Australia v England, 5xODIs, 14-28 January, 2018

The BBL chase tactic is to get the runs in 19 overs

The Oz Jamodi tactic seems to be to get the runs in the 53rd over

Smith chewed up too many balls.

England have done this with 3 bowlers as well.

When are we going to switch to multi-format Ashes in the men’s game?

That's about right.

Stoinis goes after a decent knock.

The difference is that one shite 2nd over where they smoked him for 20.

Woods is an impressive JAMODI bowler. Buttler's knock was immense.

Well done England on the series win.

Didn't Ben Stokes used to be in England's ODI team?

Well, I guess they’ve decided there’s no point flying him out to Australia at this stage.

Anyone think Australia can stop a whitewash?

Yeah, I expect England will switch things around a bit now the series is won. Resting Mark Wood before he can injure himself again is the obvious change. Aus will win one of the remaining matches.

Butler receiving a lot of praise, but Woakes was important with the bat too.

Well Smith and co. preferred him to Maxwell so have got what they deserved.

Is there a reason that Nicholarse is wearing pink? Just looks a bit odd.

"Butler receiving a lot of praise, but Woakes was important with the bat too." Couple of important wickets too.


Smith was reasonable: "It got given out, so I had to get off the field, wasn't hitting it very well anyway, gave some other guys a chance and they almost got us home."

Shame the World Cup isn't tomorrow, can't see us carrying this on for another 18 months.

that's the spirit

Woakes was important full stop. It was a tidy spell of bowling to complete an impressive allround performance.

Some Obs

Only Stoinis and the Fink batted at the required run rate.

Seasick does not bat or skipper well in jamodis and should give it away.

Warner and Ima are useless. Warner should be axed.

Nice to see Marsh get his first international wicket of the summer. Cue bnlg to start calling him Oz's version Fat Jack.

You know what you Aussies should really be spitting about ?

We won by just 16 runs ...... 13 of them were wides bowled (we conceded just 2.

Take those 11 extras away, and one more six-hit would have given you the win .....

yep.... they all channelled Bung Lee.

Yup Growls, it was a pretty undisciplined bowling effort.

We have always relied on a fast bowler to take some early poles

Our big three have failed to do that in this series

Not that I particularly GAF but:

- Dwarshuis?
- Ahmed has been the form Aust leggie in the BBL this year
- did they pick the wrong Richardson?

T20 SQUAD: David Warner (c), Aaron Finch (vc), Ashton Agar, Alex Carey, Ben Dwarshuis, Travis Head, Chris Lynn, Glenn Maxwell, Kane Richardson, D'Arcy Short, Billy Stanlake, Marcus Stoinis, Andrew Tye, Adam Zampa.

Maxwell finally back in favour.

Dozen would be unlucky to miss that squad

I'd agree with you if I knew what that was.
