Australia [288] defeat West Indies [273/9] by 15 runs in ICC World Cup 2019

[Syed1]

Man if Windies win this it might be a bigger 'upset' than Pak beating Eng

 

[szundercover]

124 from 118 at Trent bridge is nothing. WIs should cruise home here as long as they don’t do anything stupid.

I remember dre russ murdering the English bowlers in a series in trent bridge dre russ tonked two sixes out of the stadium ,lets see how he does today.

Now every team that hasnt played the windies yet will be scared because of the fearlessness this talented team possesses.

 

[jnaveen1980]

WTH Australia are playing with 12 players.

correction 13 players.

 

[Justcrazy]

These two need to play risk free cricket for next 10 overs

 

[jnaveen1980]

Man if Windies win this it might be a bigger 'upset' than Pak beating Eng

Why? Australia is a low ranked side as well.

 

[Syed1]

Now every team that hasnt played the windies yet will be scared because of the fearlessness this talented team possesses.

Would be lovely if none of the "big three" make it to the semis

 

[szundercover]

correction 13 players.

oh yeah I forgot thanks fir correcting

 

[Hasan123]

Bring Zampa back on.

 

[szundercover]

Would be lovely if none of the "big three" make it to the semis

Anything is possible in cricket.

 

[sindhiboy]

Would be lovely if none of the "big three" make it to the semis

west indies, new zealnd, pakistan and a 4th has to be big 3, obviously safrica won't qualify for semis

 

[szundercover]

It will be most probably be india,india deserves to be in the semis.

 

[Gabbar Singh]

Would be lovely if none of the "big three" make it to the semis

The ICC’s nightmare final would be something like WIs vs Pakistan. Would be funny if that’s what happens.

 

[Warrior868]

WTH Australia are playing with 12 players.

Im happy u guys are seeing this. Certain elements dont like seeing WI do well, thats all im going to say.

 

[szundercover]

The ICC’s nightmare final would be something like WIs vs Pakistan. Would be funny if that’s what happens.

Do you think we might see a pak vs india final?

 

[Justcrazy]

The target is not that big , but if they keep loosing wickets , it will be another story

 

[szundercover]

Shai hope is 66 from 97 balls and people bash babar for scoring a runner ball.People put to much criticism on babar and this needs to be stopped.

 

[Mkumar825]

The target is not that big , but if they keep loosing wickets , it will be another story

Yes another 50 run make westindies favorite unless some wicket down .

 

[sindhiboy]

this has been a top quality innings from hope

smiths was just a bit better

 

[Justcrazy]

Holder getting aggressive here

 

[Mkumar825]

Holder just too good for spinners due to his long stride.

 

[Syed1]

Shai hope is 66 from 97 balls and people bash babar for scoring a runner ball.People put to much criticism on babar and this needs to be stopped.

Yaar it all depends on match situation.... Had Hope been batting like this when the runrate was skyrocketing then he would be rightly criticized as well. The world is not binary.

 

[Justcrazy]

Shai hope is 66 from 97 balls and people bash babar for scoring a runner ball.People put to much criticism on babar and this needs to be stopped.

Hope has others in the middle and lower order who can hit big , Babaar has none.

 

[Hasan123]

Surely Zampa has to be brought on with West Indies weaknesses against leg spin.

 

[Syed1]

The ICC’s nightmare final would be something like WIs vs Pakistan. Would be funny if that’s what happens.

Would serve them right for giving patronage to certain sides.

 

[jewel1985]

The West Indies players look like they really care about playing well in this World Cup. Which is understandable, they are playing for their future IPL contracts afterall.

 

[Mkumar825]

Hope play according to situation that's why his strike rate doesn't matter here .

 

[MRSN]

Still lot of batting to come. WI got this.

 

[jiduguravindra]

There is difference when u compare Babar and hope slow innings.Batsmen batting around hope are all big hitters but in babars case better said the least(absolutely pathetic)

 

[adil79]

Thats not true. They are playing for their own country. Andre Russel bowl faster than leagues in matches as he played for windies

 

[MRSN]

Hope play according to situation that's why his strike rate doesn't matter here .

WI got couple of powere hitters to come so Hope doing right to safe one end.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Shai hope is 66 from 97 balls and people bash babar for scoring a runner ball.People put to much criticism on babar and this needs to be stopped.

I think it is partly to do with them putting him on a pedestal and expecting miracles from him. He has ignorable limitations. That will look bigger when the team loses. It will be ignored when the team wins.

 

[szundercover]

Hope has others in the middle and lower order who can hit big , Babaar has none.

We have asif,hafeez and malik all our decent hitters.

 

[Hasan123]

Surprised to see no slip.

 

[Hasan123]

Cummins strikes!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Mkumar825]

Gone .it's going to be nail biter chase

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Harsha Bhogle talks some rubbish.

This is a 50/50 game and with a rr of just over 6 required, Windies don't need to anything crazy.

