Played Trav

Genuinely questioning his continued role as ODI opener was utter insanity

Head with allllll the time in the world to get a double ton here.

Doesn't even take any risks to get there either.

Why not aim higher? Go for the 264

And of course he immediately gets out the very next ball... LOL!

 

[Stefan9]

Would defo throw Brevis the ball and have a look.

Doesn't seem either his provincial or international captains fancy him as a bowler.

 

[Bahseph]

400+ here going to be interesting lol

Workload management is such woke nonsense. Play Ngidi and Burger.

Remember the days when bowlers played 30 ODIs a year? Good times.

We're lucky Hazlewood is even playing this series. Him, Starc and Cummins only seem to play if it's a big tournament. Starc didn't even play in the "Champions trophy"

Is this series 2 new balls or 1?

 

[Spark]

Wait I realised Abbott is playing. Lmao

I think there needs to be slightly better balance tbh. I get that T20 has made ODI cricket the third favourite format for boards etc and I don’t necessarily want the old JAM ODI vibe back where teams played 7 ODIs against each other but full format tours of 3 games of each format would be quite interesting IMO. Pipe dream though.

Two new balls until the 34 over I think.

 

[Kenneth Viljoen]

Australia's highest odi score is still that 434 in 2006 , could be broken here ..Been a brutal batting display

Sorry, it's more important that we squeeze in three more random match fixing franchise T20 leagues

That is one of the worst drops i've ever seen. Absolute lollipop by mahpaka. Marcus Harris territory with this performance.

 

[Starfighter]

Is he here to play the Mick Lewis role?

 

[Spark]

Elite strike management @Spikey

Is he here to play the Mick Lewis role?

Very nearly made that joke when I made that post tbh

 

[Spark]

This is pretty poor by Carey

 

[Bahseph]

Mindsets have changed so much since the 434 game. I remember watching that thinking this is monster hitting and SA are dead and buried, whereas here you feel that there is still a chance( even if unlikely).

 

[Nintendo]

Did green just refuse carey a single? LOL
