Re: World Cup Final: Australia v New Zealand
I don't think it will be close. Not sure who the winner is though, just a feeling that one side will not perform as best as possible.
Clarke is retiring. I think Bailey, Watson & Johnson could retire too and (not seriously) perhaps Doherty as we don't use a specialist spinner anymore.Rocket Science: the epitaph for the Beveridge era - whenever it ends - reading 'Here lies a team that could beat anyone on its day, but seldom did when it mattered most'. 15/7/2023 -
Re: World Cup Final: Australia v New Zealand
I think the home ground advantage will make the difference for us. Unfortunate for NZ as dual hosts who haven't lost a game.
I'm predicting low scoring as in our group round encounter, both batting squads struggled to make the adjustment to better bowling attacks. Tipping us to win by 5 overs / 30 runsIf you kicked five goals and Tom Boyd kicked five goals, Tom Boyd kicked more goals than you.

I think we will win. NZ have posted some big scores on small grounds, the MCG may be a lot different. The bowlers must support Starc, as did they did the other night.FFC: Established 1883

Australia comfortably for me. Bouncy pitches and a proper ground will expose NZ.[COLOR="#FF0000"][B]Western Bulldogs:[/B][/COLOR] [COLOR="#0000CD"][B]We exist to win premierships[/B][/COLOR]Comment

Re: World Cup Final: Australia v New Zealand
Certainly have kept them down with only 31 conceded off the first 10 overs.
An extra wicket would help though.
