Australia v West Indies, 3rd ODI, Canberra, 6 February, 2013

So, Aus 2-0 up after an easy one then a bit of a battle. What next? Windies thrashing Aus?

The Manuka track is usually very flat, so Aus will have to bowl and bat well.

Pivotal, like a seesaw subframe.

300 is usually par at Manuka.

why is it being played in Canberra?...why did Perth get 2 matches?

CA COARIAB?

Perth is so far from everywhere else, they feel they'd better play two matches whilst they're there.

Perhaps Darwin and Cairns should have got some ODIs as well.

Skully - or anywhere it seems...they certainly have proved they dont know how to organise a decent funeral for Bernie

speaking of bernie - wonder if Fudge will be booted...also Midge the dud has looked very down market compared to Fork and Midge the koo...will he get a bit of the rotation treatment..

Uber koala is clearly no longer protected - he has been sacked again for the GCS

FFS, they've dropped Khawaja again and yet retained that BBB (Big Bash Bully) Finch?? Talk about double standards.

Khawaja might be thinking about qualifying for Pakistan.

Uber K is entitled to feel a bit dirty...called in umpteen times when someone breaks a fingernail and then fired again

Well, he did'nt exactly cover himself in glory.

He is usually getting one innings to prove himself. Played one innings against Sri Lanka, got run out, but pulled off a great run out himself (and before he was dropped last time he was told to work on his fielding...he clearly has) as Aus won and was dropped for the next game. Then in this series he was not out in the first game, and fell to a brilliant catch in the second. Then he's dropped for an out of form poster boy for the third match. It stinks.

The guy's confidence must be shot. England proved in the 90s that creating a culture where players are always looking over their shoulder and feeling pressure because one bad game could mean they're dropped is a lousy way to go about things.

So Watto straight back in, and Weed dropping back to 7, I imagine.

Conjecture on the wireless has Doh replacing Fork on a flat deck. Depending on the management's itchy rotation trigger finger, the XI would then be...

Pie
Twatto
Con
Pup
Beetle
Weed
Yoody
Midge
Koo
Qunt
Doh

Given George is a ranga, maybe we could shorten Beetle to Beet.

Aus wins the toss and bats. Fork rightly retains his spot. Dicing and Doh miss out.

So they dont play him in the shield game so he can not play in a JAMODI ...FFS

Nice early off drive from Twat, then almost spoons a similar shot to mid-off.

White flat deck.

And already Brain Jayshaw is waxing lyrical about the Twat's form. FMD.

And with that he smashes one through Point for 4.

James Brayshaw already wanking himself into a frenzy over Shane Watson. You just know he's going to get out now.

LOL snap.

Pie off the mark with a nice strike through midwicket.

And the Brain has just blown in the commbox over a Twat straight drive. 0-24.

0-41 in 7.

300 par.
