    That was worth a review given it was spinning and we REALLY needed more runs from Latham...

    Might not have lost the review but no chance of overturning the decision.

    @No-Quarter No doubt I'm talking out my arse, ( I can't even quote the bail dislodging law)

    Was a pissy stumping decision though, IMO

    Yep.
    We’ve been made to look very very ordinary very very quickly.

    On the plus side, none of the other teams are as good as India, so I think we can still go deep into the business end of the WC.

    Yeah and England beat us last time they were here.

    Those two teams are miles ahead of the rest at the moment. Though when Aus field a full strength side they'll be right up there as well.

    Maybe Australia aren't as far off the pace as they seemed a couple of weeks ago...

    CdG caught on the boundary, and Ian Smith nailed it ‘there was an air of predictably about that’

    Neesham>CdG

    At least Neesham can play the ‘nudge it around for a few overs’ game, as well as clear the rope.

    These last two performances are sooo bloody disappointing, we haven’t even put up a fight.

    in modern limited over cricket, who gives a fuck about the run rate until it gets to 10/over. like literally, we didn't have to do anything stupid for another 10 or so overs.
    could've noodled it around for 10 overs and just scored 40-45.
    we've been made to look real average in these two games

    Mark Richardson calling it right - we look bamboozled by spinners.
    We've always looked bamboozled by half-decent spin.

    Are we that guy in club cricket who has all the gear and nice clean whites. He's keen as and a really nice guy for a nuffy. His technique looks ok in the nets but, while he gives it his all, he is worth fuck all runs and the odd helpful 18 not out keeps him turning up?

    Is that us? Look pretty good but do fuck all when it counts?

    This morning I thought we'd find out how good we are today - big match, good pressure.

    Fuck....

    Monday's big eh?

    You lot are negative nellies. Nicholls can easily get a big century and there is enough batting left to support him.

    And bracewell. Boult has a test match 50 after all (I think?)

    The Gunner WASP says we are a 0.5% chance to win.

    Those odds aren’t high enough to make me want to miss out on some much needed sleep, so I’m out.

    Bracewell is the key now.

    So long as the remaining batsmen can support him we're still a chance.
