Lyon has had a great game , 0 & 2 with the bat and 0 for 12 with the ball.
I think General B Scott is chairman of selection.

Murphy's Law will get you big time. He will clean up with 8 wickets in the final innings now that you have said that.

Kuhnemann has got the 2nd spot wrapped up.

Yeah kinda wonder if we put Lyon on ice for it

 

[Samsquanch]

When do we announce our team to WI?
Would be curious who gets picked to go as the spinner/s

I am curious to see if we send any batters

Nah, he's had a good break.

 

[hellas_johnny]

Pretty sure they said the wtc squad is the squad for wi aswell

 

[Hearts to hearts]

My favourite time to watch Australia is when the bowlers are firing - second favourite time is when the tail is wagging. It’s great.

Wait, we have them?!

Only slightly concerning our 2nd highest scorer this innings is our no 9

Matt Hayden is somehow managing to be even more annoying than usual….

The South African keeper looks like Flintoff on meth.

Very underrated button, that mute button

 

[Samsquanch]

Numbers 9 & 11 do ok.

 

[krakouers]

What lead you comfortable with? I want 250 plus but most commentators suggesting we have enough already.

Enough gokangas ?

 

[Hojuman]

282.

Over to you Saffer's.

 

[Lomas]

Still have to look at him….

 

[Sillygit]

At least 70 runs too many for SA

 

[gokangas]

Should be. what do you think?

Been watching the footy but has the pitch flattened right out or something, I mean, Hazlewood putting on 59 for the last really?

The bowling plans weren’t great, batted well.

Sun was out. Seems the batters have done better when they can see the ball. As soon as it was overcast and/or the lights were on the batters struggled.

That said, and this is watching via TV and half a world away... it looked like the Saffers just assumed it would be easy and they did not bowl with any sort of consistent plan. Very much going through the motions it seemed.

Accepted the loss?

 

[Samsquanch]

Accepted the loss?

It's happening!

 

[Lomas]

Has anyone in history got as many wickets in his first couple of overs as Starc has?

 

[SpiderBurton22]

Starc strikes. 1/9
