We will get you back

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Aussies will pretty much destroy England

 

[Anfield]

Ballance is a good addition but that means Moeed Ali and woakes are going to bowl their full quota which could be dangerous.

 

[Ottoman]

Basically Eng have put all their eggs in Andersons Basket, if he could get them 2 or 3 quick wickets, we will have match in our hand.

 

[Random Aussie]

Odd decision to put us in

 

[Ottoman]

Odd decision to put us in

Probably because it rained in the morning.

 

[KingKhanWC]

Nice to see the World Cup back in Aus, great sight.

England too confident to bowl here.

 

[Justcrazy]

A win here will boost the poms

 

[Ottoman]

So 1st drop of the match. It was so easy.

 

[Justcrazy]

Dropped !!!

 

[Electron]

Dropped !

 

[shah_1]

Drop

 

[Anfield]

Broad welcomed with big Boos. lol

 

[Justcrazy]

Poms need to strike early , Aussies bat really deep here

 

[Ottoman]

Wow, that was beauty.

 

[shah_1]

Finch struggling expectedly

 

[world cup captain]

Poms need to strike early , Aussies bat really deep here

England bats deep too, both teams have a decent bowler who can bat at #9.

 

[Anfield]

Both openers are nervous.

 

[world cup captain]

What happened to Warner? No typical burst.

 

[shah_1]

Love watching Anderson bowl, such a brilliant artist.

 

[Justcrazy]

There is some swing there , Poms need to utilize that.

 

[Ottoman]

Steady start from Aussie here. Ball is moving around.

 

[Ottoman]

:

nice shot from finch

 

[world cup captain]

Steady start from Aussie here. Ball is moving around.

Bowling a bit too short to utilize the swing.

 

[habibi hayya]

:

 

[Ottoman]

Yah, they have to pitch it up, otherwise Aussie will slaughter them

 

[shah_1]

Broad bowling rubbish, you need to pitch the ball up rather than bowl short.

 

[Zeshan547]

Hackfanch going good

 

[habibi hayya]

Slapped

 

[Electron]

Finch looking very very dangerous.

 

[Random Aussie]

These graphics suck, it's not Mortal Combat dudes.

 

[shah_1]

The dropped catch might cost England, can really be frustrating for fans

 

[Ottoman]

Finch on a role here,

These 2 complements each other very well. usually its warner ho scores quickly today he is facing problems with moving ball so Finch took over.

 

[Anfield]

Finch looking very very dangerous.

I don't get which Finch is termed as a hack. He is not bad. Might not be test class right now but not a hack.

 

[Ottoman]

ENG losing the plot here.

 

[habibi hayya]

Another drop lol....

 

[shah_1]

The graphic looks like we are back in 90s, creative team of star sports needs to be sacked.

 

[Electron]

What a shot from Warner.

 

[Anfield]

Going to be long 50 overs for English team. Poor decision to bowl first. Rain shouldn't be influencing your decision to this extent.

 

[Arsal_AK]

Aussies on the charge.

 

[Ottoman]

33 in last 2 overs.

 

[Electron]

Damnn !!! Warner barely survives a runout.

 

[Electron]

Finch is in suicidal mood. Throwing his bat around.

 

[shah_1]

Finch looking dangerous

 

[Anfield]

I don't get which Finch is termed as a hack. He is not bad. Might not be test class right now but not a hack.

why*

 

[CricketCartoons]

England already look lost. That is why they will forever remain England.

 

[Electron]

I don't get which Finch is termed as a hack. He is not bad. Might not be test class right now but not a hack.

He gives you a chance playing high risk shots, but he is very effective with this. Can hacks be effective?

 

[Laal]

Am I the only one who hears a bunch of drunk Aussies in the background? Sometimes over the commentators voice.

 

[Electron]

Rubbish from England.

 

[KingKhanWC]

Bowling first is not working, bring the spinner on England

 

[desi_launda]

Pak will have similar start against India

 

[Anfield]

He gives you a chance playing high risk shots, but he is very effective with this. Can hacks be effective?

it's not about being effective. He can play shots off both back and front foot. Hacks don't have so much options available.

 

[KingKhanWC]

Am I the only one who hears a bunch of drunk Aussies in the background? Sometimes over the commentators voice.

I can too but they're not drunk

 

[KingKhanWC]

Along with stupid graphics the ICC have started with the most boring commentators.

Warner warming up.

 

[Justcrazy]

Aussies will win this.

 

[Ottoman]

Warner gone, nice work broad.

 

[Back Foot Drive]

Along with stupid graphics the ICC have started with the most boring commentators.

Warner warming up.

Boring commentators indeed.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Australia looking to dominate in the very first match itself. England already looking clueless.

 

[KingKhanWC]

Good ball but strange technique.

 

[Justcrazy]

warner gone

 

[KingKhanWC]

Absolute peach that one

 

[Electron]

Watson

Brilliant from Broad.

 

[Ottoman]

Watto gone, 1st ball

 

[badsha001]

it seems like everyone is busing in srilanka game which they loosing

 

[Back Foot Drive]

No duck? I wanted to see the duck.

 

[Random Aussie]

Fair ball to Watto there, well bowled

 

[Justcrazy]

watto gone !!!

 

[shah_1]

Broad

 

[Aman]

Aussie batting looks pretty thin, only Smith is probably capable of playing the long innings.

 

[Justcrazy]

Poms need to attack right now and look for wickets instead of bowling defensive line.

 

[Ottoman]

Eng need some quite overs now.

 

[Justcrazy]

Broad

Broad :AAG
