  1. Looks like weather will cooperate for at least part of the India / Pakistan match.  Pakistan wins the toss and elect to field.

    My understanding is the weather is supposed to get nasty later in the afternoon, so Pakistan has a good chance of chasing a D/L score.  Not thrilled that Shami isn’t getting a chance in this match.  He seems to have the kind of stuff to give Pakistan fits.

  2. I guess at this point the rankings would be:

    1.  India
    2.  England
    3.  New Zealand
    4.  Australia

    I only put England above NZ because NZ haven't played anyone worth a shit yet.  I'm rooting for anyone other than the England World XI side.

  3. AUS beat SL, but the Lankans made the middle of the match pretty fun.  End of the AUS innings saw a lot of wickets fall in quick succession and the Sri Lankan openers batted very well. Udana had two great run outs on great efforts.

    Not sure why, but for whatever reason Mendis came in (Sri Lanka still well in it) he went complete tuk tuk and just sucked all the energy out of their momentum.  They probably wouldn't have won it any way, but his lack of urgency bit them in the ass.  FFS they let Maxwell off the hook for less than 5 RPO.

    AUS have not batted well at the end of their lineup the last three matches which is ironic considering the second half of the order is what saved them against Windies.

  4. Pretty fun match today between AUS and PAK.  AUS gets the win off a brilliant opening partnership and then finally getting some clutch bowling at the end.

    Pakistan could have mailed it in after their 5th wicket, but I’ll give props to them for holding on for dear life as long as they did.  

    I also appreciated them getting All Out before 0:00 local time.

    5-out save for Robles, LAA survives again. 

    Thank you so much for your great takes during this epic LAA vs LAD series that no one gives a shit about.

    I could feel the tension of every at bat through your posts.  You should submit a sappy article to fangraphs for review.

    We were at an actual bar. That portion of it is like a garage. It’s the only covered area on the patio are so it’s got the only “outdoor” tv. The inside of the bar is actually okay, but it’s still a dive.

    I don’t believe you.
