Then the over bowl the slow balls. Whenever they have bowled a yorker it has not gone for 4 yet, buts that's like only once an over, why?
 
Anderson surprise me with two yorkers in an over, why he did not bowl more??

Death bowlers are going to win you matches. I hope Pakistanis focus on those skills. Yorkers, yorkers, yorkers...
 
Hattrick and a 5fer. A little too late in the day though :))

Australia is absolutely going to maul England here.
 
Terrible Terrible Death bowling!!!

Death bowling is wide open opportunity, unsurprisingly none of the yorkers have gone for 4 in last 10, although they have probably only bowl only 10 yorkers or less in last 10 overs. It should have being far more than that.

Pakistanis please take a note, with long boundaries, yorker become far more important than in Asian conditions.
 
Haha, you're chasing 345 and you play out a maiden.
 
How comes Aus owns England so badly but when we can't play them properly?

Aus is at another level these days.
 
Moeen Ali is a hack, if there is ever a definition of a hack.

He is a mediocre hack too.....
 
This Australian pace attack is too sexy. Give them a fast bouncy track, they will put the fear of god in you.
 
Starc is becoming a bowler, I thought he should be when I first saw him. He is peaking at right time!!!

Australia is at another level, because there are batting line up is probably deeper than Mariana Trench. Imagine Starc coming at number 10. Just too many bowlers who can bat. That allow the top order to smash the bowlers from the 1st ball itself.
 
Bhai was a completely different player in county dont know what has happened to him in Int. cricket
 
I would pick Cummins over Hazelwood, if he is fully fit!!

Keeps making the Indian batters look silly, though.

I think he's too high up the order. Six is the right place for him now.
 
Doesn't take much to be better than Nasir Jamshed.

Shehzad has SR problems but he is no hack.
Shehzad is a hack, he plants his feet and chases the ball and looks ugly.

Moeen Bhai at least looks classy :hafeez
 
Mitchell J has this really silly looking run-up then an explosive delivery stride. Nothing lyrical about him like his mentor the great Lillee.
 
Hindsight pick. Hazelwood deserves his place ahead of Cummins. But he isn't bowling well.

Death ball skills are going to key in this world cup. Cummins is much better death bowler. Plus Johnson with new ball can give more break throughs to AUS.

Any team that focus on death bowling can go deep!!

Look at their respective averages, and their strike rate.despite playing mostly in comparatively difficult conditions, moeen averages just about the same with bettrer strike rate.
 
Great move by Bailey, it seems as all three Australian captains have got a PHD in field placement.
