Fanny? wfdu_ben99 :cutit haha this is an english dude watching the cricket tonight :watchtv

:laugh

Oi, it's wfdu_ben91, gotta get the number right, yeah? How depressed do you think Brad would be if you called him Brad469?

Should've brought Brett Lee in instead, what do you think Fanny Adams?

 

[andrew_nixon]

So the target was bigger because we lost 5 wickets? How stupid.

No, the old run rate rule is clearly stupid. An example for the run rate method.

Team A scores 299 from their 50 overs.
Team B require 300.
After 25 overs Team B are 150/9 and it starts raining.
Under the run rate method, Team B win the match.

Think that's fair?

 

[Mars Maximus]

Not fair at all, I hate when the weather interfers with the results, it should be about performance, as we all know, and yea it's wfdu_ben91 soz lol

 

[aussie1st]

OMG what are you doing Hogg, you didn't need to slog that all you had to do was push the single!

 

[angryangy]

The problem with D/L is that it's complex and mathematical and people don't like complex mathematics.

 

[aussie1st]

Well that and the team that is on the losing position are always going to complain about it.

 

[barmyarmy]

D/L question then. What is the par score for Australia to win were the rain to return and no more overs to be bowled?

 

[aussie_ben91]

Should've played it at the Telstra Dome. The weather wouldn't have any effect, Remember when Mike Hussey hit the rooth?

Target should've been revised to the runrate England finished their innings on, or was it?

C'mon Hodge, Twenty20!

Not very

 

[Leicester Fox]

this has been a good win for England. momentum going into the world cup now!we don't need pietersen shame to see no broad though. Hodge gone and thats all for now!

 

[barmyarmy]

C'mon Hodge, Twenty20!

I'm starting to feel a bit more relaxed with that wicket...

we don't need pietersen

We do but it's good to have played a series without him as its forced other players to step up.

 

[Leicester Fox]

a bit more relaxed! i've been relaxed since they were 5 down!i was only joking about kp.he can push our side into world champions i believe

 

[aussie1st]

That's the final nail in the coffin, pity that as I was looking forward to seeing how close we could have got. Those Kiwis able to loan us a Oram right about now

 

[genghis_khan]

I've never seen anything like it in all my days...these last two performances have been plain un-australian and the complete opposite of what we've built our success on in recent years. just absolute bs.

 

[aussie_ben91]

I think we're an outside chance yet. Brad469 has the pads on & his prepairing the save his house.
