Cricketics Posted March 29, 2014 Posted March 29, 2014 I am surprised they are so close to getting out(not fully out yet), but I do believe still that they are the strongest batting line up still, probably a little less than India, but still right up there. Warne, Finch, Watson, Haddin, are all brilliant players, with Faulkner. If they miss out on semis, the other teams have just done something great to get past them, as this was possibly one of the strongest twenty20 lines one would see, and that too with their top order going into the tournament in great form. What you think about this reall?
Cricketics Posted March 29, 2014 Author Posted March 29, 2014 They lost both matches coz of their bowling. Exactly my point. If they are knocked out, other teams would have gotten away with their top t20 batting line up.
Sidhoni Posted March 29, 2014 Posted March 29, 2014 You missed Bailey and Maxwell in the OP. Their lineup is full of T20 beasts.
bulbul Posted March 29, 2014 Posted March 29, 2014 Watson is out of form for some time now & Bailey is not that great,Haddin is average. Bowling is mediocre without good spinners they cannot do anything.
SLICKR392 Posted March 29, 2014 Posted March 29, 2014 Maxwell almost bailed them out twice. Had it not been for him against the WI, their score could have been a very feeble one. He doesn't give a hoot about the RR or number of wickets that falls. Walks in and starts tonking.
kubrickian Posted March 29, 2014 Posted March 29, 2014 Their bowling sucks in T20s in these conditions. Need better spinners as they need to bowl all the middle overs. Same with NZ, Eng and SA but at least SA have Tahir, Duminy and Eng have Tredwell.
BlueBee Posted March 29, 2014 Posted March 29, 2014 Need to work on the bowling, I'm surprised starc going for so many runs, didn't bowl yorkers yesterday
undisputed chap Posted March 29, 2014 Posted March 29, 2014 They lack good spinners. Need spinners to bowl 8-12 overs.
I6MTW Posted March 29, 2014 Posted March 29, 2014 Had MJ played both the matches. Aus would've been undefeated in this tourney. Maxwell should open.

ThePhenomenal1 Posted March 29, 2014 Posted March 29, 2014 what t20 batting beasts? they needed like 64 off 50 against pak and couldnt do it!
jf1gp_1 Posted March 29, 2014 Posted March 29, 2014 Pre tournament I thought they would just run away with the cup specially given how well they batted in Indian odi series and all the recent wins
SLICKR392 Posted March 29, 2014 Posted March 29, 2014 Pre tournament I thought they would just run away with the cup specially given how well they batted in Indian odi series and all the recent wins Same here. They were my favorites for this tourney. Bowling has let them down big time. Especially Starc. And WTF is Haddin doing in their T20 side?
