Was I dreaming when Maxi scored a ton off 40?

OOPS! Looks like my graph was done BEFORE Max scored his unbelievable innings!!

I wasn’t sure if this should go in the nostalgia or cricket thread.

Watch: 'Hypocrisy', 'whinging Poms' - 8 times England broke the 'spirit of cricket'

England claim the moral high ground - but for years they've gone against the spirit.

We won but the real winner is ODI cricket .It was a highly entertaining and exciting game that came down to the last ball . Head and Warner and Cummings with the bat and Maxxy of course .Then came Ravindra . Marsh and Marnus killed our momentum but Maxxy and Inglis got it back . Cummings smashed some huge 6's .
Starc had a poor game but his fielding including the Conway catch turned the game .Marnus who stalled with the bat probably won the game with some last over despatate fielding .What a game !
On the other hand Sth Africa won the Rugby world cup without scoring a single try and playing a team a man down .What a bore !

Like the rest of the English team,everybody but themselves.Their dope of a captain still maintains they are putting in the amount of effort required.
