Or his finger hurt, Morgan on for the winning runs or a collapse for 30

Well, Root's there and has now made his requisite 50, so I'm betting on the latter

Well, we can't lose now!

And there we go. We've successfully won a game in Australia. Only five matches too late.

Can we use the term 'comprehensive victory'?

not far of the highest score either [ in the ashes]
I often wonder what would happen if they just approached a test like a ODI and slogged- lose but in a more entertaining way is my guess

What were the reasons that Glenn Maxwell and Nathan “Gary” Lyon weren’t in the squad?
Posted 1 day ago # -
Very good and good interviews (on C9) Smith not sure what just happened and England working to plan.

Maxwell has disappointed too many times in the past I think. Either that or he's shat in Steve Smith's coffee.
Garry has never been their ODI spinner for any length of time. I've never understood why ODI teams don't pick the best test bowlers (e.g. us with Jimmy and Broad), but this seems to follow the same pattern.

Yes, even the commentators weren't too moronic this time (though I think they're all doing BBL)

Comprehensive win. Use crictime for streaming it is class, no need for BT. Apart from Crictime needs to show something of course

Probably/maybe it's that you need different skills as a 50/20 over bowler, certainly on tour like this throwing Anderson and Broard in as the elder statesmen of a team and then asking them to take 20 wickets in NZ is too much. Maybe they will feature in the world cup at some point.as for Crictime etc. I'd suspect even the tightest of viewers would pay the $30(au) for 365 days access over dodgy streams

yes, but interchangeably with "two wickets from capitulation"Posted 1 day ago # -

Well, I've just heard Sky News here in Australia and the poor crims are referring to it as "a stunning run chase".
I guess they don't know about our 444/3 vs Pakistan a couple of years ago

First ever ODI chase above 300 at the MCG - that surprises me!

I’m totally indifferent to this - so we can win a Mickey Mouse game. Brilliant. I actually prefer 20-20 to the formulaic dirge that is fifty over cricket. I know they’ve tried to jazz it up, but the middle overs of an ODI are total crap. Not as bad as the bad old days of Michael Bevan getting a 60-odd every game with four boundaries in it, just tapping out to the sweepers and running single after single, but still awful to watch.

Really? Watched the world cup down here and enjoyed it, this was a good game too with England taking a really attacking style that was good to watch. Neither side would call it micky mouse either they were both taking it very seriously.

Whilst my default position on ODIs would be to agree with Danny, I too would agree that last night's was pretty good viewing

They've charged him:

20-20 is a joke - it's degenerated into little more than a six-hitting contest.

what does that mean for Stokes then?
Posted 15 hours ago # -
Most obviously it means he'll presumably be dropped from the squad for the NZ Tests, given there's no chance of the police case being resolved in the near future. I presume he was included in that on the hope they might not charge him at all, in which case disciplinary cricketing disciplinary stuff could also be resolved. I'm guessing we might not see Stokes in an England shirt this summer now?
Posted 15 hours ago # -
Yeah assume he will be dropped, once a sentence is passed (a quick scan of the cps guidelines say it's probably going to be community service of some sort) the ecb can decide what to do, given how many games he has missed I'd expect to see him playing somewhere soon after. It may however impact playing the ipl

Sounds like he's quite a lucky boy given the reports were that ABH was a distinct possibility. I guess the CPS have decided that they wouldn't make that stick in court.
Posted 1 hour ago # -
Yeah I guess that, and as always a few different sides to the story which are likely to come out Stokes does seem keen to say he has something to say on the issue but will wait until he goes to court.

At least he has some sense then
