Jeepers Warner not looking good

Few St George's crosses in the crowd

St Yaruba for tonight

 

[Westend]

massive innings for stoinis this

Jeepers Warner not looking good

He defs hasn't but when your batting partners are collapsing at the other end of the pitch you have to play it safe

 

[Moonwatcher]

well you reap what you sow when you pick players who are in no form

Warner marsh maxi all in recent poor form

Have to play our best team. We won the last WC we played in with that strategy.

St Yaruba for tonight

Given this isn't gonna be a high scoring world cup, could Smith or labuschagne have been good inclusions for Australia to anchor the innings. Having head Warner marsh at one end bringing power and smith or labuschagne ticking away over the length of the inning at the other.

Needs to stop playing the tuck shot around the body he always does... gets him out so often

We were knocked out in the group stage of the last World Cup.

Not often I'd be advocating for Smith or Smith's son to play t20, but you make a very good point.

 

[ep2018]

We should honestly still win even if we only score 120

yeah but you knew it was coming

players with lack of form and cricket being picked on low slow decks

 

[icyflakes]

We will. Oman's batting is not up to scratch and our bowlers are best in class.

On pitches like those in the ipl no chance they'd get picked but on these pitches their value on their wicket and ability to continue ticking the score over even just with singles could be handy.

If I was an Omani batsman this doesn't look like the sort of pitch I'd want to be facing Mitch Starc on.

Inglis needs to be in the middle order on these low slow decks

 

[Aussie pie]

The only redeeming feature of T20s is usually the hitting. Looks like this WC is going to be low scoring and boring.

need 160

Minnow vs Minnow is where its at. Oman vs Namibia was fantastic the other day. The Windies decks are too volatile for high scoring consistently.

Another was the England v Scotland game until the rain helped the Poms

yeah but is not and the conditions are different

low slow wickets you pick the team to suit the conditions

I have seen enough of Aussie cricket that they will struggle in these conditions

 

[Rich the babe Evans]

**** me Warner... I know it's hard to play on, but inventing shorts is not the go at the moment. Take it deep
