That’s just statistics. Pakistan are traditionally hotnor cold. I bet they get rolled by the Gans. Probably roll Sri Lanka as well. They are not the team they use to be. The Gans have nice straight bats clean hitters and strong down in the tail as well. They threw away 10 overs last night. Had they been a bit more conservative they would have reached 250.

I disagree that Afghanistan has the weakest batting line up. I bet they beat a few teams.

I agree this is a danger game for Australia because they are expected to win easily. Afganistan have nothing to lose, and can go all out. They will beat some teams that is for sure. You don’t want to be that team.

Australia must attack Afghan spinners today

England had the best bowlers and won.
West Indies bowled better last night. Australia won the final last time because of a red hot Stark and Faulkner. So it seems to be the team with the most disciplined bowlers will win. Of course it must be backed up with spot on fielding and no drop catches.

Pakistan crumble to embarrassing loss at hands of West Indies

Who can remember anyone having a notable and successful origin first game. Remember the Hodges fumble? I can think of only maybe Munster and Hayne even King Wally talk a few games to get going. So don’t expect these NSW rookies to excel first up. Napa has played a few and he hasn’t really stamped his name yet. I’m predicting he will this time.

New South Wales will annihilate Queensland on Wednesday night

Good points. I agree

Sorry Israel, I don't want you back in the NRL

Anyone who minimises the tragedy of this whole thing misses the real point.
Australia reverted to cheating. A team that used to swagger with supremacy and bounce out opponents, body line bowling, aim for the head, hand or heart attitude. Win because we are tougher and will find a way because we have champions in our team. Revert to cheating. Well it’s just not cricket. It’s just not Australian cricket. Sad, sad, and embarrassing. Remove the cancerous growth and get back to the good old days of a Steve Waugh 100 under pressure Dean Jones coming down the pitch to Curtly Ambrose and hitting him straight down the ground, Alan Border grafting away when all seemed lost, Merv Hughes trying to knock someones Helmut off. But cheating?

It only points to one conclusion

Are you going to tell us …..Why not Clarke?

This is the most disappointing sporting moment in my lifetime

I couldn’t agree more and say it better myself. 100% accurate on all fronts. Well done. You are speaking for me and hopefully most Aussies.

Australia left without a team to love after Smith cheats the game

Well said and I agree 100%
Coach, captain, vice captain, everyone involved sack. Good by good riddance.

May Australian cricket rest in peace

I say sack him. I’m Australian. Disgraceful

Steve Smith must be sacked as captain

Can’t hurt to pick the one day side based on the t20 side could it?

Australia boss Kiwis in T20 tri-series final

The Broncos were pipped in the famous Ben Hunt drop( they should have won then) …. they didn’t.
Last year they were looking at 2nd place and a favourable finals draw. They lost a game they should have won and ended up on the wrong side of the draw with Melbourne and Cows.
I think they have missed there opportunity for a while now. Also I am tipping the warriors and Newcastle may not be the easy beats everyone thinks. Having them twice in your draw may not necessarily be bread in the oven.

All filler no killer: Four top teams just making up the numbers in 2018

Pick the one day team on a players ability to succeed in 20/20. If you can do it for the short format you can do it for the longer format. Most economical bowler in a T 20 when the batsmen are going at him have to be equally hard to get away in 50 overs. Also a batsman who can tonk is needed in 50 overs because 300 is the norm now. 200 will become the 20/20 norm.

Australia stun Kiwis in record T20 chase

Yes me too, very funny. Especially when it’s dissing Galen

And the NRL's 2018 top eight will be...

About time. Pat Cumming. Smith is a terrible capt. he should have had more around bat as everyone is saying. Also they should have played Swepson the other two tweakers are crap.
