*Official* Australia limited overs tour of Scotland and England 2024

King Kane

International Regular
It doesn't look like 315 will be enough, that extra 50 runs England should have scored would be handy right now.

Brook doesn't look all that convincing as captain, he should be making some field changes, putting a few fielders in the stands might help.

Surprised Jofra hasn't bowled again, isn't he supposed to be England's strike bowler, if he isn't bowling now then he shouldn't be playing,

England's bowling plan to Head seems to be just hope he mis-hits one and even that didn't work, he just mis-hit one and they still couldn't catch it.

I just learned that mishit gets a swear filter here, are Americans running this joint.

And just to demoralize England further, Australia did it without Maxwell, Inglis, Starc & Hazlewood who should all be back next game

I got that wrong, still if Head had gone early might have been different.

Yet as others say our batting isn't what it was, people always talked about our strike-rate at our best, but how you get big scores is with 2 or 3 getting big innings. We don't have that ATM, and Hain not being in the side is criminal.

scores between 20-50 don't cut it in the top 5, you've got to dominate and go on with it.

England were missing some good players too like Buttler and Root.

Do Stokes, Flintoff and Botham still play ODIs? They could be handy.

Looks a fairly standard sort of centre wicket practice for our fellas. Sort of score I expected really.

Hopefully next time we have to get out of second gear, just to entertain the fans. Maybe bring in some different net bowlers to test our batsmen.

Prior to this innings, Labuschagne's only struck 7 sixes in 47 innings, he's now hit back-to-back sixes here. Something's switched.
Different format and all, but he is the most important batsman in the Aus side heading into this test summer, so hopefully he Carrie’s on with the sort of form

Surprised to see the score, thought it was going to be a big advantage to bat first on a slow, turning pitch and would be one of those games where batting second sucked. Clearly not

WG Grace was a big out
