@NTA yeah nah. Was in the end quite conclusive. Just neither in and of themselves massively obvious. Combined it was damning.

[mimic]

Pakistan collapsing again.. lol

[Donsteppa]

For the supposedly #2 ranked team in the world, on form this summer Pakistan have two opening batsmen and nine lemons.

Imagine scoring a double century & a 43 and your team losing by an innings...

[NTA]

Couple of old lions in that team need retiring. Some good young players though

Fucking hell. Chris Lynn just hit Shaun Tait onto the roof of the Gabba in BBL

Just saw that. Has to be some kind of record?

[NTA]

Hard to estimate the distance when a building gets in the way, but they're saying 125m which is a record (previous best 117m)

Ball left the bat around 161km/h

[Snowy]

@NTA It was an awesome strike. Had to laugh when he winked at Baz afterwards. 104m hit from McCullum and then Lynn says "I can do better than that" and did.

Heat are now my Big Bash team (mainly because of Dan and Baz but Lynn is just great to watch.

[NTA]

He was in similar form last year but missed our T20 side. Madness

[Paekakboyz]

It's Lynn-sanity all over again! That was a beaut of a shot. Surely he'll make your T20 side this year @NTA? Who's likely to be keeping him out? The big show etc??

The Big No can go get fucked. Twat.

Lynn has to be there. His form is irresistible, even if they Thunder dropped him three times.

[barbarian]

Yeah Lynn will be there for sure. Played for Oz a bit last year, but didn't make the World Cup squad.

It's so volatile, you just have to reward the form players. Last year it was Watto, Khawaja, Marsh brothers, Zampa.

Think it will be a pretty different team this year, especially with our test side in India.

Maxwell would be in my team though, he's a great player. So much natural talent.

[No Quarter]

Maxwell is super dangerous in T20s, he only has to come off for 5-10 overs and it's all over.

[NTA]

His recent form might suggest otherwise.

[barbarian]

Warner pumps a century before lunch on Day 1 vs Pakistan. Never seen anything like it.

[mariner4life]

Beautiful timing. Miss warner scoring runs, turn it on to see him nick out. Fuck off David

[antipodean]

His innings could determine the fate of the Test. Although the Pakis don't look terribly interested.

[mariner4life]

Benign pitch, but you're right, Pakistan look like they've got a foot on the plane already. I expect Australia to bat once

[barbarian]

Our batting lineup is still so fragile though.

Can't remember a period where we rely on one or two players as much as we do now. If Warner and Smith fire, we win. If they don't, we lose.

Renshaw and Handscomb are coming along nicely (though thanks to Warner they've never been in under any real pressure), and Khawaja is in good touch too. But none have the game breaking ability that Smith and Warner do.

[mariner4life]

Not bad players to rely on though
