Bracken and Hilfy need to learn how to bowl at the death waist high full tosses and half trackers wont do it.
Thank god we had Hopes to show them how to do it.
Good to see White get a bowl.
How dare Ponting come in and say they were slack in the field when he was joking and carrying on until the end when the bowlers tried to lose the game. The players go off the Captains attitide and the way you were acting the game was won with 25 overs to go.
I hope they haven't shattered Warner's confidence. Hope he just goes back to NSW, works his way into the Shield team and learns a bit more about when to bash and when to survive. He seems confused about what his role is in one day cricket, best way to work that out is to ply your trade in the 4 day game where you face more variety of situations.
I think your cricket terminology needs a bit of tweaking Long. A "Diamond Duck" can affect any batsman in the order accept the batsman who faces the very first ball of play. By definition, a diamond duck is achieved when the batsman has been dimissed without facing a ball. This would obviously occur when such a bastman is run out before he or she faces a ball.
