easy win coming up OR or a nail biting finish going either way?

So you’re calling an easy win to Aus or a close win or close loss for Aus?
Inspiring predictions.

 

[Wizardman]

No. Every once in a while KP says something informative. Gets lost amongst the shouting though.

In the test series, I found him at least tolerable. Tonight.....f**k me...lol.

Big captains knock from Warner coming up. He wants the ODI job.

Is this Ish merkin the footy fan that works for the Commonwealth???

f**king stupid ad. Try and promote that the call centres are in Australia but they still use an Indian bloke.

Had a couple too many red cordials before commentating tonight.

I think we will win easily..

 

[Eelectrica]

Now it starts raining. Are we gonna get to bat?

 

[Mr Angry]

is it on tv?

 

[ANTiLAG]

He fails. And you can see here how pivotal 6th drop is to a batting line up.

I find this ironic given where CDG typically bats in tests and most equal so far in his odi career with 5th drop; given all the praise his innings in this t20 is getting.

But #8 in t20 is less vital in t20 than odi. CDG bats higher in t20 due to his higher sr and Santners lack of big hitting. But still ironic nevertheless.

 

[TheParraboy]

oh no Duckworth lewis

we will need 95 runs off 8 overs

 

[Iafeta]

Seems fair @TheParraboy

Happy for CDG TBH. NZC took its sweet time to entrust him to be in the team. There's always been a school of thought he's an Eden Park 2 flat track bully. I genuinely feel he's a good bat. Yes he's a hitter, but technically he's quite a good bat.

I hope Boof is rested and this interview it doesn't take too much out of him.

 

[TheParraboy]

Wonder if they will ask Boof about Jakes catching??

 

[Wizardman]

Lol....Lehmann dodged that Billy Stanlake question like a complete dickhead

 

[hineyrulz]

Wonder if they will ask Boof about Jakes catching??

I'd be more worried about that shit mo.

 

[Wizardman]

Stanlake basically bowls four overs and fields in the outfield for about 90 minutes.....they would have training sessions more intense than that. Very precious and stupid decision by CA and not good for the young bowlers development and confidence.

More rain FFS!!
