2019 WC - Warm up matches

[Hutty1986]

If smith stays in these last two, we'll get about 300. Probably 50 or so short tbh.
Didn't take Smiffy long to show why he's the world's best batsman.

Someone's umpiring license should be revoked.

One of the WORST 3rd umpiring decisions I've ever seen. Clearly a bump ball.

Nevertheless, fantastic innings from Smith and hopefully will take this form when the tournament begins.

 

[Mr Spock!]

Wtf.

Hopefully they work out this third Umpire nonsense. No way Smith was out.

Ball clearly hit into the pitch back to the bowler.

Thank God it's only a warm-up game so it counts for nothing, but hopefully this decision doesn't set the tone for more shocking officiating like that when the tournament begins on Thursday.

Joel Wilson needs to be sent to OPSM for the first available appointment this coming week.

Imagine if that happened in a few days time. That would be horrific. As bad as the one Nathan Lyon got away with a few years back.

Smith drops a sitter wtf

They were saying 262 is the average batting first, so 300 was probably par, maybe a little better. Was enough to get us a win anyway

No one really destroyed the attack, except for Butler and a little cameo by Carey.

Smith was outstanding considering it wasn’t a boundary type ground (ie not a small ground)

LOL at team India

 

[_snafu_]

Team India is no match for Kane Bradmanson and Ross Ponsford.

Dhoni Masterclass

Is he the Mathew Wade of the WC we all crave, except he can’t bowl like the nugget and not as devastating with the bat

 

[AlwaysGreen]

I reckon the Windies are gunna go all out attack with their batting going by that warm up game. Could be magic or tragic but are definitely a dark horse

How dare you.

Admiral Nugget > OId man Dhoni

Shai Hope is better than a smokey for top run scorer...he's outstanding, in great form, and will get a great chance in that Windies lineup...
