Good innings, 9 runs and getting an inform player out.

 

[DarkPhoenix]

Faulkner.

*man love intensifies*

 

[Mr Reliable]

Haddin you absolute bellend.

As well as playing like a drunken sailor, I think he might have been sledging that young kid at the opening ceremony (or whatever it's called)? Top bloke!

Faulkner goes OK though.

Haddin is a penis.

Bailey is in scintillating form too.

Fair enough to check that one, but far out I'm getting them sick of checking the front foot on every 2nd wicket Australia take for no reason. They never do it to anyone else so why are they focusing on us?

It's like sledging, racial abuse policies etc - strictly enforced standards when judging Australia but loosely adhered to guidelines when it comes to anyone else.

Completely agree.

The s**t that Warner copped when he asked Shami to speak English (when he was being sledged) was ridiculous. From what was said Shami said some absolutely disgusting stuff but it was Warner who copped it for asking him to say it in English.

Maxwell is mentally deficient.

You know, this post should be reposted every Glenn Maxwell innings.

No matter how well he's going, you know he's always looking for exciting and unorthodox ways to *#*# up his innings.

I'm still yet to see why it was racist for Warner to say to Shami to speak English.

Genuine bemusement.

Same, read quite a few of the comments on some of the articles and the general response was that Warner was a bogan idiot and should of kept his mouth shut.

I think it was perfectly acceptable for him to ask a bloke who was sledging him to do it in a language they both understood.

 

[naturally north]

Well there ya have it, final of the series who makes runs and takes wickets?

Maxwell, he's smart.

Speaking off smart Martina won her first title in years, but no one should ever underestimate the cunning Hingis.....

 

[DarkPhoenix]

Good Win.

 

[TooUglyForFugly]

Third biggest runs victory against them.

Warner needs to do the same as binga lee he learnt hindi so he could really give it to em

Maybe Warner should learn Hindi, then he wouldn't look like such a bogan idiot arguing with someone who is bilingual. Just saying.

New Zealand's K.Williamson is making runs for fun atm... Another Century in the odi today. He's now ranked 6th in Tests.. If i liked a bet id put money on him for most runs at the W.C...

Him and McCallum (the better one, not the hack brother) have been dominating for NZ lately. Boult and Southee have been bowling well. Vettori though must be on his last legs, he was deplorable in the big bash.

 

[Kangaroos4eva]

Aus is 257-5 39 overs gone, pm for stream.

 

[Kangaroos4eva]

53 ball century for maxwell.

 

[LuvtheKangas]

^ beat me to it. Hope it shuts up a few of the Maxwell bashers.

Yeah, he plays bad shots to get out. So do plenty of batsmen, every game. He is a rare talent and will win us international games off his own bat.

 

[LuvtheKangas]

He's now 122 off 57 (yes, 22 off the next 4 balls).

Geezus go Maxwell yeah i dont care if he goes out with a stupid shot if he's making runs..

 

[TooUglyForFugly]

Oh dear.

 

[TooUglyForFugly]

Curse that this be only a warm up match.
