I thought to myself "Should I wait for him to get those last two runs before I hit post? Nahhh"

Maxi goin hard here at the death

Big show in the form of his life, great heading into the world cup

 

[Hansta]

Warner century in the IPL

 

[Hansta]

This is my ODI 11 for the world cup

Finch (c)
Warner
Khawaja
Smith
Maxwell
Handscomb (wk)
Stoinis
Cummins
Starc
Zampa
Hazlewood


Imo handscomb is a good enough wk. He keeps for his state. He is good enough. This strengthens our batting. Carey can be the reserve

I've got the same XI. Reserves should be: SMarsh, Carey, NCN, Short

NZ have named their world cup squad. No surprises

Guptill
Nicholls
Williamson
Taylor
Latham (wk)
Neesham
de Grandhomme
Santner
Southee
Ferguson
Boult

Blundell
Sodhi
Henry
Munro


Very strong squad. Considering chucking a few bucks on them, they're at a pretty tasty price.

 

[Squash the Berries!]

Aussies1-2 Warner out lbw didn’t review but was out first ball and pommies didn’t review. Bancroft, Siddle, Patterson playing.

 

[Squash the Berries!]

Bancroft out 2-17. In trouble early.

 

[Haslerhasworms]

Bancroft never comfortable.
Need these 2 getting to lunch or we could be in serious trouble

 

[coach]

Imagine the dirty poms with World Cup and ashes
Will live of it for century’s

 

[Squash the Berries!]

Big trouble 3-35 Smith & Head need to stand up and take the attack to the Poms to change the momentum.

 

[GA45]

Siddle in the team. Vomit

 

[Flanagun]

Steve Smith is not human! What a legend.

 

[Squash the Berries!]

Siddle in the team. Vomit

Siddle helps save Australia with an important 44.

But he is in the team for his bowling, so lets see what we don't and the selectors do.

Great innings by Smith sticking it up those pommies with their booing & sandpaper.

Booing on reaching 100, a new low.

Siddle is 34 year old trundler who steams in at 125 kms. Seriously new low by Langer and Hohns

Great knock by Smith the guy is quite simply the best since Bradman. Warner the gronk cost us 12 months of his prime but glad Smithy is back. Superstar

I didn't agree with the Siddle selection either, but he has picked up 27 wickets in his last 7 first class games for Essex - so he's obviously able to do something with the Duke ball.

Cricket Australia should be hanging their heads in shame up on their high horses after seeing Smith's innings

 

[Dognacious]

How much have we missed Smith? As usual he was the backbone of the innings. Warner can bat, but he isnt nearly as consistant as Smith, and tbh is more suited to 20/20 or ODIs. You watch now i said that, he will probably come out and hit a ton next innings lol.

Starc took ten in his last test. Could you imagine the damage starc and Hazlewood could do in 7 first class games in crappy England where the decks actually do something. He’s a trundler that shouldn’t be sniffing the playing 12 let alone playing.

Watch him take a bagful now.

I just think the treatment of those two is disgraceful along with Burns and Patterson.

Smith is the best batter since Bradman. He’s a superstar

Siddle’s been bowling very well in county cricket. He’s familiar with and good in English conditions. I think he’ll do well and prove a lot of people wrong.
