally be 4

9 overs for 65 and our best bowlers on the night (Haurritz Hopes and Johnson) all left with plenty of unbowled overs

Just dumb

 

[four_or_six]

Very poor ball from Bracken.

 

[King Pietersen]

Another nice shot from Gash, and should have been a no ball. If we lose by 1 run I'll be annoyed.

 

[superkingdave]

HTF was that not a no ball?

 

[stumpski]

Four - but not a no-ball?

 

[Zinzan]

Handy boundary, was it a no ball ?

Lee's done okay given the times he's been bowling, but taking Johnson off permanently after wickets in consecutive overs looks really strange.

 

[stumpski]

The extra ball would have been handy TSTL. Siders on strike with 8 wanted from three.

 

[Zinzan]

Looking forward to Scaly's post match rant tbh

 

[King Pietersen]

Nope, not going to happen. Going to need a miracle for Sidey to get these. Need a 3 off this delivery.

Sidey you tit. Smack it don't leave it.

Or anything that we could have made from an extra delivery.

 

[superkingdave]

Lol, a leave

 

[stumpski]

Shivnarine Sidebottom needed now ...

 

[wpdavid]

Lol, a leave

Your'e having me on?

 

[grecian]

Hilarious stuff this match, crap from both sides and the umpires

 

[King Pietersen]

A 6 from Sidebottom to win the game. If he does this he'll be a hero. He won't though.

 

[four_or_six]

Good close match, more of the same please.

The Aussie bowlers did well there, they held their nerve when we were throwing the bat.

 

[Pizzorno]

Aust to win by 4 runs

Stewards Enquiry!

Not a bad effort from Wright and the bowlers but wtf were the actual batsmen doing? And of course the obligatory comment from me after every ODI we lose this summer (ie, all of them); Unlucky Clarke, we've got the Urn.
