3rd ODI: India v Australia at Ranchi March 8th 2019

[WaznTheGreat]

Good win in the end because in the end we won

Australia beat Kholi.

Eat a dk Kohli.

Looks like all the bowlers chipped in.

Man of the match performance coming up from le finisher MS Dhoni

57 not out off 59 balls.
21 off 45 balls before that.
Hits the winning runs in the 50th over with a glorious four which doesn’t quite carry

26 off 42, one out of three ain’t bad.

Kohli is a machine though, just insane. Indian team look surprisingly brittle without him at the crease. I doubt Australia can win the series but at least we may have a contest, they’re going to regret Stoinplod costing them the last one.

 

[AlwaysGreen]

If India keep playing Dhawan we're in with a big chance.

 

[vvvrulz]

Rohit is turning into a lazy bastard, some average fielding cost 10-15 runs as well.

No real benchmark teams in ODI cricket right now.

Imagine how much we would be smashing these merkins if we had Admiral Wadey???

I like the cut of your jib.

I like the cut of your jib.

Not as much as you like the cut of the a admirals jib, and Clay Preists.

I confess, I do like the finer things in life: The Admiral, Clay Priest, Royce Hunt and the Haynetrain/2 weeks scissor show.

Bonus point for playing a Marsh and still winning.

Ms Wade Vs Ms Dhoni. It's the battle the world wants to see, is crying out to see. Perhaps in the World cup? Probably not a stadium in the world big enough for such an event.

Better performance, but the batting lineup doesn’t have the right balance.

Stoinis needs to come in higher, he’s a good batsmen but too slow to get going to be a middle order batsmen.

Can’t play both Handscomb & Carey.

And Shaun Marsh’s running between wickets is dire.

I would say we can't play Marsh either. If he's not top 3 he's too slow as well. Turner could be a better fit down the order

Yeah despite Shaun Marsh scoring runs in ODI, he’s too old school to have an impact. Steve Smith plays that anchor role better, should be a straight swap.
