Oh boy, left arm pace gets him again. Has an average of 27.28 against left arm pace and that's his third duck against left arm pace.

Should’ve reviewed it.
Missing leg.

Australia 1/100 from 16 overs.
Head 50 (45)
McDermott 45 (50)

Trav is crunching them.
86no off 63

1/158 off 22 lol

That escalated quickly

Lol, that missed the bat by a foot

Thats why the review is there, not for marginal LBWs

Head out for 89

2/163

Disappointing that he couldn’t get back to back centuries

He's not going to die wondering though, went hard and it paid off for him again, has set the Aussies a great platform.

Trav out= Bed time for me.

Well done McDermott first ODI ton

Yup. he's done.

Been a valiant servant of the game. Ripper ton in game 1 of the 2015 World Cup, stepped up in 2018 to open the test teams batting in the wake of the Cape Town disaster and been a good white ball captain. However the Australian way is you make runs first captain 2nd.

Head. Labschaugne and McDermott all showing they're better top order options than Finch even without Maxi and Warner playing.

Once again turning a monster score into a par score

And Pakistan chase it down in 49 overs to win by 6 wickets, their highest ever ODI run chase.
Babar 114 (83)
Imam 106 (97)
Ellis, Head, Zampa and Stionis all went a 7 an over and Abbott went at 8 an over.

All bullshit aside, why would you play two leggies? Especially when both are "OK" at best, should just play Gary as he is economical enough and only has two years left in him at the most anyway.

400 wouldn't have been enough with that bowling attack, we obviously have no respect for the 50 over format.

The Head gamble paid off for him, seen on FB people questioning why he wasn't in the team to begin with, he failed whatever number he batted at, that's why, great to see him opening and batting with flair and confidence.

How excited was Stoinis when he got Fakhar out? Mate, they're 1/118 sitting on 7 rpo, listen to some Macklemore fella.

It was a pretty good slower ball to get the wicket, I would be happy too.

They wouldn't be playing Swepson if Agar wasn't hit with covid imo
Only other options over there are Behrendorff (would give a new ball option) Dwarshius (meh)

Has there ever been a cricketer whose gap between being so handy in one format and completely useless in another format than Adam Zampa.

One of the best one day spin bowlers in the world, yet cant even make a state side for shield cricket.

I mean even Bevan was a quality shield cricketer, just couldn't step up to test cricket.
