WI do the hard work - once they are in sight of winning the game- throw it all away. Too many unneccessary shots - sometimes you have to work the singles and doubles and thats all.

4th ODI starting soon......Anyone watching?
George Bailey is not playing- is he injured or are the Aussie selectors on crack again?

Apparently Bailey is out with hamstring strain, starc has been rested.
Also west indies are missing a few players, gayle, roach and sarwan out.

Mitchell Johnson has started quite well.

Make that really well!! 3 wickets already.

Looks like this game is going to be a short one. West indies not looking good.

Great hundred by Pollard! Showed lots of patience and composure and has managed to drag the west indies to a somewhat respectable score

Yeah, I wasn't sure he had that sort of innings in him!

Disappointed with the West Indies as a whole. Their batsman just haven't shown enough application and chucked wickets away to regularly and the bowlers have leaked too many runs, best should have played at Perth. This Aussie team aren't that good at 50 over stuff as the whitewash v England last year proved. It appears the t20 success has been to the detriment of the longer forms for the Windies. Good tonne by Pollard and good wheels by Best.

Just saw Finch take a stump at the end of the game - Why on earth he though he deserved that I will never know.

Yeah, you would think he has used up all his chances.
Shame really, he is super talented but just doesn't seem to cut it at international level.

Did someone notice , Pollard has lost weight.  Also if you observe his innings he is playing with a cool head :D, not getting over aggressive with his shot selection .  Overall the Windies are getting better, hope they get some new talent and rule the game as the 70s team did.
