s**t i jinxed us

 

[Tugga27]

That's why I was surprised at Marnus's inclusion to replace Agar, rather than the selectors picking another spinner like they should have.
Marnus has been a good selection. And you will probably see Smith dropped for Head when he is fit.

Doubt they will drop Smith for Labs.

 

[Plugger35]

Inglis gone.

Could there be a twist in the tail?

Probably not, if Sri Lanka had scored another 50 runs it might have been interesting.

 

[Moonwatcher]

The Melbourne Stars will save us ...

 

[HK_Hawk]

Hey, lets throw away another wicket and keep it exciting... farrkk heads

 

[Tugga27]

Ingo just threw away a nice little 60 odd not out.

 

[Moonwatcher]

Stoinknees

 

[Plugger35]

Nice batting there from Stoinies.

 

[Moonwatcher]

Sri Lanka a 0.23% chance to win according to cricinfo.

 

[NYRB]

A bit of a nice confidence builder for Stoinis with this innings.

More chance of me landing on moon than that happening.

Who is this Stoinis you speak of? I think you mean Stoinies.

 

[Moonwatcher]

Scores level. Australia will win their first match of the 2023 WC. The beast has awakened.

 

[Moonwatcher]

Hit a 6.

 

[Moonwatcher]

Thanks

 

[Moonwatcher]

Big Stoin goes bang

 

[NSWCROW]

THWACK

 

[largebus]

Nice way to finish. 130 runs from WA batsmen.

 

[Plugger35]

A nice confidence builder for Inglis, Maxwell and Stonies but they were batting against a BBL level attack tonight apart from Madushanka.

Let's see how they go against Pakistan on Friday, I think that might be a tougher challenge for them.

 

[Moonwatcher]

Only Smith didn't look likely today. That's a good sign.

 

[010203]

That was comfortable enough in the end.

 

[Plugger35]

Australia going past Sri Lanka and the Netherlands on the World Cup table with that win but they are still below Afghanistan and Bangladesh.

 

[Tugga27]

Sri Lanka have nearly given up 800 runs in their first 2 games.

Nice to get the win but will see how we go against a good attack.

 

[Freezin]

Nice to get the win but will see how we go against a good attack.

Thought that question had already been answered after the India game.

Considering how Pakistan imploded v India, the Aust bowlers may have some success v that BBL level batting line up.....though I won't be holding my breath.
