Cricket: International Discussion Thread

again the heat lost the game to themselves.

Stop 2 runs to prevent super over.
Sixers get 2.

Bowl a good over get a low target.
nope, Sixers get 22

ok send in Baz and get more than 22.
oh look they get 15.

Heat have no one to blame but themselves, and a large part of that sits on McCullum. poor bowling choises and bat shot selection in the super over.

well played to the Sixers.
that is the end of me watching BBL this season...
 
Going to take my previous post one step further and compile my ODI XI

1: Warner
2: de Kock (w/k)
3: Kohli (c)
4: de Villiers
5: Miller
6: Maxwell
7: Stokes
8: Jadeja
9: Starc
10: Rabada
11: Tahir

Probably up for debate though...
 
I would love to see a team with Warner and QdK opening:D

I'd do my ankle in run-up of first ball :D

That's quite a form line-up. What I would pay to see this team in action :love:

I cant argue that team at all. but we should make the team for them to play against. how about
1. Gale
2. Amla
3. Khawaja
4. Bairstow
5. MS Dhoni* (wk)
6. Jadhav
7. T.A. Boult
8. Darren Bravo
9 Carlos Brathwaite
10. Zampa
11. S.P. Narine

Swap Gayle for KP and I'll go with that.

You have my approval. KP adds tons more in the consistency column.

Darren Bravo? Perhaps not thinking of his brother Dwayne?

That line-up has potential, but it is too batsmen heavy. Boult and Braithwaite are your only seamers.

I'd drop Zampa for Shakib Al Hasan.

Drop Bravo for Southee.

Thoughts?

Maybe chuck in Steyn if he can stay in one piece of ten overs?
 
I initially had Chris Woakes (England). He would be a good pick. He's bowled really well on those roads in India.
 
I did not put much thought into the list, simply went for players that I liked I knew people would turn the list into something more competative, because the first team selected has all the number ones. best batsmen yup, all 3 of them. bowler? jup all 3 of them. allrounder? check.

and yes I ment the other bravo.

Good call. Forgot about him. On his day, easily as lethal as Warner.
