Re: World Cup - 2019 Reply #106 – July 11, 2019, 01:23:14 pm Maxwell named.I had thought a lot of pre-game commentary was diversionary and smoke and mirrors stuff, because the idea of dropping Maxwell to retain a injured Stoinis seemed lunacy, maybe so!https://www.news.com.au/sport/sports-life/aussie-selection-mystery-deepens-after-maxwell-training-noshow/news-story/b6f0fc946d7a0e063d25b09a9a7c3eeaMore smoke and mirrors no doubt!Tonight's game has all the hallmarks of being a cracker!PS, this is me gloating!

Re: World Cup - 2019 Reply #107 – July 11, 2019, 02:34:33 pm A lot of Dhoni's actions are straight out suss EB, if an Australian did it... Imagine the tut tutting and implications of ulterior motives. But all Indian cricketers are beyond reproach aren't they? Now Kohli is having a tanty about the rules. The BCCI might think own the cricketing world, but all that coin still can't buy the World Cup.Very, very popular win by NZ.
Re: World Cup - 2019 Reply #108 – July 11, 2019, 04:45:22 pm I said to the president of our house that I don't like the Indian team and really want NZ to win. She asked why. Basically because they play victim a lot the time (which goes back a long way) and I really don't like Dhoni (although he is a good ciricketer).Two quick bits of praise for Kohli, though - when he asked the crowd to stop booing Warner and his immediate interview after the game.Looking forward to tonight's game, and then we'll see about the final...

Re: World Cup - 2019 Reply #116 – July 12, 2019, 02:16:40 am Australia lost with nearly 110 balls to spare. Poms could have scored 400 at that rate. Very humiliating.

Re: World Cup - 2019 Reply #119 – July 12, 2019, 08:27:35 am Poms have a decent one day team, very balanced lineup. Woakes was a mug but now is a very decent cricketer and Jason Royis another who has gone to the next level and seems to love playing Aus. Very disappointing result and hard to watch, hopefully we lift forthe ashes series.
