Why they sent up Agar? He's blocking
Shaun Marsh doing his usual batting too slowly act. Australia’s whole line up is scoring too slow and they have no where near enough hitters throughout the side. Their ceiling for best possible performance is therefore incredibly low with the bat for this era. I find it funny Australia drop a player with a career average of 32 with a 121 strike rate that isn’t even in bad nick in the series, can bowl and can field. Australia has a very scrambled mind as to building a team. Their only positive here is they have picked Lyon who is clearly their best available bowler.
Both players should be trying to hit a boundary every ball considering the scoreboard. A lot of players bat for their average however which is poor in international cricket
Stat padding milking him around. That’s a brutal reality. Australia are miles short of where they should be right now with this many wickets in hand

He’s saying it’s banging leg, not brushing it. In real terms.
More on Marsh... he is proving he has power and skill, but is so scared to use it. Just then hits a big six then the next two balls is scared to swing at the ball anywhere near as much. Someone needs to get him out of the mentality of preserving his wicket, his career strike rate is laughably low in this format. The problem is even if he hits a century he’s struggling to get up to a run a ball which isn’t good enough at this level
He’s just blasted another six. He has the power and ability to smash the ball as hard as anyone in the world. It’s so frustrating to me he’s so scared to use his power and skill and blatantly bats for his average for ages in every innings. He should have been playing like this over half an hour ago

Marsh is making Rashid is biatchh
Series is dead now. I don’t think he would be bowling if it was still alive (apart from chance of whitewash)

Why you wouldn't take a risk earlier on and target Root's bowling is beyond me.

They had 2 set batsmen in when he come on to bowl and hadn't lost a wicket yet.
Neither is enough to win. Australia should have been aiming for 340 minimum
Also, don't pick that trash line up. Maxwell should have been in there
