Cricket: International Discussion Thread

India 77/3 in the 18th.

Good to see Nathan Lyon in their IX. He is frugal in economy and seems to eke out a wicket or two. Zampa is a wicket-taker, but he is expensive.
 
Australia are going to struggle to contain the Indians. Zampa is expensive again. Stoinis and Coulter-Nile expensive too. Maxwell should bowl his full 10. At least, he has a good appreciation of conditions from IPL.
 
Virat Kohli with another century and CricInfo shows his average as 60.00 ... we could only dream of such a phenom.
 
This is the thing about India. If Kohli fails, India often battle. He scored 116 today with the highest scores 46 and 21.
 
Australia threw this one away... Last 5 overs: 24 runs, 4 wkts

AUS 242-all out

India won by 8 runs

This is India's 500th ODI win

Domestic teams from Scotland, Ireland and the Netherlands will take part in a new European T20 league, which will debut later this year.
Each territory will provide two teams for a group stage followed by semi-finals and a final, with the event running from 30 August to 22 September.
The teams will have a minimum of nine domestic players and a maximum of seven overseas players in their squads.
On matchday, at least six of the 11 will be domestic players.
Organisers and sponsors have negotiated an initial 10-year agreement for the tournament.
"The chance to play alongside some of the best in the business will provide a great opportunity for our players to learn and develop their own skill-set as we strive to achieve full membership and climb the ICC team rankings," said Cricket Scotland chief executive Malcolm Cannon.
Cricket Ireland counterpart Warren Deutrom added: "We are very excited that what has essentially been an 18-month project in planning is across the line."
