England VS Australia (5 ODIs)

[legend166]

Thread stickied and I changed the title since that's all that's left for the tour now.

For those interested, games 1, 2 and 4 start at the friendly time of 7:45pm AEST. The other two are 11pm starts.

Essex commentary team were banging on about Cummins today as were the Sky team the other day. Gawd, I hope he bowls well when the real games start.

Telling me! If he puts it in the right spot, he's deadly. He needs to be spot on in the series, especially in the English conditions. Hope he has a huge one for us.

It's on GEM, is it not??

 

[Dont be a lemon]

It is... after the NRL broadcast.

I haven't been this excited about a ODI series in years. I'm not sure why, probably because it's the poms and they're up and about, just asking to be chopped down. C'mon Aussie.

 

[Nuke Fremantle]

We don't need this series. I want Cummins to remain a complete unknown to English batsmen until 2013.

 

[WhiteCap]

Personally speaking not a fan of playing Australia. Think it may take a little shine away from the Ashes.

Cannot wait for the SA series. Am I right in thinking whoever wins that, will be No.1 in the world?

 

[Grimwood]

Think Australia will go well in this series, certainly as far as bowlers are concerned anyway. I'll be interested to see how Steve Smith goes - Ashes style or IPL style?

 

[Selective Retention]

Why the hell would 9 show the rugby ffs.

I guess I will have to settle for the footy on SEVEN.

 

[Tassieboy]

Nah, hasn't hit that.

 

[lewigie]

Was the noise hitting the trousers, bit hard to tell at that speed though.

 

[Tassieboy]

*Groan*

Is ABC covering?

 

[Tassieboy]

Is ABC covering?

After the footy I think.

 

[ioppolo]

Live coverage in Perth My night just got made.

 

[Selective Retention]

Switch over and first ball I see is Cummins smash Bopara in the helmet. Great stuff.

 

[Ducky Tie]

Ravi Bopara-knows how to play a bouncer.

 

[dajesmac]

England trotting along but if they are still within reaching distance of a very tough total. We need to keep taking wickets and get into their lower order.

Cummins good so far. Lee was great.

jesus Christ...I've been watching this on a shitty stream for the last couple of hours and I just find out it's in glorious 1080p on telly

 

[imadodgyumpire]

I don't have foxtel. This game/series is a nice bonus.

 

[Torz]

Surely we have a better 'spinner' (I use the term loosely) than Doherty? Even Lyon for limited overs would be more potent.

Edit: Of course... Trott misses a straight ball a minute later.

 

[Plugger35]

Only just realised this game is being shown live on GEM, to think I could have been watching this instead of that s**t Hawthorn v Carlton game.

Anyway it looks like England are set for around 270-280 unless we can cause a collapse.

Morgan's a handy ODI player but I don't know much about this Bedwetter chap.
