The Cricket Thread (part 6) - from July 2023 (Bartholemew Frinton-Smythe, Humphrey Wigbert-Porter, and Quinten Breckenridge)

South Australia collapsed to be all out on 398, 37 runs short.

No surprises here lol

P.S. We might play a second spinner if we actually had one :roll_eyes::face_with_symbols_over_mouth:
Maxy is obviously a lock anyway so not sure what they’re going on about there.

We won the toss and are batting

All out for 240-250ish.

India to chase down with about 8 overs to spare.

Does Warner ever even look at the on side?

Marsh gone. First slip.

He’s terrible when he just sits there and defends, in all formats.

Sorry. Probably too generous. Maybe closer to 200.

Looking forward to Marsh turning it on for one game in the World Cup against a Netherlands or Afghanistan and for him to be lauded only to fall apart against any nation with a half decent bowling attack.

Bumrah would be a nightmare to face wouldn’t he

Perfect leg side clip from Smith races to the fence.

It’s a long World Cup as it is but fark if they’re planning on reviewing run outs like that it’s going to feel a lot longer :sweat_smile:

That’s a cracking cover drive. Smith looks in the mood.

Smith was nearly past the stumps when the wicket broke. Ridiculous.

Maxwell save us.

Bumrah is a dead set chucker

Definitely has a massive kink in his action.

I looked earlier at the weather in Chennai and it said - 33 but ‘feels like’ 43!!
