NathanQP Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 According to commentator on radio today's Australia v NZ ODI in Canberra is Australia's 28th ODI this year with another on Friday. Sri Lanka next in line with 19.ETA: Australia have won 15 of them and at 1/213 after 36 with Warner on 119 and Smith 65 it's going to be 16 Is that maybe why the Test side is so poor because they focus too much on ODI's 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although being arrogant, moaning shites they deserve to lose. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Savage Henry Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 England clearly have good players to utilise, just need to find the right formula He'll go in at 4, I reckon, when everyone is fit. England have the makings of a significantly less flakey top order. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bearwithme Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 Moeen and Jennings have gone, England 246 for 4. India putting on the pressure now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmothecat Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 Good sign. England top order when all are fully fit could look good in the next year or so.CookHameedJenningsRoot 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bearwithme Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 288-5 at COP. The Indian spinners (who are very good) are already having success. Could England regret not picking 3 spinners for this match (or not having the right ones in the squad)? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmothecat Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 Interesting that of the 5 most recent England batsmen to score a century on debut, 4 were born in South Africa. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bearwithme Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 England 400 all out, a very decent score. Now we'll see how the bowling goes and whether they've selected the right attack. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 With Cook off the field Joe Root stuck himself on for a bowl. And takes two wickets in two overs. India 307-6. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 Kohli dropped by Rashid, difficult chance but still a chance nonetheless. Kohli is now the leading Test run scorer this year, having played 12 innings less than second placed Joe Root. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
