Cerrertonia Jul 2019 3:39pm, 11 Jul 2019 10,726 posts	Quote Pin Cerrertonia We're miles ahead on DLS. Just need the rain to hold off for 40 minutes. Australia need to take 4 wickets currently to get ahead of us.

SPR Jul 2019 3:39pm, 11 Jul 2019 28,431 posts	Quote Pin SPR Lol. Mine and TRO's first sentence almost the same, but TRO had to throw in some despondency in the second sentence.
Cerrertonia Jul 2019 3:41pm, 11 Jul 2019 10,727 posts	Quote Pin Cerrertonia I think TRO needs to turn his attention to the weather. Can just see the rain robbing us of a result and Australia going through by virtue of the higher place finish.

SPR Jul 2019 3:49pm, 11 Jul 2019 28,432 posts	Quote Pin SPR I think we should turn our attention to Vince possibly playing in the final... Starc being smashed :-D
larkim Jul 2019 3:49pm, 11 Jul 2019 8,068 posts	Quote Pin larkim 6 overs to go until the match gets decided today. Once we've batted 20, the result is either 50 overs (or all out) or DLS. What's the weather looking like?
larkim Jul 2019 3:56pm, 11 Jul 2019 8,069 posts	Quote Pin larkim How much will the batsmen be in charge of their attendance at the crease if the rain does come? Just need to get past 20 overs, and with the current DLS position they'd be well advised to stand their ground and just defend everything for 30 deliveries.
