5th Match: Australia vs West Indies (Group A)

[SciD]

WI are still in this one. Hope they continue now though.

Very slack running by Fletcher, he will need to fix that up ASAP. And there goes Walton, don't know what he was thinking but we're taking it.

Lee goes from no balls to bowling too high wides.

 

[Howsie]

Well it was a nice dream while it lasted, can't see West Indies C winning from here. Would of liked to have seen it tbh, it would of given them a lot of confindence going over to Australia later this year.

 

[Howsie]

They should really think of taking the powerplay now.

 

[aussie1st]

The powerplay brings about the wicket, nice catch by Paine. Seeing it live I thought it was a chance but when the commentators said it was going to the rope I was going oh no.

 

[Howsie]

How quick was that ball after the wicket, there's no way it was only 147K's.

If these two batsmen stay about and make 30 odd runs here during the powerplays the game might well be back on.

 

[StinkyBoHoon]

hahaha, I cannot believe Lee tried to get away with that.

Yea looked much quicker than that, probably hit a crack after flying that high.

Never seen that before, was a funny piece of play and worth a shot

 

[Howsie]

hahaha, I cannot believe Lee tried to get away with that.

He was just joking right? He wasn't actually trying to get away with it. Pretty funny though

Howsie added 16 Minutes and 47 Seconds later...

Darren Sammy. Hopefully he hangs around for a little while, I've seen him hit some massive sixers in the past.

 

[aussie1st]

That was some hitting by Sammy, Johnson needs to bowl short or yorkers no more in between as we know where they end up.

 

[Howsie]

So is Asad Rauf not calling wides anymore?

 

[aussie1st]

That was hit like a rocket, good catch Hussey. Reifer is having a shocking, hes just too slow for the quick bowlers.

 

[Howsie]

This umpiring performance from Asad Rauf has been shocking tbh.

 

[shirazu]

Well played Australia, beamers and balls 3 feet outside off. Classy stuff...lol they couldn't beat Bangladesh playing like this.

Probably the worst international batsmen I've seen in a long time, he looked horrible all day.
