2nd Match, Pool A: Australia v England - AUSTRALIA WON BY 111 RUNS

[TheParraboy]

In the fair dinkum stakes, Australia should wipe the floor with the poms

Hopefully it gets ugly, mighty might ugly

Australia by 70 runs or 4 wickets

DO I dare say it, BRING ON THE BIG SHOW :sarcasm:


kickoff 2.30pm aussie eastern time

Bit of speculation if Clarke will play in this one

He wont

Boof said he wont be risked for this one.

 

[Dutchy]

No need for him to play against the minnows.

 

[vvvrulz]

I don't like or rate England, but Australia shouldn't underestimate them.
They're more than capable of pulling off an upset here.

Need to see off Jimmy, smash the other pie chuckers though. I expect to win by 40-50 runs.

Hads hitting the winning runs

Hads hitting the winning runs

Jeez, I am so hoping we don't get down to Haddin, we will be in deep rubbish if that is the case.How about Davey and Fat Boy Finch hitting the runs!

 

[Twizzle]

Hads would anchor the ship

 

[lockyno1]

Or get out...or run Marsh out when he is smacking the ball all over the place. I hope Haddin is not needed to bat!

Feel for Bailey

this could be his one and only game in the world cup provided Clarke comes back next game and no one else gets injured. They may though rest a player or two during our 4rd match which is mid week v Afghanistan, so he plays in that one

 

[Rabbits20]

I'm expecting another 25-30 from Watto today. The usual!

A half century from the big show would be nice.

 

[Rabbits20]

I feel the 2 big wickets in the England team are Bell and Root.

Get them out and England are in big trouble.

I hope that Bailey can make a half century today.

It's been quite a while since he has made one.

 

[TheParraboy]

Poms win toss and decide to bowl, lol


come on boys 300 plus

 

[Rabbits20]

England bowling.

I think it's a good batting pitch even though there was some rain this morning.

I think it's a negative decision from Morgan.

Let's punish them!

Australia Team
DA Warner, AJ Finch, SR Watson, SPD Smith, GJ Bailey*, GJ Maxwell, MR Marsh, BJ Haddin†, MG Johnson, MA Starc, JR Hazlewood


England Team
MM Ali, IR Bell, GS Ballance, JE Root, EJG Morgan*, JWA Taylor, JC Buttler†, CR Woakes, SCJ Broad, JM Anderson, ST Finn



Shit no Bopara, poms half a chance

 

[Rabbits20]

280-290 would be a good score.

England will struggle to chase that.

 

[Rabbits20]

Can't wait for what the atmosphere will look like plus all the noise.

England are hoping we feel the pressure and choke batting 1st. They know that's their best chance.

 

[Snappy]

ah f**k we have to put up with this dimwit20 in the cricket forum too
