McCullum smashes the 2nd ever 2020 Int Century after 129 match gap

[Howsie]

Yeah, that 70-80 area seems to be where they all hole out. How many get bowled?

Surely Brendon McCullum has claims to one?

158* against an attack including Kallis, Khan, Kumar, Noffke and White.

Although if Kumble, Bracken and Steyn had played...

Why the hell wasn't Kumble playing anyway?

Nah that's a really poor attack tbh. Kallis is a very average 20/20 bowler, Praveen Kumar is nothing special and Cameron White is rubbish (he only got one over).

And don't get me started on how far in the boundaries were brought in.

Seeing as your a Kiwi, that's enough for me.....

Dilshan
He hit 96* in the 2009 t20 semi final with west indies,
I thing he will take the 2nd century.
dilshan is in 1st place in t20 ranking and gayle is in 2nd place:happy

 

[Harishan]

It's pretty hard to single one player out in particular but Sehwag, Dilshan, Duminy, Gibbs, Cameron White and Chris Gayle (again) all are very capable of scoring a T20 century on their day.

 

[Covvy]

Even Shaun Marsh actually got a century in the Big Bash.

He's got one in the IPL as well. He is a wonderful player, makes run scoring look ridiculously easy.

If only that could be said for his ODI game.

Yeah may be he tries to bat till the end of the innings thus fails to keep his strike rate high most of the time but I think he's better off playing naturally.

 

[Fatal Shot]

Why Marsh isn't in the T20 side for Australia is baffling. He is probably the best T20 player in Australia, and you can't find a spot for him, but you have someone like Clarke in the team, who isn't suited to the format at all. Make White Captain, and bring in Marsh.

 

[drainpipe32]

I think the problem is, where will he bat? He could probably bat three of four, ahead of Clarke.

An ideal order:
Watson
Warner
White
Marsh
D Hussey
M Hussey
Haddin
Smith
Johnson
*fast bowler*
Tait

 

[Fatal Shot]

Move Watson to one down, or have Marsh come one down.

 

[Covvy]

But the problem with that is that Marsh can still not get any runs. I know I'd want a Hussey in with 5 overs left instead of Marsh.

 

[McLOVIN]

Warner

Smith

Dilshan

 

[drainpipe32]

I reckon it'll be Warner. Dilshan or Sangakkara could do it too.

But Warner's consistency at T20 level is incredible.

 

[Dare]

Gayle again.
