Didn't see any of our innings but the next 7 games for the team could be painful ... especially if we lose another one shortly

As it stands, we might have to win all 7 of our group games just to make the SF's!  An extremely tall order to say the least

They have a stacked team. Just when you think you have confidence that they should do well they underperform badly. Been mediocre for a long time now unfortunately.

I wish they would advertise bit more for women's cricket, just flicked it on by chance, didn't even know we had WI over here... killing it... as usual. Unfortunately pretty poor crowd.

    Kuldeep is some sort of bowler for India.  More than a handful for Pakistan.  Rarely bowls a bad ball and has a very good googly

    And now we're staring down the barrel at another loss

    Batting first Sri Lanka 1-156 off 26 overs

    There’s a pulse. Now 3/166 off 28. 
    They wasted a review on the first ball of the match. The bowling has been wayward and they’ve looked flat. Starc inconsistent, Zampa hasn’t been getting his line right. Struggling the Aussies. 

     

    If it wasn’t for Warner’s outfield catching the Aussies would be in a world of pain.

    Lankans now 4-166

    Cummins 2 wickets

    Zampa 2 wickets

    Better signs and the run rate has slowed a little now.

    Wicket Maiden. Unbelievable. Didn’t see that one coming.

    Starc comes on …. Wide. FMD. All over the place Starc. Needs to reset his radar.

    A win is a win but still not impressed. Went to bed when Marsh got run out. Good to see Zampa with wickets which might bring some confidence.

    England losing to Afghanistan might mean that whoever loses our match against England could be out of the tournament ... as it stands both us and England could miss the SF's anyway

    Also of note - no West Indies!  How the once mighty have fallen

    No West Indies because they got knocked out by the mighty DUTCH who today beat South Africa by 38 runs, doing everyone else in the tournament a massive favour!!!!

    The Dutch knocking off South Africa opens the door. 
    New Zealand always seem to start off tournaments on a flyer. Only to wilt near the death (end). 
    Australia meet Pakistan 🇵🇰 tomorrow night and that should be a massive match. Lose and Australia will be on the ropes. Win and they’re very much alive.

    Must win #2 tonight 

    Another big factor is we don't need a washed out match (only the 2 SF's & the Final have a reserve day)

  • Quote

    Lunch against the Pakis and 367 is the score. Warner and Marsh were unbelievable but the rest of the batting sucked. Small ground so 367 is more gettable than a lot of places. Still it is a biggish type score so they will have to bat real well to get it.

    Maxwell 100 off 40 balls - incredible!  Sets a new record ... power and clean hitting & reverse pull shots the highlights

    The Dutch were plucky and they fielded exceptionally well but they couldn't contain Warner & Maxie

    Assuming the Aussies go on to win the match, we should be able to set up a buffer (run rate & W/L record) in order to qualify for a SF berth

    England LOL

    What a pleasure it was to watch Head back in the side. Power hitting personified along with Warner.

    What a game against NZ! One of the best ODIs I've ever seen. How about the Himalayas in the background for viewing? Aussies on a roll.

    Shame about Maxi though. He’s been ruled out vs England and possibly also vs Afghanistan with concussion protocols. He was injured when he fell from a moving golf cart. But he’ll be good to go for the remainder of the tournament.

    Oh gosh, missed that news! Hope he's okay, been a real handy x factor for us! Hope we smash the poms!

    I love Maxi… he’s my fave player, by far. They said he’ll be fine, no long term effects, so that’s great. We need him in top form as he has been. As for the Poms, reigning champions, yet they’re an absolute hot mess right now. A jolly good thumping is in order! A golden duck for Jonny Bairstow… run out, of course. 😁

    There's something about that name Maxi, hey? We got 2 rippers!

    Great it's not long term. Hope he comes back in firing!

    Haha, Bairstow! Maybe even a Mankad run out is in order just to spice things up a bit 😁

    I'll take it one step further... Mankad run out Bairstow for a diamond duck! 🤣😂

    Omg that would be glorious!!!

     I wouldn’t care who went on to win the Cup, just seeing that would be enough for me. 😂

    Speaking of who’ll win the championship, I reckon we’re the only ones who’ll come close to troubling India. Last night I watched India’s innings, absolutely scintillating. I fell asleep during the innings break but woke up not long after and thought I’d watch the second half of SL’s innings. But there was no second half. All out for 55 in the 20th over. Insane! Shami took 5 for 18 in 5 overs! And he’s not 100% fit!!!!

    • AFLW REPORT: Gold Coast

      The forecast said wind. The ladder said mismatch. The scoreboard said obliteration. Melbourne didn’t just beat Gold Coast — they dismantled them: 13.15 (93) to 0.6 (6). An 87-point obliteration, the Suns held goalless, and the Demons delivering their second-highest winning margin and third-highest score in AFLW history.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #28 Will Verrall

      It was a tough ask for him to break through as a 199cm ruckman in the shadow of an all-time great in that position who is also the club captain. He had some good days at Casey but was unable to progress and was delisted at the end of the season.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #29 Tom Campbell

      The 33-year-old Campbell has yet to play AFL football for Melbourne, but his Casey form has been strong and he has been retained as a ready-made ruck depth option who is widely regarded as someone who is excellent for the culture of the club.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #30 Harry Sharp 

      The Demons acquired an interesting player in Sharp, who narrowly missed securing a spot in the Lions’ premiership team last year. The 22-year-old medium forward played in the opening round this season and ended up with 18 senior games, although he was substituted in or out in for ten of those matches. He demonstrated glimpses of form, but ultimately ended the year on the margins of the team.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #31 Bayley Fritsch

      Worked his way back after a slow start and a further slump in form going into the midseason but became a solid contributor for the club in the latter half of 2025. Closing in on 300 goals for the club.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      On Friday, the Demons return to our Casey Fields fortress where they have a 77% win rate. The scent of September is in the air and the struggling Suns are on the horizon. The Cranbourne weather forecast? Ominous, like the match itself: a strong chance of carnage. Let’s be honest, last week’s first half against the West Coast was a training drill but we dropped our guard in the final quarter. While this match is a mismatch on paper — second versus seventeenth — football is won in the wind, the contests, and the moments.