Harsha Bhogle was saying ‘Hope doesn’t seem to enjoy playing short balls, Holding was like ‘ No batsmen in the world enjoy playing short balls’

 

[Hasan123]

Zampa 3 overs will be the key.

 

[MRSN]

There is difference when u compare Babar and hope slow innings.Batsmen batting around hope are all big hitters but in babars case better said the least(absolutely pathetic)

Stop it bro. Baber got out against WI and look how Pakistan got bundled out for 105. Baber should play his game. If he doesn't score Pakistan will not post big totals.

 

[Mp812]

WI 190/4 (34.5 Ovs) • AUS 288 (49.0 Ovs)
West Indies need 99 runs in 91 balls
This game is turning out to a great contest

 

[szundercover]

Yes dre russ is in , this match could be done and dusted in 8 overs.

 

[Justcrazy]

5 down

Aussies will not go down easily

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Im happy u guys are seeing this. Certain elements dont like seeing WI do well, thats all im going to say.

Windies got this man

 

[jewel1985]

No IPL contract for Shai Hope lol.

 

[Hasan123]

Zampa on.

 

[KingKhanWC]

This could be a close game.

Easy win for Aussies.

Or quick finish by Russell. Very interesting watch now

 

[Hasan123]

South Africa should play Shamsi and Tahir against West Indies.

 

[szundercover]

The 12th man is on the role again!

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Oh man another poor umpiring, this is terrible from the umpires. Seems like ICC fixed this match

 

[Gabbar Singh]

Can’t believe this, what on Earth is going on!!!!! Mistake after mistake.

 

[Hasan123]

Awful umpiring again.

 

[KingKhanWC]

Poor from Holder, no need to sweep when he is so tall and not his best shot.

Survives both times due to pathetic umpiring.

 

[MRSN]

Holder stares at the umpire. Umpiring has been shady

 

[jewel1985]

Holding ripping into the umpires haha

 

[shah_1]

These umpires need to be sacked

 

[Hasan123]

Put a slip in here.

 

[Syed1]

What is this pathetic umpiring??????????????????????

 

[BDfanforever]

Whom are you guys supporting? WI deserves to win since they rattled Aus top order?

 

[Afhan Ali]

Shocking from umpires

 

[Markhor]

Lol this is like Pakistani umpires of yesteryear.

Wasim used to say they'd get decisions in their favour on the strength of the appeal not whether the decision was right or not

 

[MRSN]

Crowd appealing after every ball)

 

[Hasan123]

The umpiring has been poor but don't like it when people start saying stuff like its fixing etc. If you have these thoughts best thing is just not to watch.

The umpires are human they will get things wrong

 

[troodon]

Umpires want Aus to win. Even I could tell in live that it was clearly missing leg.

Worst part is many of the decisions given were not even close. I can understand if the decision is marginal. But these blatantly pathetic decisions against WI should be investigated.

 

[troodon]

The umpiring has been poor but don't like it when people start saying stuff like its fixing etc. If you have these thoughts best thing is just not to watch.

You don't want these jokers umpiring in the knockout games.

 

[Hasan123]

Starc looks threatening.

 

[troodon]

Whom are you guys supporting? WI deserves to win since they rattled Aus top order?

WI.

But have a feeling Aus will sneak through.

 

[szundercover]

Who are the umpires?

 

[Hasan123]

You don't want these jokers umpiring in the knockout games.

Of course I don't but I won't call them fixers.

 

[Hasan123]

Starc should pitch it up.

 

[Smbhayi]

No IPL contract for Shai Hope lol.

lol this is ODI games, not T20.. Nicholas Pooran played IPL before playing ODI..

 

[szundercover]

West Indies need two good overs to be back in the game.

 

[PennOne]

The umpiring has been poor but don't like it when people start saying stuff like its fixing etc. If you have these thoughts best thing is just not to watch.

1 mistake is mistakes happen
2 mistakes is a bad day
3 mistakes is incompetence
4 mistakes is bringing game to disrepute
5 mistakes is suspicious

there have been 5 mistakes by umpires where they incorrectly gave batsmen out and overturned

 

[troodon]

Who are the umpires?

Chris Gaffney
Ruchira Palliyaguruge

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

wow wow wow

 

[Hasan123]

What a shot .

 

[Justcrazy]

Russell gets that away

 

[Markhor]

Yes my man Russell

 

[Hasan123]

1 mistake is suspect
2 mistakes is a bad day
3 mistakes is incompetence
4 mistakes is bringing game to disrepute
5 mistakes is suspicious

Do you have any proof if it's fixed ? You don't make accusations like that without proof. Questioning someone of fixing is also questioning their character as well.

 

[Madplayer]

Andre Russel's confidence these days is NEXT LEVEL. Such belief in his ability. Just look at his body language.

 

[troodon]

1 mistake is suspect

I still don't think there is any fixing involved. But all of those decisions given are not even close. They were missing wickets by some distance.

Umpires are intimidated by Aussies for sure. They are caving into the pressure of Aussies. Mentally weak fellows.
