1st ODI: Australia v India at SCG Jan 12th 2019 - AUSTRALIA WON BY 34 RUNS

This is our problem. Khawaja and Smarsh play themselves in and got out when we need these guys to stick around.

Need guys like Lynn and Short to perform at this level

Wouldn't mind seeing that Wetherald giving a go at the top

 

[Wizardman]

Still, Marsh, Khawaja and Handscomb have done their job (just). Stonis and Maxwell coming in at about the right time with a decent enough platform. It's Finch and Carey who failed today.

Stoinis and Maxwell....they fill me with confidence....lol

 

[Fangs]

Commentators surprisingly agreeable today.

Maxwell wasted down the order. And not sure he will be used with the ball much either.

Marsh and Khawaja haven't done their job - one of them needed to go on and score a hundred, accelerating their run rate as their innings progressed.

Getting out after sucking up 151 balls between them is either selfish, shit or both.

Stoinis and Maxwell....they fill me with confidence....lol

I still remember Stonis destroying us on debut, coming in with 5 down for not many. Nearly stole the match, but ran out of partners.

Whether they perform, or not, they've got enough of a platform to do it.

Can’t afford two innings like that in this day and age.

 

[_snafu_]

I thought the test series was over?

Yeah, I hear you...that's why I added 'just'. But Khawaja came in at 1-8 with the captain trudging off. Marsh wasn't far behind. They have a long tail. I definitely think they improved things pretty remarkably.

Ah yes Warnie, always take the opportunity to fap about Junior

 

[Eelectrica]

Need to pick things up now. Handscombe to stick around, pick up singles, odd boundary where possible, Stoinis can show his levers.

 

[_snafu_]

Finchy craving food, so attacking his nails...

He got out early because he couldn’t wait for the innings break to hit the buffet.

 

[vvvrulz]

Australia playing beautifully for stumps here

 

[Eelectrica]

Stoinis playing for stumps.

Ahh that explains winning the toss and batting first...

 

[Fangs]

Who is paying Stoinis here?

 

[Eelectrica]

Handscombe is the only one to maintain a decent SR.

 

[TIGER14]

Finally a patient, solid Test Match innings by Australia.
Too bad it's during a f**king ODI

 

[vvvrulz]

Warnie making some sense though, this is utterly geniused from Stoinis

 

[Meth]

Here we go?

 

[Eelectrica]

Stoinis found his levers.
