Rating each player out of 10

Warner: 0 (generous)
Burns: 3
Khawaja: 2
Smith: 6 (his dismissal in first innings set a bad tone)
Voges: 4
Marsh: 4
Nevill: 7 (assuming he kept well, not really sure)
O'keefe: 7 (Injuries were devestating and showed supreme class to get out there)
Starc: 4 (That 2nd inning dismissal was horrible)
Lyon: 6
Hazlewood: 6

You were awfully optimistic Oss, I'd mark Starc and Warner much lower. On performance Smith was our best, but his captaincy was a cause for concern at multiple points.

Agree mostly with these Torpy, but might have Smith as a 5 just because he completely threw his wicket away in the first innings.

Sri Lanka won the toss and elected to bat

and we got a wicket first ball of the match

but we missed it cos the Windies T20 comp ran over time

unbelievable

that was the EXACT way I went out playing for my school back in the primary school days

crazy I still remember it. clipped it off my toes, straight to the fielder. was spewin

Bill Manspeaker

brilliant piece of fielding by Lyon. took a one handed catch on the boundary but had to throw it back cos he was going over the rope
