Don't think this team is about that tbh. Unless he was 280+ a couple of overs before BMac was considering, a message may go out to him.

Depends on how confident BMac is about bowling Sri Lanka out or not, if he doesn't think he can for under 400 - then Williamson may be in with a shot.

Dodgy as ****, morally reprehensible and something that is now rightfully banned, but there was never any serious suggestion that they intentionally underperformed.

But Lillee still makes your ATG Australian team right?

I dont want to be too critical after the way these guys have saved the match but theres no reason at all not to be trying to smash every ball right now. Get a 400 lead in the next five overs, declare then bowl Sri Lanka out.

they've been going over 4 an over. There's still plenty of time in the match. And they'll be a bit buggered.

They'd put a plaque on the path at the Basin Reserve to commemorate both McCullum's 300 and his record 6th wicket partnership with Watling. Do we get another plaque if that 6th wicket partnership is exceeded?

You'd imagine they'd start throwing the bat if that was the case though - unless they're happy with the runs they have and it's now just a timing thing. They're still working singles, waiting for the bad balls, etc.

Amateurs vs Professionals.

Well known though that many amateurs made money betting on/against themselves. Keith Miller was one that was said to have done it. All started from Boxers doing it for themselves - there is a lot of suggestion that Sugar Ray Robinson only lost when he had money on his opponent.

Trumper was not a professional. Love your posting. Keep it up.

FWIW they've been going at 5 an over in 2nd gear with that tactic for the last 10 overs. They could pick it up a little but the fields are defensive and SL aren't interested. Screw them.

So we should decrease our chances to win by a couple of % points to spite a team. Strong.
