Actually not a bad score

Aus still favourites but not more so than they were at the toss

 

[Gob]

Wtf is this bloke bowling

 

[Howe_zat]

So it's looking like a pretty bad score now tbf

 

[Gob]

Lol Aus can definitely beat Pak/nz in the semis. Could be in the finals which would be amusing given this is a pretty average outfit

 

[Gob]

Really liking Watto so far. Should make him do a master class on reviewing

 

[smash84]

Aus seem to have come a long way since being crushed by Eng earlier. They're beginning to look dangerous

It's the Windies that are making them look good lol

They've benefited from playing the two weakest teams in the group last, when those sides have had nothing to play for. And I don't think they were ever as bad as they looked against England; who were very good, but it was also one of those days when everything went against Australia.

Hey Kanye west

 

[Gob]

So what's the extent SA need to win?

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Wasn't Warner like a right-handed batsman before?

This might be true, but they look much better too. They will chase this down with more than 4 overs to spare.

 

[Gob]

They can beat Nz/Pak. Eng and India less so

 

[Gnske]

Can Gayle's career just end already

 

[Spark]

I'm sure SA are loving WI's "efforts" here...

 

[morgieb]

That Marsh dismissal, lmao

 

[duffer]

That Marsh dismissal, lmao

Written in the stars

 

[Gnske]

And of course it ends with a man who should have retired years ago not being agile enough to take a catch at leg slip.

 

[Heboric]

That was pathetic, I will never complain about my team ever after watching this

Honestly if I was SA I would be lowkey pissed about watching that. Obviously it was a very long shot and Aus were clearly the better side, but that was close to unprofessional by the end.
