The Warm-Ups...

Noble One

International Vice-Captain
I don't want Hopes as our 5th bowling option, and yet here is selected as our 4th bowling option.

Terrible T20 bowler. Poor selection for mine. *Hopes takes 5/10*

Yeah, Warner should open ahead of Haddin, no question. Watson hitting 'em.
Sadly the Double Wa's will not open today.:)I don't get why Clarke and Hopes always get picked the just aren't good at the format.They are just specialist fielders .

Edit: Actually I get why Clarke was chosen but I still I would prefer if he got kept out of the side.

Not Terrible
Bowling besides Mortaza has been dire from Bangladesh. Though Mortaza's fielding is cringeworthy.
 

Nate

You'll Never Walk Alone
Anyone who watched the Pakistan series (anyone?) knew this was coming. He's in incredible hitting form at the moment.

International Debutant
This should be our opening pair in all limited overs contests for the foreseeable future.

They are smashing spinners :) (Yeah I know it is just bangaladesh but still I like to see it) not a bad start for these two.

Edit: By not bad I mean awesome.Yay fifty for Watson.

Still would rather see Warner playing, but Haddins 6 straight down the ground off Shakib was a gorgeous stroke.

Watson gone. 52 off 22.

Symonds is in...


I'm following on CricInfo. The English are watching it on Sky.
Find it strange they aren't covering it given:

a) They presumably have the rights to this game and/or could have got them pretty cheap as part of the WC package.
b) They don't need to actually send anyone out there or anything; they could just take Sky's coverage.
c) Australia are playing.
d) They're currently showing old Superbikes replays on one of their sports channels.
