Real danger man.

I love the bloke, though.

He's got that but of merkin about him that all great bats have.

Fantastic player and even better to watch.

I love that he's arrogant, and a bit of a prick, but he's amazing.

Get a clue, they all came in under pressure because of how slow he was batting. His SR was 69, which was bad enough but then after chewing up all them balls he got out when we needed a solid partnership. Don't mind the go slow if you bat all the way through and go hard at the end but when he was dismissed was almost as bad as his SR.

lol can't agree with that, even with Finch's slow innings they were in a strong position thanks to Smith. Certainly not 'under pressure', the run rate was healthy and they were primed for 350.

Maxwell, Smith, Clarke (and Finch) all played terrible strokes from there.
But Finch didn't cause the collapse.

Edge would have been good

Bowled Haze. Come on, need another wicket here.

Is any batsmen's "weak zone" not just outside off stump?

We'll have to agree to disagree, a SR of 69 was just not good enough and the timing of his wicket was just as bad

Great bowling Haze.

I agree his SR was poor and his dismissal was atrocious, but I think the impact is a bit exaggerated here.

But agree to disagree

 

[aqua_duck]

Massive wicket

On an unrelated note - there are some seriously cute girls in the crowd.

 

[Tommy Smith]

Awful shot!!!

Game over.

What a chokey innings from the choker.

This'll be a great final.

 

[vvvrulz]

Kohli..... horrible shot!! Absolute rubbish innings. Eat some humble pie you prick.

Game on!
