great 50 from khawaja

out all rounders have done their job this world cup but gee I wish we had an andrew synmonds or a shane watson class player

35 in france the other day

apparently a record heat wave

Australia are 5 down on a tough pitch against world class bowling and somehow our run rate is still nearly 5 per over. I wouldn't judge this game until both teams have batted

I have a sneaking suspicion that Australia has played well

London forecast is for 33. 

Put like that, I am surprised we’ve scored at 5 an over. 

Carey cuts well.

Surprised Williamson is bowling his finger spin?

Kiwis need wickets.

carey's batting has been the surprise of the world cup

I have a feeling that bruisers like stoinis and maxwell are going to be crucial in the knockouts where the pitches are likely to be easier

For that reason England are a huge chance if they make the knockouts (as they are a team full of maxwells!)

how good has carey been?

every other player has struggled

Khawaja has looked like getting out about 6 times this innings and he's been australia's 2nd best!

I wish Maxwell came in at 7 here. Sure you'd like one of those 1 in a generation players like dhoni that can score 15 an over when you need it and dig in for 20 overs when you need it. But today you have specialists like maxwell, Butler and russel and these players should be reserved to the death

he's bowled surprisingly well

average score from here is 273 if we keep wickets in hand

doubt we'll make that many though!

khawaja has just struggled rotating strike a fraction. Still a wonderful half century so far

2 off the 41st. Hope we find another gear in the last 9!

wickets in both games

what an innings from carey

maybe a match winning one

commentators blaming khawaja's lack of strike rotation for carey's dismissal

if we saved maxwell 270 is on the cards

Khawaja struggling to accelerate 6 overs left. Still it might be enough

6 down with 4 overs left I'd go on the attack go for 40

cummins with bradman like placement :D

tough pitch

who do people think are ahead?

scoop shots needed...

loving modern odis

it has all the skills of the game from t20 skills to test

its gone from the most boring of the 3 formats to the best

nailbiter on the other channel as paki lose a 5th

can we make 250

ugh scoop shots please

khawaja out trying to leg glance a yorker

why wouldn't he pull out a scoop?

brilliant innings mind you

again a yorker

why oh why wouldn't you play a scoop

seriously its not rocket science

what a surprise a 3rd yorker and a 3rd batter doesn't try and scoop

this needs to be practiced before the semis how to take the yorker out of the equation

what was the non striker doing?

finally lyon scoops

unsuccesfully but still well done

no slips for the dorf here

surprising!

Wish we got another 20. Hope we have enough!
