2023 ICC Men's Cricket World Cup Game 14 Australia v Sri Lanka 16/10 1900hrs @ Ekana Sports City

[Voice of the G]

I went to bed having given up. 0/110, bagged the crap out of everything, then woke up thinking what a brilliant reverse jinx....haha.

You were not on your own bagging our team on BF in the 1st 20 overs, last night lol.

 

[Cleavy]

so rest Haze for Abbott next game?

 

[Westend]

Just replace Green he’s not going to play anyway and it should be Kuhermann as Lyon isn’t even fit anyway

Green provides cover for the batting and bowling and he has the best set of hands in the team...and I expect him to come in later on in the tournament . Its a long tournament Luke and I fully expect the bowlers not to get through and there will be changes ..green provides that insurance

 

[Westend]

Head makes such the difference in this team. Smith in touchy form is a big problem for selection. Too good to leave out based on possibilities

Head comes back the fall guy will be marnus marsh down to three

Warner
head
Marsh
Smith
Inglis
Maxwell
Green/Stoinis

That for me is the strongest top seven

 

[Westend]

No its against the Pakis .need our strongest bowling line up and the game is on Friday so they have time to recover

I expect the team to stay the same and changes to come when we play the minnows Ala Netherlands

Good work Jim

I agree though I was fuming at the start

Abbott can do that, don’t see the point we need a second spinner badly

Smith is a number 3 in a ODI. Yes he’s barely got a run but he’s a better 3 than Marsh easily in this form

Permanently. In these conditions is Abbott giving you less with the ball? He can bat and field better

people here are salivating at the prospect of side losing right now because they disagree with skippers political views, its pretty much ruining game threads now as you cant even have serious discussion about side due to these people.

Abbott can do that, don’t see the point we need a second spinner badly

Green can bat anywhere from 1 to 11 if need be plus he can open the bowling or bowl 5th change if required

Abbott is a bowling allrounder who's role is to replace one of the quicks and I can only see him batting highest of Seven

Both are very good young players who provide balance to the squad if there is an an injury or loss of form..thats why they are there... and I guarantee both will see some playing time come this World Cup. Its a very long tournament and I cannot see us playing the big three quicks every game ..they the selectors will change it up and most likely it will be against the minnow teams ....but it could be next game against the Pakistan...Abbot might come in for Hazelwood who looks already tired

Both deserve a spot in the squad IMO

I agree with the second spinner and its hurting us.. the selectors stuffed up by picking the two keepers and not making there mind up...basically they should of stuck with one or the other and picked a spinner to take one of the keepers spot

Permanently ??? no Luke he will just get cooked

You have to have 2 recognised keepers in the squad in case one gets injured or becomes unavailable on the eve of a match.
