WC 10th Match: Australia v West Indies - Nottingham 6/6/19 (Aust won by 15 runs)

[Dave's mate]

Looking at the way we finished, some of those shots from Maxwell and Stoinis even more unforgiveable.

More rests on the selectors ever picking those bums

I'd be all in favour of the boundary going back to the fence, but it will never happen since ropes became mandatory in Australia in 2001, let alone the definition of a 'boundary' changing in the MCC laws of the game.

yeh, remembering the good old days with the sightscreens within the boundary of the field. If the ball hit the sightscreen on the full, it was still only a four, even if it was evidently going for six.

Fun Fact:

all our 10 dismissals were catches

3rd time is a charm

Party's over Chris!

...and don't blush on your way back to the dressing room.

Would love to see some of that ball tracking overlayed with the vision. Seemed much straighter than that.

You should be Max Kruger's replacement!

Shut those miserable poms up.

Shut those miserable poms up.

can't imagine what it'll be like during the Ashes. It's going to be irritating to listen to the crowd if Smithy can score a double ton or more. Mute button on the remote will work the oracle

Starc takes the first 5 for of the Cup as Australia win by 15 runs

 

[TheParraboy]

Easy win in the end

That Starc over where he got Braithwaite and Holder was frigging huge

2 from 2 from the current world champs

 

[Eelectrica]

Just saw the score. We won? Thank you Smith, NCN and Starc with some great bowling it looks like.

 

[Wizardman]

Some dicks in this forum didn't even want Smith in the squad, one in particular.

When a side is two down for virtually nothing, there is still not a player on the planet I'd rather have coming in than Steve Smith. If he was not picked, Australia lose that game.

Big effort to win that coming from where they were at the start.

A little controversy with Gayle being given out on what should have been a free hit after the umpire missed a massive no ball. Oh well. It's obviously a bad piece of umpiring, but it's not the Aussies fault and its not like Gayle was working with the understanding that he had a free hit.

Nice knock by Coulter Nile.

 

[The Mad Hatter]

I hope the Poms keep booing.

 

[Mr Spock!]

Hopefully khwaja learns how to play the short stuff in the next couple of days.

 

[Mr Spock!]

Double post.
