ODI Australian tour of England.

[Bornadog]

Not sure if anyone has been watching/following the ODI in England.

Australia has now won 14 straight, with the last two over England. Travis Head in some incredible form and there is talk he will open the batting with Ussi in future tests and Smith back to 4th.

3rd ODI starts 24th

Have watched parts of the games so far, was great to see Carey make 70 odd a few days ago to win whilst copping it from the crowd, England have a few promising younger players to look out for, WC Jamie Smith who can belt the ball and Jacob Bethall who looks all class with the bat.

It's been a wet week in London so don't like my chances of a full game. It feels weird too going to the cricket this time of year in a jumper and and long pants!

Rain stuffed up the third ODI when England were chasing 307. The DLS system ended up giving England the win.

I find the England win by 46 runs a bit much but they would have won it either way.

Re: ODI Australian tour of England.

Well last night was an absolute shocker .
I looked up the age demographic for both teams and in a series that means nothing why isn’t Australia playing the young players to get experience ?
Australia had one player under 30 while England had a few mid 20s being blooded.
Maxwell is done, can’t possibly survive on one innings every 5 or 6 at the age of 35 .
Every young player was on the bench . What’s the point of the series if you’re just giving your pensioners games before they retire ?
