Time for a shit.

I got a wicket in the first minute. Heard the cheer then next second shouted from Bonesetta "It's working darling, stay there!" Bless her.

Time to break out the laxatives

Sodhi bowling all over the place. Total pies, and three wides in this over.

[No Quarter]

Boult gets us back in the game then Ish ensures a very comfortable win for Aus in the space of 3 balls.

[No Quarter]

We have to bowl Boult again and hope for at least a hat trick

[No Quarter]

Milne. Either he gets wickets or this will be over very shortly.

[No Quarter]

Marsh gets lucky again

[Yeetyaah]

Again, not a cricket watcher, but seems like the boys can't do it?

This is a cake walk for Aus from here. Would be the choke to end all chokes of they don't make it.

Well, it's been a good tournament and we've punched well above our weight. Knocking England out was extremely sweet.

We really needed everything to go our way against Aus, but instead we lost the toss and the game has gone the way of basically every other game in the tournament to date.

Kane's innings was special, and Boult has been superb as well. Nobody else has stood up unfortunately.

We're getting a brutal reminder of why only Williamson and Boult are regular IPL starters.

[No Quarter]

Rubbish from Southee

[Hooroo]

As punt hub said at the toss, “congratulations Oz for winning the toss and therefore the World Cup”

Yep, making the final and posting a competitive total is very good for a side with two world class T20 players and without Conway and Ferguson.

[Bones]

I've had better craps.

Big advantage batting 2nd and against this Aussie batting lineup, we really needed a score closer to 200. Always felt we had a much better chance against Pakistan. Great effort though to get this far.

[No Quarter]

Boult deserved to get Marsh there. Great spell.

[Donsteppa]

What's really frustrating about this is that for the last few days the quiet worries have been about the batting, yet even with the "win the toss" factor, it's the bowling unit who have fallen over performance wise.

[No Quarter]

@Donsteppa the spinners in particular. With a slower pitch they were absolutely key, and just bolwed rubbish. Didn't put any pressure on Aus at all.

I'd started to wonder lately while Sodhi is never in the conversation for the test side these days, tonight was a reminder of his lack of consistency. Which sometimes works in T20's, but not tonight...

[No Quarter]

Marsh has been a tin ass in the last 5 overs.
