England Vs Australia (ODI Series)
« on: June 25, 2012, 07:17:48 PM »
England have named an unchanged squad for the five-match one-day international series against Australia which starts at Lord’s on Friday.

Stuart Broad, Graeme Swann and Tim Bresnan return to the fray after the trio were rested for the final ODI against West Indies, which was washed out by rain as England won the series 2-0.

A chance to have a good look at some of the Aussie young bowlers for the next Ashes series!
Fixtures:
29 June (Lord’s)
1 July (Oval)
4 July (Edgbaston)
7 July (Durham)
10 July (Old Trafford)

Seriously think Pat Cummins will be the one to watch!

Who gives a stuff? A Bunch of pointless odis to add to an already busy schedule with stupid ticket prices. Unnecessary guff.

Very true actually Tim! Would much prefer a 5 match test series against SA instead of the ODI's.

The ECB wanted to arrange five ODIs for before the 2015 World Cup, so Cricket Australia said fine as long as we get to play some in England to give the young players - Warner, Pattinson, Cummins etc - a chance to experience English conditions before 2013 Ashes. So not that random, and not totally pointless.

And like Number4 said, don't you want to test yourselves against the number one ODI team?

I agree about the ticket prices - the ECB are mad
I think that the ODIs are a good barometer for both sides at this point. Hopefully Cummins and Pattinson can stay fit enough to last a couple of games...

Yes, but how about doing it next year before or after The Ashes, much rather a 5 test series against the Saffers!

Would much rather see a 5 test series Vs South Africa than 5 ODi's against Aus to be honest. The ECB wanted to arrange 5 ODis before the 2015 world cup? Its 2012, what ever happens now will have little if no bearing in 2015!

True, but it'll have a bearing on our youngsters before next year's Ashes  ;)

Yeah I suppose so, still a 5 test series Vs SA could have been a way to get in a youngster or two. ODi's are such a different game to the tests.

Cummins is bowling around 90 mph and Warne reckons he's holding back :o
