England can make any road look like a minefield.

I know england doesnt give a **** about odis, it's been made abundantly clear over the last 2 decades, but not playing swann and finn really?? Its not like they're some mystery bowlers aussies havent seen before.

Why not just pull out of the entire competition and let ireland have a go, that way the whole team can be "rested".

Swann has a back problem.

Finn was crap in the ODI series against New Zealand.

David Lloyd was saying he bowled 20 overs in the nets this morning.

anything less than 5-0, weather permitting, will be disappointing

It's been a while since I saw a top 4 side struggle to chase 270 on a good pitch, not even accounting for the new rule changes.

That was the weakest Australian batting line-up I have seen since Kerry Packer. They need to get a few oldies back in if this is all they've got.

Based on current form and selections Australia might actually be the worst side in this tournament, which seems ridiculous.

I think shawn marsh should be in the side. Also david hussey, youth is fine and all, but you need some stability in the batting.

Could've been two LBWs given this over. Malinga looking very, very good.

lol Thisara Perera tried to runout a batsman at one end, ended up hitting the wickets on the other end running the other guy out. Sick.

only paid semi attention but that game was awesome

lol using net run rate though as a tiebreaker since it rates NZ atm above England punishment

long way to go yet though

This system has unfairly penalised both Pakistan and Sri Lanka as it takes no account of wickets taken.
