Australia vs England ODI Series - 7 matches - Sep 4 to Sep 20

[Dutch]

Good containg job by England. They have got to start hitting out now....risky! Ryder is going beserk for the Kiwi's! Off topic but I am following both games! Sorry Jesse, I just jinxed you!

 

[Howsie]

England wouldn't want to get Clarke out at the moment.

 

[Themer]

Clarke gone extremely slow innings that has really made Australia only plod along.

 

[King Pietersen]

That's annoying. Clarke was going well for England. Just have to hope Hussey doesn't get going.

Explains why Clarke took the powerplay so late, he knew he would throw his wicket away. Still should have taken it earlier.

 

[Howsie]

Shah must of thought about not catching that. Poor innings though, Australia were on top when Clarke came into the match.

 

[aussie1st]

Another good 50 by Ferguson, he continues to impress me with each match. Good tips by the commentators for Ferguson against Broad, definitely worth doing that in future.

 

[Howsie]

Ferguson bats so much like Grant Eliott it isn't funny. So similar in everything they do.

 

[aussie1st]

Will have to look out for that next time we play NZ.
Ferguson's strength is his placement as he showed with that last 4 he hit, that was beautifully placed and got the reward it deserved.

Hussey the master of placement played a good knock, now bowled.

 

[King Pietersen]

Except Ferguson's actually good

Good bowling from Sidebottom. Hussey gone, but before then the tactics were questionable. Strauss just giving them singles was allowing them to get to 9 or 10 an over with ease because there's inevitably been a boundary ball or a good shot in an over. Not wise cricket from England really, although it can be difficult in a PP tbf.

 

[Howsie]

Elliott's one day stats say hello

 

[King Pietersen]

13 innings, 5 not outs and a List A average of 32 also say hello. If you're going to steal South African's, at least steal the good ones

 

[Howsie]

:laugh Hopes.

 

[aussie1st]

Looked like an NRL spear tackle with the position the head got into, the commentators obviously haven't seen much of it as they looked freaked out by it.

Interesting sending in Johnson next, thought we would have lost faith in him coming out and smashing it from ball one.

 

[Howsie]

13 innings, 5 not outs and a List A average of 32 also say hello. If you're going to steal South African's, at least steal the good ones

Again pretty similar to Ferguson, List A average 33
