CRICKET General Cricket Discussion - 2023/24

I just want to say if we don’t chase this we have to beat England to make the Semi’s. We are in a bit of a pickle.

 

[Fernando]

Can't see us chasing this, they all seem off their game and frustrated

I think it’s Nathan Ellis we need in there but Sams works as well.

Yeah good point, I really rate Ellis at the death.

 

[Sproj]

I reckon Aussies are in a good position if they can keep it under 200 with these last two balls, it has been a decent fightback by the bowlers not aided but some of the worst fielding of all time.

 

[Sproj]

Well Australia is chasing 201, yuck.

 

[Fitzy]

I dare say World Cup is over. In the wrong group to be dropping a game.

These openers have to many demons to think rationally about their batting. They aren’t going to score enough in the power play for the chase to be a remote possibility.

LOL

This lot couldn’t hit water if they fell out of a boat.

Fun fact : NZ hasn’t won a game of cricket in any format in Australia for 10 years..

Surely they won one in the World Cup. But it’s possible they played them all in NZ.

Yep, I think the final was their only trip here

 

[Sproj]

Don't give up yet, just need two or three bats to fire and this side is definitely capable.

 

[Fitzy]

I don’t like Ian but he is exactly right about Smith and his role.

 

[Fitzy]

It’s game over.

 

[BroncsFan]

Typical Australian run chase.

They get put under an inch of pressure and they collapse

 

[Bull Shark]

Despite that, I fully expect Australia to be 4-50 in this chase

Nearly there
