Cricket: International Discussion Thread

England need 385 runs , 4.28 runs per over required :unsure: I doubt it they will try ..

Rob has an update for us from the venue: Lovely morning here in Birmingham. The sun is shining and the weather is set fair for the whole day. Looks a good day for batting.

#15: Root has taken another review, Wilson has to overturn his decision again. Got to feel for the umpire here, matters getting worse for him. :X3:

When you're in a hole, stop digging. The umpires probably don't know how to :p
 
Dadrev is getting nervous already: "Somebody must tell Roy that this is not an ODI *concerned Aussie fan*"

2 balls later:

Lyon to Roy, OUT, oh my word... Bowled on the charge! Lyon has his first and Roy is sent packing after making a complete misjudgment of which ball to attack! Maybe the ODI mindset was the problem... Gallumphed down and aimed a mighty heave over the leg side but he was nowhere near the pitch, left a massive gap for the ball to turn through, and then turned on his heel abruptly, as if realising his mistake
JJ Roy b Lyon 28 (58b 4x4 0x6) SR: 48.27

...but wait there's more. Denly is in on it now too :D
 
Roy doesn't belong in a test side...let alone opening.

I was hoping Carey would get into the Aussie test side...he looked very Hussey-like at the world cup.
 
An outstanding session for Australia and they are well and truly bossing this game now. That man, Nathan Lyon is growing in stature every time he turns up on the park.
 
Oh heck! This is a damned choke! Abominable, I tell you!
 
I cant believe England actually tried to chase down this total. should have just tried to survive the day.
