Cricket World Cup Discussion

The SA batting has slowly been descending into shit house territory ever since Smith and Kallis retired, now Faf is their only decent batsman, and even he is seriously overrated. I actually respect Amla for continuing to play, he's an absolute shadow of his former self and is still trying to put in for his country, destroying his record in the process.

Woohoo at the WI sending us in. Hopefully they think this is a t20.

Faf isn't that impressive at ODI, SA only has one world class bat - de Kock.
 
Who would of thought Coulter-Nile would be the one to get us out of the shit lol!
 
A good recovery but I don’t think it will be enough
 
Well...controversy!

Gayle given out and reviewed twice, overturned.

On the third one, he is given out umpire's call BUT the ball before was a HUGE uncalled front foot no ball. Like, Starc overstepped by about a foot and a half, that's horrible umpiring.

Steve Smith showed us last night why he is still a gun. He won that game for us by showing patience and rebuilding an innings around the lower order. It’s something we badly missed from him in the past year. Maxwells shot second ball is further proof he should bat lower
 
Big game this.

I think this is the best XI we can field personally, glad we've got Lyon & Behrendorff in.

Finch (c), Warner, Khawaja, Smith, Maxwell, Stoinis, Carey (wk), Cummins, Starc, Lyon, Behrendorff

It would be interesting to see them through Wade in the mix, especially after the massive innings he had the other day
 
Would have been a good toss to win and send the Poms in.

Looks a bit of a greentop
 
What a start for Australia! This partnership almost brings a tear to my eye [emoji16]
 
Poor finish from Australia, missing out on at least 30-40 runs there.
It would be scary to see what Maxi could do if he hung around longer then 15-20 balls

That’s the problem though, Australia only have Maxwell to rely on as a late overs hitter. That was why I was so pro-Turner being in the side.

M.Marsh can smash them around the park when in form.. dare I say it, and you also get the opinion of throwing him the ball for a few overs.
Wade is also another one that had found form over the last few months.
Dan Christian could of been an interesting inclusion.
Stoinis has been disappointing for mine

I would put Christian in the T20 World Cup squad because we don’t have many young all rounders that are half decent
