Bats like he's got concrete shoes. Watching is not good for the soul

Lazy as foot work

Here we go. The two most out of form bats we have when we’re 3 - 46

since we already in finals i reckon we are tanking our batting this innings to test out our winning with a low total bowling tactics

Yeah bit of a dead rubber but you don’t want to flirt with the form.

And TBH the deliveries that got finch and warner were first rate. That would have knocked over most batters.

Smith was just being a dyckhead. They set that trap for him and he fell for it

this commentary is ****en shithouse

spent the entire innings talking about the 2015 nz vs aus world cup games

no one cares any more, we owned nz just move on campaigners

 

[tony__montana]

These two bat for another 6-7 overs and we’ll end up with 250+.

How good is Carey?

In the highlights for when Starc got out Williamson

Carey is sh*te, that is why GWS delisted him.

It’s about all he’s good for. Useless as teets on a bull

 

[captain blood 17]

Awesome win last night. We are progressing beautifully. And yes, it amuses me that the poms are sitting 5th with games against the Indians and sheep rooters to come.

I love good sport's journalism...and this is a great piece of writing...

Why we can’t stop watching Mitchell Starc’s dismissal of Ben Stokes | Geoff Lemon

The Australian’s yorker against England at the World Cup was a rare blend of beauty, mechanics and context – a work of art

Excellent read,

Never thought I’d go into any game hoping India would win but here we are. Essentially an elimination final for England.

How bloody good is Bumrah!!

Absolute nightmare of a bowler to face. Super smart and can change it up big time

 

[Meteoric Rise]

Anyone care to argue a case for this Eng v Ind match being on the level? It was about as genuine as a $5 Rolex.

Do you go see a movie with friends and afterwards point out all the plot inconsistencies and continuity fails and completely destroy any enjoyment they may have got from the movie?

Haha. Yes as it happens, I often get complaints about my criticism of movies. Usually from women...

You guys don't seem to know what is happening. I am in constant contact with several other experienced full time cricket watchers both here in the UK and also one back in Australia, and I can tell you we are all of one voice on this issue so it is not like I am a rogue conspiracy theorist on cricket corruption. I am sorry if it bursts your bubble but you really are better off knowing. Why I piped up about this match in particular is because it would have been obvious even to the most casual observer India made no real effort to win it. Scoring 1 for 72 in the last ten overs of their innings when 104 were needed for victory does not leave any room for doubt on that score. And did you get the explanations from the Indian camp as to why Mahendra "take it deep" Dhoni made no apparent effort to win? Astoundingly, even commentators were murmuring about it.
