Cant wait to watch the cricket tonight,,,  :P  oh wait maybe not..
  If One-day cricket isnt dead yet, it  just got another nail in its coffin..
  Wont be long until the only 50 over game will be just for the World Cup every 4 years,, They'll  be just Tests and 20/20 for the regular seasons.

Maxwell will forever be known to me as 'swing-and-a-miss'.

It stems from the last ball of the T20 to here today :P

I dunno mate he's becoming a bit of a cult figure to me ;D

Wow Starc, that late in swing is a weapon! I hope he can use it well in England....

When he's on he really does bowl well, hopefully the India tour does him well

When all fit Does Starc get a look into the test side? I do hope so and not through rotation >:(

Well Siddle is obviously a bowling lock, Patto/Bird would probably take the other spot and they will probably want a left armer in there. I would say Starc gets first crack ahead of Johnson, but I'm sure there will be some rotation there and the two Mitch's could be trading places a bit.

Pitch looks a good one for batting, Finch and Khawaja opening and a couple of early boundaries. Looks like we are in for a good innings here.

Both are due to stay in and bat for a bit. Hopefully for their sake, they do.

And just after I post this, Khawaja gets out.

I'll blame the selectors for Usman's dismisle even though it was an amazing catch

If they keep swapping young players in and out of the side how can they get settled at all? Give him a propper go and don't just drop him again, give him the chance to build some confidence based on trust

Doesn't matter now, Hughes should go on to make another hundred.

2 awesome catches by the Windies

Ringo

2 great catches for first 2 wickets,  Roach really testing us as well.

The catching from the Windies has been spectacular.

And that wouldn't have happened if Maxy was opening.  ::)  :(

This Australian batting order really needs to be cemented and not changed every game...

Ringo

Do not think I have seen a better slips catch than that one.

Australian selectors and coaches are ***** chopping and changing all the time is not good for the team. 

Bit Biased but how can a team leading the sheffield shield not get more than 1 player in a touring side - Cutting imo is better than Johnson for Indian pitches.
