India v Australia, 2xT20s + 5xODIs, 25 February - 13 March, 2019

rofl ... Uber Koala motm and mots ... just as well he is crap against spin according to M Waugh.

crowd seems to have evaporated after Coli's speech.

still humour of the broadcast aside, it is worth remembering it is just another jamodi series.

So we won the JAMITT and JAMODI series v Bannies in Bannieville. That's useful.

I imagine Langer will now be insufferable.

Ponting factor.

Team was better off without Bog. Groins had a fair series, showing he is well ahead of his nearest competitor - Reeks FFS.

Off to UAE now. gcspoc and Seasick are due to meet the team there for a chinwag. What good that will do is unknown. 

If both cheats are returned for the WC, two of the current crew will miss out. I doubt Sneaky, Turner or Bog will greet the cheats with great enthusiasm.

3rded Credit where it's due to cbnlg, has go the team playing well in the lead up to the WC.
Still can't shake the feeling a Bookie is involved somewhere .

Thought he was already?

True enough.

Just scooted through the highlights of the Bannie innings. Great spell by Zampa to rip out the Indian middle order.

At 6-132 the Bannies were gaaaawn, but then Bhuvi and Kedar put on 91 to give the Indians a sniff, needing 50 off 4.1 overs. But the ever reliable 2nd came back to remove Bhuvi and it all ended pretty quickly after that.

The Bannie crowd was hilarious. As always, raucous when the Bannie bats were getting runs but completely silent when a wicket fell. Such great sports.

The radio commentary has been side splitting throughout. Should have alerted you guys earlier to it.

Zampa is something of an enigma. Bowls absolute tripe, his stock ball is a slow long hop but he picks up wickets. Can only assume the opposition are so suprised by his shyteness that they get themselves out.

You do worry about whether Zampa can repeat the form on UK wickets now that he looks a certainty to be picked.

He is more persuasive with the white ball than Lyon.

Places up for grabs now. Impressive guys.

I still don't think we'll figure in the Gilly semis, unless Warner and Smith make a massive difference to our batting consistency.

We got lucky with Ooze hitting some form and Dozen pulling an innings for the ages out of his arse.

BTW, what's going on with Groinis's sideburns (or lack there of)...

GriinsRus is a fashionista. Former Vic team mates teased him for the amount of mirror time he took up in the change rooms.

Aye, he's the modern day MEW.

He's a roob in front of and behind the camera.

MTFFTB is such a Qbilly that Hick will bequeath him his surname. MTFFTB exists to make his former opening partner look smarter than a rock.

It's hard to tell who's more tedious on the Fox coverage, MtFTB or Harsha.

MtFTB is such an old tart with his waffle, but Harsha's sycophancy towards Sunny is vomitous.

Harsha on the Bannie radio broadcast I listened to goes into full blown parochial. His mate is positively craxen towards the Bannie team it is so bad it becomes wonderful comedy. The incomprehension they muster when Coli gets out and when the Bannies lost the last three games was high quality gold.

Wish you guys listened to it. Far more entertaining than Foxy.

Aye. Looks like a first time mid-week bookie trying to impress at a metro meet.

Was trawling through some stats and discovered that Aus's 3-2 victory in the recent ODI series was only the 4th time a team has come back from 0-2 down in a 5 match series to win.

Winning a 5 match ODI series after losing first 2 matches:

SAf beat Pak in SAf, Oct 3-12, 2003
BD beat Zim in BD, Jan 20-31, 2005
SAf beat Eng in SAf, Feb 3-14, 2016
Aus beat Ind in Ind, Mar 2-13, 2019

trivia opportunity lost

I know who I blame
