Australia vs India - ICC World Cup 2015 Semi Final 2 @ SCG 2:30pm 26/03/15

[lewigie]

Watson was fine, Clarke was beyond silly even batting ahead of Haddin for one

Really Clarke shouldve been next in after Johnson. He can't really hit big.

This is the only worry the last time we played at the SCG

Might have actually been a nailbiter if chandimal didn't limp off, it was looking in the balance till then so keeping them to 312 actually flatters us.

 

[Stig O'Hara]

Constantly motored at 5 and a half an over.

Smith outstanding yet again, Finch anchored the innings, bit of a stumble after the final Powerplay, but the lower order hit the gas and we end up with 328.

Gunna take some getting from India, but they certainly have the talent to do it.

Whoever wins this game will win the World Cup.

Watson was fine, Clarke was beyond silly even batting ahead of Haddin for one

Both lost us momentum. But entirely disagree about Watson for the first 10 to 15 balls.

If you mean after Starc I would agree.

 

[BlakeyNoFlakey]

One thing is for sure, India have improved greatly in this tournament.

 

[bffl]

Watson couldn't even score a run a ball at the end. HAHA.

Neither could Clarke or finch.

 

[GROTTO]

Indians paying $3.25 on live odds to get the total.

Massive unders and the bookies are shitting themselves!

Should be 5-1 at least.

LOL. Only a punter would know the odds straight off. They were $3.10 before the match. Its mad to think the odds have changed so little.

You are right should be 5-1. Taking $3.25 is no value.

 

[PuntingFanatic]

India no chance. Not going to chase down this tally against us at home. World Cup semi final in australia defending this total, will Phil hughes in their minds. Not a punchers chance Sally.

That Mitch cameo has the hallmark of being the game-decider unfortunately.

To a degree yes, but Watto was already there, it made zero sense having Clarke come out plod around. I was so thankful when he got out!

 

[CrowAboutIt]

Only 1 team in the world can chase that. It was always going to be tough chasing on this batsman-friendly pitch, but we have the firepower to do it, just need to see off the early overs from Starc.

But they've already batted...

We not silly mate!

 

[PuntingFanatic]

Aussies 1.30 get on

 

[lewigie]

India bowled out all the other teams they've played in the WC, then they finally come up against some talent and fail.

 

[Doss]

Ha. That would have broken 1billion hearts across the world that dropped catch.

I felt a great disturbance in the Force, as if millions billions of voices suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced.

 

[frankrizzo]

ugh bloody brisbane, another storm coming will probably knock the power out when india start their knock.

 

[bffl]

We lost momentum when finch and maxwell both got out quickly.

 

[DT_fanatic]

Cmon RohitSharma!

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Neither could Clarke or finch.

Finch especially, the harder he tried the worse he got!

Ya got buckleys son!

 

[GROTTO]

Aussies 1.30 get on

While taking India at $3.25 is not value, so is $1.30 I wouldnt want to load on those odds.

 

[Sam95]

Sorry 'mate', straya all the way!

Brb gonna get a southern cross tattoo to show I'm a true aussie

 

[LukeParkerno1]

He shouldn't be in the side if he can't bat above Haddin.

You won't get me saying otherwise. Said it before, if Clarke is batting lower than 4 he is useless...I would rather play Bailey, he can tonk!
