WACA looks like an absolute goat track.

Embarrassing outfield condition

WACA looks like an absolute goat track.

Embarrassing outfield condition

Looks horrible. Too busy installing inclusive toilets with no urinals.

 

[FKASC]

Hayley Matthews decent cricketer

 

[Ilkka Sinisalo]

Shame Wyllie didn’t get the century as well. Shouldered arms to a good delivery that took out the top of middle.

Should be a long, hot day for the Vics in the field tomorrow. Hardie, Philippe and Turner should hopefully be able to cut loose to build a big lead before declaring.

 

[Carbine Chaos]

Yeah making the 90s and getting out like that has a feel of Jim from American Pie about it.

NZ going to start their WC campaign with a win over England ?

MCC member expelled for Lord's Ashes Test confrontation

The Marylebone Cricket Club hands out its punishment following the ugly incident that saw Australian players abused during the second men's Ashes Test at Lord’s in July.

While I'm glad they've been punished I'd like to know the findings so I can properly prepare my whinges and trolling for the next Ashes series when the British press inevitably complain about Australian crowds.

England's WC defence starting in the worst way possible. They will lose a heap of NRR the same way NZ ruined our T20WC last year.

With each team playing several hundred games in the group stage, NRR isn't as important as in the T20 WC

Slightly odd choice for MOTM

Slightly odd choice for MOTM

Wonder if anybody has ever made 150 plus before and not gotten the MOTM?

Wonder if anybody has ever made 150 plus before and not gotten the MOTM?

In ODIs, twice, as far as I can tell. Though in both instances another batsman made a bigger score.

Slightly odd choice for MOTM

Awarded off the back of WC century by the youngest Kiwi I expect. Seems reasonable in that context I think, given the cakewalk the chase turned out to be.

 

[Ilkka Sinisalo]

Jayden Goodwin needs to get a move on or get out.

 

[FKASC]

Bring Stobo in

 

[Dazzler9]

We'll probably bat out the session for a 200ish lead before inserting them. 4 sessions to bowl them out, could be tough going.

 

[RookiePick]

Draw looking the strong favourite.

WA with more to be happy about in the wash up and very early doors in terms of the shield.

 

[Ilkka Sinisalo]

Perfect time for some Ashton Turner Overdrive.

 

[Ilkka Sinisalo]

Rocchiccioli does pretty well to tie down one end and take some wickets considering that the backup test spinner went 1/141 at near 4.5 runs per over.

 

[InTheWings]

Hey all,

Watching the crocket from the WACA for the first time this season. Does anyone have any info as to why the WACA surface looks so patchy? Normally the WACA surface is pristine.

 

[InTheWings]

Rocchiccioli bowled so well that session. It will be interesting to see his development this season.

 

[RookiePick]

WA might force a result. Great work to have them 3 down at stumps

Well .....that's convinced me to get on England to win!

 

[Truckosaurus]

Yeah, he's definitely going to live to regret that. Mitch has probably already had it made into a t-shirt.
