West Indies win the toss and bowl

Tarvis Head gets a chance today. Wish him well hope he does good

 

[#GreenRoars]

Solid partnership after very early break through.

 

[#GreenRoars]

Australia 81/1

 

[Adijazz1706]

The pitch seems quite different to the pitches in the first 2/3 matches. Khawaja coasting along but Smith is going slow.

 

[Hasan123]

Not much interest in this match it seems

 

[#GreenRoars]

Just before this match my elder bro was saying Khwaja is rubbish player, he never performs at international level.

Now he is approaching century

 

[#GreenRoars]

Australia 166/1 (33.0 ov)

 

[#GreenRoars]

Usman Khawaja run out on 98

 

[#GreenRoars]

270-280 can be chased.

Bailey should be Australia's permanent number 4 in ODIs. Btw is it just me or has he changed his stance a bit. Was facing more towards cover against India. Now its straighter

 

[Chief Destroyer]

What ay start.

 

[Markhor]

Terrific start by WI openers. Ball coming onto the bat better than it did in Guyana.

 

[silentkiller187]

australian fielders are giving them a helping hand, khawaja in particular

 

[marlonbrowndo]

Faulkner is a gun ODI player. If I had to pick one seam bowling all rounder in my ODI team it would be him. So much utility.

 

[Markhor]

Intelligent change of pace from Faulkner.

 

[Chief Destroyer]

Typical hack dismissal.

 

[Hasan123]

Good start from the west indies. Australia should have picked another spinner it seems

 

[javiersuka]

Rooting for a Windies win.

 

[Chief Destroyer]

Bravo playing some lovely shots.

 

[Suleiman]

Nah I think his bowling is a little too one dimensional these days, a little over reliant on the back of the hand stuff.

Ben Stokes is a much better prospect who is hitting his potential in tests and will eventually deliver in ODIs as well.

 

[Hasan123]

Windies in a commanding position here

 

[Chief Destroyer]

Hopefully they send Braithwaite next if a wicket falls.

 

[Muhammad10]

West Indies cruising here.

Marlon always seems to step it up in the big games.

 

[Hasan123]

Lmao Samuels just took Zampa to the cleaners

 

[Usman Chadda]

Australia without Starc is not such a great team tbh. Their bowling looks incredibly toothless if you take him out.

Great win for West Indies.

 

[Suleiman]

good match.

Justifies the opinion that WI are underrated in ODIs and have potential, deserved to be in CT2017 over Pakistan.

 

[Muhammad10]

Looking tough for South Africa now.

The same West Indies team that got bowled out for 116 odd couple days ago with 18 overs to spare....in their own backyard, right?

You got to be trolling.

The same West Indies that had us down 1-4 in the world cup, yes that one.

They deserved to be in the CT 2017 ahead of us, they have players better suited to odis and limited overs in general than we do.

Now if you want to latch onto that one game as an excuse for them not to be, forgetting the countless times Pak has blundered in similar situations, then feel free.

Chalo atleast someone else has a downward spiraling graph as well.

SA is turning into quite a lulloo side.. Just like us

After we smashed them in their own home 2-1 they've never been the same again

 

[The_KING]

Well done West Indies.

 

[Zak_Fan]

WI Cricket is rising again. They can be a very dangerous side in LOIs.

Indeed.
Rather welcome company for us.

Exactly. Australia knew this wasn't a must win game.

Expect Starc to return and Australia to come out all guns blazing when next they face WI.

 

[#GreenRoars]

Excellent performance from WI, deserved it.

At point when Aus were 198/2 i think, almost every team will hit 300 from this stage when you have 11,12 hours in bank.

But they end up at 260+.

they just need to develop a few batters and i think they could be a good side in all forms of the game again

decent bowlers will come along naturally and they should maybe get that u-19 guy in the side

That's a lot of hours man. How many overs were left?

Haha, 11 overs
