I'm counting the seconds until Warner uses a Manus island sledge.

tbh I don't think Warner has enough awareness to even know what Manus Island is. Also the team sheet I saw on twitter had smith at 3 but I don't know if it was an official thing or not

That was a cracker of an over. Dawlat worked him over.

Haha Warner has started mouthing off already. In fairness he's in the right.

Seams posted:Wait did they really drop Watson or are they just 'resting' him FWIW they've done this the worst possible way. Nothing necessarily wrong with dropping Watson but it had to be Bailey that came in and Marsh making way for Faulkner. Now we have Maxwell at five which puts an absurd amount of pressure on our top four. If they all fail I foresee us getting rolled like in the NZ game quite a bit - that game was a useful instruction as to what will happen if Maxi and Marsh have to come in before 25 overs

I agree but realistically we don't need a huge score to win here unless the bowlers go mental. The side is nowhere near balanced.

Shmoses posted:You'd think they'd target this match for batting practice for him if he was in the long term plans. I think he's gone. They might still add Bailey later, Faulkner might not yet be up to bowling 10 overs so want to have Marsh in there still

The current pair seem to be treating the attack with some respect, they're certainly not carting it around, they'll probably wait for the first bowing change for that.

You are probably short a batsman but on the other hand you have Haddin 7, Faulkner 8, Johnson 9.

I'm not talking about just today, if this is the team we're settling on we aren't going to win the WC. It won't hurt us today but it will in the long run unless the plan is to drop Marsh for Bailey.

Man, Shane Warne and his fellating of Shane Watson is really annoying.

Pakistan need to get a hurry on. NRR is likely to be very important for them, West Indies and Ireland so letting the UAE bat out their overs will hurt them.

Good to hear the Australian commentators know literally nothing about the Afghan players to the extent where they don't even mention them. It's almost like they are not even playing this game. This is an international feed right?

Richie isn't the captain any more, I doubt they still use the same training methods.

If Warner doesn't get 200 here they should drop him.

Surprisingly, it's only the C9 commentators that are talking up Watson. Fleming pretty much said Watson's a poo poo oval office.

I'm legitimately triggered by the fact that the only mention of the Afghans is how honoured and lucky they should feel to play this great team on this great pitch that they've never seen the likes of before.

It's so weird that you can't listen to a cricket game without hearing 5 anecdotes about Craig Mcdermot. Who the gently caress gives a poo poo about Craig Mcdermot.
