2nd ODI: Australia v India at Adelaide Jan 15th 2019 - INDIA WIN BY 6 WICKETS

[mave]

Carey obviously a better bloke than Short

 

[TheParraboy]

We probably need to bat out of the crease, India too disciplined with their length (and line)

 

[Fangs]

Alex Carey now has 8 ODIs, with an average of 30 and a SR of of 77

But he gets tapped to open while Darcy Short gets dropped and has been "thoroughly disappointing" for his 4 games with a similar average

No idea how Carey is getting an opportunity to open with the other players available. And its almost a 0% chance he will open during the World Cup. Very strange decision.

I thought the aussie way was when you get dropped you play out of your skin for another chance. Doesn't appear that way

Nah mate.

Like Mark Waugh keeps saying we just need to plant the front dog, hit down the ground, and bomb it long.

Oh and also have a top six made up entirely of once in a generation talents.

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Wadey is available

 

[TheParraboy]

Wadey is available

Should be fast tracked for the 3rd ODI ON Friday TBH...

 

[Bazal]

Wadey is available

Oh he's once in a generation alright....and thank f**k

 

[TheParraboy]

Siraj, good bowler for the aussies...

 

[Bazal]

60 off the first 15 overs lads! That 1987 World Cup is ours for the taking...

 

[mave]

Haha....fox running a favourite moment from the 80's during the lunch break.

Today's run rate is the hot tip.

 

[TheParraboy]

why do all the indian bowlers wearing arm stockings?

SMarsh should demand they be removed

 

[TheParraboy]

we be really screwed without Siraj

To hide the fact that they chuck. Just like Nathan Lyon and his long sleeves....

 

[Eelectrica]

Unless they make Handscombe the WK, Carey stays.
Finch will find form again... Sometime around October, but it'll happen.

Short has to come into the team though, drop Carey down the order since they're not going to drop the new Captain. The selectors don't want to admit they made a big mistake appointing Finch as captain after all.

Poor old Khawaja or Handscombe make way for Short so as we can keep captain 6 and out and Smarsh has selector immunity or they drop Maxwell again for Finch's lack of runs.

 

[TheParraboy]

oh no run out

 

[Bazal]

A failure of the basics. Rolling along ok, why risk a run to Indias best fielder?

 

[hineyrulz]

FFS!! Another run out. They do the basics so poorly.

Lol imagine Darsh thinking he was half as good as Deano

Just more poor game awareness, been the problem all summer.
