Bill 1,788 Posted June 20, 2018 Two more games left, it would be good to inflict a whitewash (5-0) And talking of colours the Aussies changed to all green after they took so much stick in their usual ODI colours of yellow Naughty folk kept mentioning how much that colour reminded them of sandpaper You can usually find the game on the usual streams, however Radio 5 has been excellent so far Just been missing Sir Geoff .. knowledgeable I''ll grant, but so easy to wind up Thursday 21st June 2018 One Day International Series 14:00 Venue: Emirates Riverside, Chester-le-Street Sunday 24th June 2018 One Day International Series 11:00 Venue: Emirates Old Trafford, Manchester Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bill 1,788 Posted June 24, 2018 [quote user="Mr Benn"]Stunning score"Right then, eyes down for the greatest chase of all-time."Highest one day score - Aus currently 38-1 (5 overs)listen here[/quote]Jesus, what a comeback !chasing 206 England were 86-6, then 114-8top order bowled out with only the England wicket keeper and two bowlers left to try and score another 80 plus,the crowd though were magnificentthey sung and England swung (the bat)steadily (not the pi ssed crowd) they ate into the lead, then right at the end a bitter blow as the bowler Rachid was out and it was down to the last man to hold out while trying to get the wickie (Buttler) on strikehe knocked his hundred, as England reached 200 and then it was overEngland had won against all the odds....5-0, a whitewashoh to be in England on such days Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
king canary 8,425 Posted June 24, 2018 Really was quite a match.Buttler was incredible- the 6 he hit after Rashid got out was a crucial momentum swinger- and Rashid played an absolutely crucial supporting role. Always know it is an exciting match when fans are cheering every ball a player doesn''t get out as they did with Ball. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bill 1,788 Posted June 24, 2018 114-8 There seemed no way England could win. I expected Buttler to last for a bit more and that was it. Then it was a case of once it was in sight would England fall so close. What a game For those who want to see the six (as above) and the end https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/cricket/44595347 lazy beggars go to 1min 20secs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
king canary 8,425 Posted June 24, 2018 BeautifulThat shot does highlight how the game can swing on one ball- Australia must have fancied chances with us still needing 11 runs with Jake Ball at the wicket so for Buttler to take the wind out of their sales the very next ball with that shot was crucial.

And it was as Gilchrists said A team can pull a win from defeat while the other etc....A very enjoyable one day series with great competitiveness shown (by England). The Aussies have been conclusively destroyed. Games can hinge on who bats first the weather etc, but to lose all games suggest the defeat was comprehensive and ''sandpaper'' incident may have had more of an effect than might have been at first thought.Cynics might suggest that without such ''trickery'' they are not up to it.
