Dre Russ bowling well when he gets the chance. Nearly took 3 wickets that over.
Andre Russell might be one of the pivotal allrounders in this tournament, seems to be able to bridge the gap between T20 & ODIs.

Windies need to sort their over playing height wides though, leaking quite a few which could be fatal unless they get through the tail quickly.

They’re -literally - throwing this away.
Decent catch from Cottrell there, they are making it hard for themslves though & this Smith, Carey & Coulter-Nile recovery should be enough for the Aussies. They will need one of Gayle or Hope to get them off to a flyer as they thrive on confidence. Still unreal that a shit decision that DRS would have overturned, & some unfortunate weather got them in ahead of Scotland

Fair play to Chris Gayle, he is reminding everyone to just enjoy the game. Sure he might have a different opinion if it goes down to squeaky bum time for qualification but way more refreshing than Virat Kohlis permascowl if an Umpire dares to defy his instruction.

Coulter-Nile going crazy
Excellent knock, this might be an excellent game as long as the Windies don't get too excited. Erwin Lewis might be key if he can anchor while everyone else smacks it around.

Gayle lucky to survive, given out caught behind but immediately reviewed it, turns out the noise was the ball clipping the edge of the stumps.

He's just been given lbw but reviewing again...
Was a shocker of a decision, impact was outside leg stump, it was missing by miles.

Not a great five minutes for the umpire there.
I can understand the first one, there was a definite noise like a ball hitting the bat, and you wouldn't expect someone bowling that quick to hit the stumps and the bails not to move, but that lbw call was an appalling decision.
