13 overs bowled this tournament now wickets. Not having Topley is nuts.

Our bowling plans and selection are just wrong. How they didn’t see Topley is a better option in this attack than Wood is just nuts.

It takes us so long to realise pace off is the answer.

Feel dirty supporting the Cons, but needs must.

Another sloppy, poor performance in the field. They need something spectacular in the reply or Buttler and Mott are really staring down the barrel.

This just looks like a badly coached team.

Obviously you never know until both teams have batted, but you can almost guarantee Australia will be much sharper and smarter with the ball and in the field.

Poor overall, Jordan is so over rated. Topley, possibly Curran should be in next game.

Miles off it and thus will kill run rate too.

Why would you win the toss and bat 2nd on a used pitch? It is only going to get worse.
