MCGGG Posted February 14, 2015 Posted February 14, 2015 A good bowling side can beat Australia. A batting shootout with Australia in Australia will fail almost every time. Any side that allows Australia to bat first and amass 280+ is not going to have any chance of winning. This current Australian side is almost a prototype of sides we'll see in the future, and it all stems from T20, heavy handed batsmen all the way down the order, star bowlers who can seriously bat etc etc, scary thing is, IMO Australia didn't even select 2 of their 3 best bowlers for this tourny (Pattinson-Harris), their fast bowling depth freakish.

MCGGG Posted February 14, 2015 Posted February 14, 2015 I have a feeling that they will beat most strong teams' date='but will be beaten by a minnow team[/quote'] They'll play their weakest 11 against the minnows, and they'll all be swatted like ants.
MCGGG Posted February 14, 2015 Posted February 14, 2015 You are NZ supporter? First 3 letters of my name might give you a hint.
amiret Posted February 14, 2015 Posted February 14, 2015 It can't be done . India cannot beat this Aussie team . They will have to play at their worst for India to even compete. we could not even beat Eng in the tri series.
bulbul Posted February 14, 2015 Posted February 14, 2015 First 3 letters of my name might give you a hint. But you posts refer OZ as they :winky:
MCGGG Posted February 14, 2015 Posted February 14, 2015 But you posts refer OZ as they :winky: I'm not in the team bro.
MCGGG Posted February 14, 2015 Posted February 14, 2015 But you posts refer OZ as they :winky: The MCG is the home ground for my Aussie rules team (Collingwood), and obvioisly the home of cricket in Australia.
bulbul Posted February 14, 2015 Posted February 14, 2015 I'm not in the team bro. None of us are in any teams still we see teams as us not they :icflove:
philcric Posted February 14, 2015 Posted February 14, 2015 The MCG is the home ground for my Aussie rules team (Collingwood)' date= and obvioisly the home of cricket in Australia. Why is your Aussie rules team, English? :vroam:
SLICKR392 Posted February 14, 2015 Posted February 14, 2015 Should chase their target down or defend a good target that we set.
nitinbwj Posted February 14, 2015 Posted February 14, 2015 aus cant chase more than 280 if maxwell fails.
veer Posted February 14, 2015 Posted February 14, 2015 Only Australia can beat Australia at the moment..meaning if they collapse massively... They seem to not feelling pressure at gome either...nz may beat them in league stage but not in semi final or final cuz they will be played on bigger grounds...
_Triple_H_ Posted February 14, 2015 Posted February 14, 2015 how to beat aussies 1) If they bat first then score one more run than they make 2) If they bat 2nd then stop them from making 1 runs more than you make

_Triple_H_ Posted February 14, 2015 Posted February 14, 2015 You just elaborated my PJ I didn't see it. Otherwise wouldn't repeat the same joke.
bharat297 Posted February 15, 2015 Posted February 15, 2015 I think the key with Australia is to minimize the damage they can do at the last 15 overs. I don't understand why Indian bowlers still haven't mastered the yorker. Look at Mitchell Starc's lethal yorkers, and see the impact he has. If a team can get Warner out early and then on top of that keep them to 60-70 in the last 10, they go a long way towards winning the match.
Cricketics Posted February 15, 2015 Posted February 15, 2015 Bat sensibly and put on big score against them if you get to bat first. If chasing, well again, put price on your wicket. I don't think Australia has a great bowling attack. They are Okayish. Build p'ship and frustrate them. They are bound to fail. I
keith Posted February 15, 2015 Posted February 15, 2015 IMO if Australia play well they can't be beaten, not in Australia anyway, I don't think I've seen a more powerful batting line up, they bat to 10 (and those 10 are all dangerous batsmen), and their no 11 isn't a bunny. Their the best fielding team in the world, and they have a a powerful bowling attack, maybe the best in the world as well, they tick all the boxes. wow, you've really been gobbling up the Nine circle-jerk haven't you? The batting lineup is dangerous but susceptible. Guys like Finch, Watson, Bailey, Faulkner, Marsh, Maxwell etc are good hitters but tend to fall to pieces against genuinely good bowling. It's one thing coming in at the 45th over and hitting about a demoralized England or India, quite another thing facing a bowling attack with set plans to each batsman with the skills to actually execute. I do rate Warner, Smith, Starc, Johnson and Clarke when fit but the rest of them aren't world class. They'll smash teams when they're on top but wait till they play a team with a little grit and see what happens.
