2nd T20I - Australia vs England

[kia ora storm]

These commentators are torture...James Brayshaw is a shocker.

 

[Big Pete]

C'mon boys, three good overs that's all we ask!

 

[aussies1st]

Surely we can't blow this.

 

[Big Pete]

Another wicket to Johnson.

Woakes the hero from the other night in...

C'mon Aussies!

 

[Ladmate]

Australia have a 100% chance of winning.

 

[Big Pete]

Wouldn't be too confident just yet.

Tait (especially) and Lee can go for runs if White chooses to go with both of them.

Luke Wright set his reserve price at $400k in the IPL auction, no wonder he had no takers

 

[Dragon]

Well done Tait you f*ckwit

 

[Big Pete]

F**k Tait had a good over going there...

Big last over coming up.

 

[aussies1st]

6 off 1 ball, underarm time!

 

[aussies1st]

Lee holds his nerve, that could have been his WC spot if he lost that.

 

[Big Pete]

Phew!

That Woakes is a bloody something at this level isn't he?

 

[Danish]

Bresnan stuffed that by not coming back for 2 on the 2nd last ball. There was a run in it and it wasn't his call either with Woakes running to the danger end.

Had he come back I think they might have won or at least sent it to a super over.

Bout time we finally won something

 

[aqua_duck]

Why does Tait keep getting the full 4 overs even going at 10 an over yet Smith can't even get 1 over

 

[Tonearm Terrorwrist]

Phew!

That Woakes is a bloody something at this level isn't he?

lol you're easily impressed the bloke hits one 6 and you're off like Bill Lawry.

 

[Big Pete]

...and won a game on his debut.

But yeah, definitely had my Lawry voice going.

EDIT: That probably sounds sarcastic but I was being honest, looking back I did go off, guess I was just happy to see the Aussies win something.

Why does Tait keep getting the full 4 overs even going at 10 an over yet Smith can't even get 1 over

because captain Victorian is trying to keep the myth in the team

 

[Big Pete]

because captain Victorian is trying to keep the myth in the team

It's the only way it can be explained.

What's the point in having Hussey, Smith and O'Keefe when D.Huss is the only player getting a decent bowl?

Not to mention having Tait, Lee and Johnson...

I still get the feeling Cricket Australia really doesn't give two s**ts and select the Vics and a couple of young Blues players to keep everybody happy. Team looks like one big compromise.

 

[Eelementary]

I thought Tait played OK, that wide notwithstanding. His first over was expensive, but he was a tad unlucky, too - White's fields were a little...Odd...

That said, Smith should have gotten a bowl.

And well done, Lee - awesome bowling. Watto was a star, too.

 

[Collingwood Storm]

Good innings by Finch, the only batsman from either team who could do anything once the first 6 overs were gone.

WTF were Dussey and Smith doing with the bat?

White got a shocker, too high and missing leg according to Sky Sports pommie coverage.

White captained well with bringing fielders inside the circle and make batsman hit down the ground in the air on a slow pitch. The only thing he should have done was bowl Dussey out and give Tait just the 3 overs.

Good move not bowling SOK or Smith as that would have played into the 2 lefties hands.
