[kangaspurs]

Early call, but at this point the SCG crowd numbers could rival a shield match at this point....still a few minutes till it starts though...

Saving money for test series and world cup maybe?

 

[Kangaroos4eva]

I enjoy one day internationals, but l fear its dying out unfortunately due to 20-20's. Test's will be around forever.

 

[gustev]

50 over form is much better spectacle than the 20-20s.

I try and watch the 20-20s, but I just can't get past the fact that everyone thinks its is a hoot/joke (commentators included). Sorry, I know the topic has been done to death....

Seeing it is a dead rubber, should have rested a few, and trialled a few with a view to World Cup positions

Whatever ever happened to the Sth African leggie Adams? What a great action he had - Frog in a Blanket - great description for it.

Is it just me or is Watson slow between the wickets?

He's not that slow, looks it because he's so big but makes good ground.

Yeah he's a massive unit for a cricketer. Would S. Smith be a particularly quick runner then?

Smith has good wheels when he want's to use them. Very good judge of runs so doesn't generally need to rush it.

One thing I've noticed with him is he usually makes his ground comfortably and never has to exert enough effort to the point of breathing heavily after the runs.

 

[DarkPhoenix]

Batting masterclass from Finch.

Du Plessis is a ridiculous fielder.

 

[Flawed Genius]

 

[DarkPhoenix]

Cop that

 

[DarkPhoenix]

Parnell comes on.

"I hope Parnell gets belted".

Four off first ball.
