Sri Lanka made 8/239. Australia is presently 3/183 From 35 overs. Warner did not play, Finch made 11, Marsh 34 From 46, Maxy 36 From 36. Khawaja is 75* and Stoinis is 17*. Smith might be next in. It’s hard to say. We mostly picked bowlers and the rules are 13 a side (11 batting, 11 fielding).

No, Carey is in at 4th drop. Stoinis out for 32 From 29. Khawaja is 82*, Carey 1*. 4/206. About 13 overs to get the 34 required.

Australia is 4/217. The commentary team is so bored, they’re discussing India’s squad.

Khawaja is out stumped for 89.

Cummins is in now. Smith must have been picked for his bowling (1/9 from 2 overs, today).

Australia won by 5 wickets with about 5 overs to spare.

You just named the 4 favourites.

Makes me wonder whether the chance of one of New Zealand, South Africa, Pakistan & West Indies winning is really <25%. Looks like those odds are too long. (Don't know if such a bet is available, though.)

Yep. Still somewhat of a lottery.

My early tip for the Windies still holds. 20/1 is a bit of value with Gayle in.

Cummins: "I just looked at some data before that out of all the ODI countries, it [England] has got the least swing out of all of them over the past 20 years or something. When the ball is hard you still feel like there might be a little bit of nip. But it's pretty flat.

"With the brand new ball you still get a little bit, whether it's a bit of extra bounce or maybe a tiny bit of nip. Bouncers - we're going to have to use well, that's a real wicket-taking ball. Other than that, it's just trying to bowl good balls. I don't think you see too many teams running through other teams with big outswingers."
