ODI World Cup


Yeah India do look very strong


Australia won the toss here, it should be easier batting second
'Should' but it clearly isn't.

Australia v Sri Lanka on Monday...if Mendis shows up that could be trouble for the Aussies, NRR will take an absolute pasting if they collapse quickly here
 
Wonder if Starc can break McGrath's record this World Cup. Either way he's absolutely unreal in this format and especially this tournament

19 wicket's isn't an unrealistic target.

But Australia have to progress through to the next round
 
Was not expecting this performance from the Aussies. Even at halfway, I thought they would walk it. Has it really been that much harder to bat 2nd innings or are they just shit?

They need to win pretty much every game now. Last time they started this poorly, they ended up winning it in '99. I'm not going to write them off just yet.

I’m gobsmacked at how timid they’ve been in the past 2 games. I’m starting to think England knocked the confidence out of them at the back end of the Ashes.
