I had a nano-nap after watching poor cricket only to be woken up for meds to watch Starkey bowl everywhere except where he should....geez

 

[Nutz]

Does anyone agree we would have played better if Nathan Lyons were playing. He's missed for sure.

 

[This Year?]

Getting the treatment it deserves.

 

[This Year?]

lol. Get your pies here!

 

[TheParraboy]

We are going down, and it ain’t to funky town…

 

[This Year?]

That's more like it.

 

[This Year?]

Smart review only because it halts momentum.

*edit* omg he's out!

Great captaincy by bringing him on.

 

[This Year?]

Zampa the destroyer!

 

[This Year?]

Now bring in Starc to clean up the tail

 

[This Year?]

Well deserved wicket Haze.

 

[This Year?]

Great stuff.
classic spinner wicket.
Set it up beautifully too.

 

[This Year?]

cmon Pakistan, get to 300 so 10 more kits go to grassroots cricket.

 

[This Year?]

Haydos you mincer. You're embarrassing.
We are behind India and New Zealand by quite a stretch.

 

[This Year?]

10 more kits to grassrpots cricket.
Well done.

 

[This Year?]

What a f**ked way to get out.

 

[This Year?]

Congrats Straya. Even after 30 overs I wasn't confident. It felt like the lower order of Pakistan threw their wickets away, but Zampa and Haze steadied the ship after Stoinis made the crucial breakthroughs.

Good win in the end. Great bowling from Hazlewood and Zampa.
Need to get the middle order batting on track.

Mixed feelings about this one. I thought the bowling from Stark was crap but Hazo and Zampa got the job done.
I agree with you about the batting. After a good start by the openers the middle order was rubbish. Being on top early by a country mile the mid order should have just pushed for singles until the end with wickets in hand and a low run chase.
We seem to have everything at our disposal these days with trainers, coaches etc and the basics aren't getting any better.
Fielding crap too in recent games, a big worry.

Two games today and both should be humdingers.

The Netherlands v Sri Lanka

England v South Africa.

 

[TheParraboy]

We are in the top 4

We will remain there if SA beat the spirit of global cricket men?
