Aye

Warner fails yet again. When was the last time he made a score in an ODI?

by Big Dog Fri 26 Jan 2018, 07:56

...and ShyT comes in. You can just about call it 2 fer.

Yep

Ideal situation for Smith. He can just bat like it's a Test match.

by taipan Fri 26 Jan 2018, 08:18

Can do it it singles.

Happy Australia Day (belatedly) to you lot.

Didn't know beigels were a staple on Australia Day, but the Poms offered you up plenty.

by Big Dog Fri 26 Jan 2018, 08:32

Smith gone. Good job. He was batting like my grandmother.

by Big Dog Fri 26 Jan 2018, 08:32

England are well in this.

FFS, why couldn't Smith be this shit in the ashes?

He is obviously missing Anderson and Broad

Brainless batting from Aust. 5 down 60 needed.

England probably favourites and will be if Head goes.

She's good at hitting across the line?

by PeterCS Fri 26 Jan 2018, 09:25

Five down, but should still be okay for Oz, if they keep their heads. Under 60 to go.

by PeterCS Fri 26 Jan 2018, 09:26

If they keep their Head.

by PeterCS Fri 26 Jan 2018, 09:27

BJ gets a chancey boundary. That may be the omen.

by Red Fri 26 Jan 2018, 09:29

England have kept chipping away, but duck being on their batting menu, they were doomed from the start.

by Red Fri 26 Jan 2018, 10:16

Aussies have made heavy weather of this. Cummins effected that run out.

Just get over the line in a dead rubber.

by Fred Nerk Fri 26 Jan 2018, 10:33

Nice knock by Dunder....agree that Warner and White are like Horrie at 3am after a coffee too many

ie they have to go

by embee Fri 26 Jan 2018, 11:14

After they replace ShyT there isnt anything left to replace GCS

It's quite ironic that he was tipped in the early days to be primarily forging a career in limited overs, but he's been poor in ODIs for some time now.

who has been poor?

by MoH Fri 26 Jan 2018, 13:03

I think Red means Warner.

Didn't White get to #1 in the ODI batting rankings at one point?

by MoH Fri 26 Jan 2018, 13:10

Looks like I was well out on that, White's highest ranking was 20.

Warner hasn't been doing too well since the Champions Trophy. Just one hundred and one fifty. A bit of a golden period before that though, nine hundreds in about a year.
