[icyman]

Same here,this time its tough.No Hayden,no Gilly.

 

[khalek]

i am sure shaun marsh, james hopes and watson will do very good... i hope they can score the important runs especially in the ODIs

 

[WORLD CHAMPIONS]

Quite difficult to choose from these lineups this time my Skipper is somebody else

 

[SciD]

Is Symonds going to play?

 

[icyman]

Not the first game,but I expect him for the ODIs.

 

[ZexyZahid]

I don't even know which players will play for Australia.

Luke Ronchi has been included as wicketkeeper.

 

[WestIndian]

Damn, already I have 3 guys on my team that not playing in this T20, why de hell did they not mentioned Sars and Chanders not playing before now.
And its been raining all night long and some part of the morning, so who knows what time play will commence.
We have had a weather system affecting the Caribbean and might be doing so for the weekend. Lets hope for the best.

Update after the 1st Twenty20: http://content-uk.cricinfo.com/wivaus/engine/current/match/319142.html

I picked Marsh, because Symonds still has problems. And I was thinking he might be the new Australian opener, since Hayden and Gilchrist are gone. If I knew for sure Marsh would play in the ODI's he would be a bonus player for me. I am hoping that Ronchi won't play the next match, because I was expecting Haddin to play.

[aussie1st]

Got one main punt player in Ramdin, those with Symonds, Gayle might benefit though as they should play the ODI.

 

[ZexyZahid]

Gayle and Symonds are actually still battling with injuries though. So that's why I didn't select him. And I thought I would be the only one who would have Watson in his team (since his place is not certain yet). But it seems a lot of people have him as well. I hope he will open the batting with Marsh.

 

[aussie1st]

That was my reason for not picking them but for the first time in ages those 2 players won't have many teams with them so if they perform like we know they can then those with them will benefit big time.

 

[SciD]

Damm Roy is my captain. :crying

Why the hell is Ronchi playing ahead of haddin. :
