*Official* Match 20 - Sri Lanka v Australia

[Sylvester]

Smith! Made that look way too easy.

 

[Burgey]

What a smoking catch. Fair ball too

 

[JBH001]

Catch!

Well, it comes down to Sanga and Mahela as it was always likely to.

 

[SirBloody Idiot]

Oh that's a magnificent catch

 

[social]

The need to rest Tait after his two-over spell just eases some of the pressure on SL, surely he can manage a couple more overs in his opening spell without it taking too much out of him.

Dont think they "need" to - just better off bowling him at full bore in 4 spells rather than 2

Tharanga gone, Tait back on?

 

[Sylvester]

Geez Lee is certainly pushing it with the no ball line.

 

[Daemon]

Catch of the tournament so far?

 

[Debris]

Sanga and Kallis are the best players in the world IMO

Sachin's great but those guys dont look like getting out

Except when they do.

 

[TumTum]

Smith the specialist fielder!

 

[Noble One]

I don't think anyone has ever taking more smoking catches than Steve Smith after 17 ODI's. It is freaky how often he is placed in the situation of having to make a ripping catch and he pulls it off.

 

[Burgey]

That profile pic isn't the most flattering of Mahela.

Just saying.

 

[Woodster]

Lee's got lucky there, short and wide should have flashed to the boundary but Tharanga failed to get on top it and Smith took an excellent catch. Timed his jump perfectly, and has looked very sharp in the field today, as have Australia on the whole. Trust me after watching England in the field in this tournament, these Australians look very sharp in comparison.

 

[Woodster]

Catch of the tournament so far?

No, far from it, but a very well judged catch.

 

[Burgey]

Argh!! Second slip there and it's deep poo.

Our offside ring field is probably the best in the world tbh though. It's just stupidly strong even without Symonds.

Well could say it evens out, Lee bowls a good one that would have gone straight to 2nd slip.

If they don't need to, it's a strange decision to take him out of the attack with SL on the back foot, the ball coming out beautifully for him, the SL captain (and best batsman) just finding his way, give him a couple more to try and make real inroads into SL's line-up.

 

[Spark]

And there goes another. Hmmm....

 

[Daemon]

No, far from it, but a very well judged catch.

Haven't watched alot of the games, but what beats this? Please don't say munafs catch

Should demand a second slip though tbf.
