I have never seen another person cramp /spasm up as much as Maxxy did in this game .. i thought they might have to use the medi-cab to take him off the field .. well done Maxxy another record and another win for the Aussies.

Best innings ever in any format IMO.

What a champion

First player to hit 200+ in a run chase in a one day game and this after being 7 down for about 90,truly amazing stuff.What is even more amazing is the fact that he came in down the batting order and was not an opener so he could not take 50 overs to get it.
I doubt if it will ever happen again in my lifetime even if it does happen again sometime in the future.

Unbelievable. Best innings ever.

 

[tiger_one]

Yeah I seen that. A first they reckon.
Reminds me of underarm.
The knucklehead was facing a spinner he should’ve faced up without a helmet?

He has produced the two best innings at this WC, both absolute record breakers that will stand and be talked about for a long time.
The 201 was great, unbelievable. The 100 in 40 balls was amazing fun.
Really pleasing to see him peak at a WC and be a dominant force in winning games for Oz.

Go Killer!!!
He gets his first WC wicket and our first wicket for the game.

Marsh the most useless bowler . Also Cummings do your numbers already 10 overs from the 3 part timers Head ,Stoinis and Marsh .So why give Marsh one more which goes for 18 ! So now Marsh instead of 3 overs 0-30 now is 4 overs
0-48 . In general our bowling is ordinary except Zampa and Hazelwood .
Starc is rested today .

We’ve got/had form issues all over the team during this WC but we’ve also got game winners and although we have not been consistent we are managing to get enough out of a few to get us home. So far today it’s Marnus’s fielding keeping us in it.
Agree with ya on Patty and using Boggy Marsh one over to many, but I’d be trying to get a couple of extra overs out of them as Killer and Patty might get carted towards the end anyway.

Got a bad feeling about this one ....

 

[Buttface]

Back to Stionis and he jags a wicket.

 

[Buttface]

Hazo is only going for 3/over and is not gunnna get 10 overs???

 

[Buttface]

Still no Hazo???

 

[Buttface]

Good over from Killer, just 2 off it.
Obviously they think variety and pace off is what’s needed.

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

How did the Wndies not make it?

 

[Buttface]

Killer’s last two overs went for 2/5, pretty good considering he went for 2/56 in the previous 8.
Personally I would’ve used Hazo instead of Stoinis at the end.
Big total to chase.

I hope your referencing Sean Abbott as Killer has nothing to do with the Phillip Hughes incident.
