Geez Warner is a polarising character.

So are Marshes.

I blame Watson.

Kiwis fear Starc.
Starc is possibly the greatest odi bowler ever, fear is a strong word, but he’s orthodox of everyone’s respect in this format

on a green track he’s f**king terrifying but on these Indian roads he’s going to just end up expensive.
Shane Bond was as good, shame for us his body didn’t hold up.

Different thread, I guess - there are others in the discussion too - but Starc's record is remarkable, might add Trent Boult's is pretty f**king good too, for someone who our clowns viewed as a red ball specialist until the World Cup here

India v Bangladesh.

Come on Tigers!

Bangladesh did win the last game between the 2 teams just a month ago.

Though India were missing $500 million dollars worth of talent (Kohli, Ashwin, Pandya, Bumrah, Kuldeep Yadav, Siraj)

I think Bangladesh shouldn't be classed as minnows, they are an improving side, more like a tiddler.

They are a slow burn they have improved they just haven't had the influx of elite talent a country like Sri Lanka did in the late 90s early 2000s like Murali, Sangakkara, Jayawardene, Jayasurya that made them a genuine threat in world cups.

I still laugh at the fact even though its a different format that since i was born in 1994.

Bangladesh have beaten Australia in tests the same amount of times as the Kiwis which is once each.

When Bangladesh did beat us in that test match it wasn't really a shock either.

We’ve not really been up to it since Hadlee retired 🥹
