33
00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:31,560
Speaker 1: into it. The best team of all Australia. The Aussies

34
00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:33,600
Speaker 1: absolutely love it. You guys want to go through the

35
00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:35,560
Speaker 1: squad first, Well, that's how that's all start things off.

36
00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:38,320
Speaker 3: Well, it's a pretty experienced squad, isn't it. And I've

37
00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:41,680
Speaker 3: listed here strength is that there is experience everywhere. They've

38
00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:43,160
Speaker 3: won multiple World Cups.

39
00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:43,800
Speaker 1: Some of these.

40
00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:48,640
Speaker 3: Players, great batting order with you know, Mitch Marsh, David Warner,

41
00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:52,120
Speaker 3: Travis Head all at the top. And then with the bowling,

42
00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:55,800
Speaker 3: you've got the the quartet, you've got the it's a

43
00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:58,800
Speaker 3: bit boring, isn't it. You got hazen Wood start coming Zampa.

44
00:01:58,600 --> 00:01:59,960
Speaker 1: Literally the format court.

45
00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:01,840
Speaker 3: It's just they just know how to win.

46
00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:03,920
Speaker 1: I think I just counted, then I think it's eleven

47
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:05,920
Speaker 1: or twelve players in this squad have won a World

48
00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:09,519
Speaker 1: Cup of some sort. I'm going to go with the

49
00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:14,440
Speaker 1: committ marsh Agar Cummins, David Alice Green has he did

50
00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:20,600
Speaker 1: he win Alice squad? I reckon he was in anyway. Anyway,

51
00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:22,720
Speaker 1: there's just so much experience, as you put is the best.

52
00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:25,000
Speaker 2: Part of eighty five plus percent of these players and

53
00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:25,639
Speaker 2: won a World Cup.

54
00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:26,080
Speaker 1: Yeah.

55
00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:27,600
Speaker 3: The only thing I don't like about this squad is

56
00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:31,040
Speaker 3: that there's no Ja Crazy mcgir He's kind of in there.

57
00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:36,160
Speaker 1: There's a traveling gear, but he's like fifth traveling So yeah,

58
00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:38,000
Speaker 1: every team gets a yeah he would.

59
00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:40,000
Speaker 3: I was like, yeah, that's a weird reference.

60
00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:42,639
Speaker 1: Fifteen players every team gets, and then you also get

61
00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:44,600
Speaker 1: I think you can name as many reserve.

62
00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:48,920
Speaker 2: But you can like four.

63
00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:52,799
Speaker 1: Yeah, so obviously named all the experienced guys, pretty much

64
00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:55,640
Speaker 1: the same squad we've had for the last three years

65
00:02:55,639 --> 00:02:57,960
Speaker 1: in this short format, big big tournaments. Then you got

66
00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:01,800
Speaker 1: Phrasing and Matt short Coming in the traveling reserves unfortunately

67
00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:03,360
Speaker 1: might not get a game, but I think they should

68
00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:05,160
Speaker 1: be in that squad. They should be in that squad.

69
00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:07,880
Speaker 2: But is this what separates Australia from other nations is

70
00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:13,520
Speaker 2: the experience absolutely at the biggest stage, whereas India, you know,

71
00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:17,400
Speaker 2: the sort of becoming known for choking.

72
00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:19,639
Speaker 3: In the big games, the finals with no DONI that's

73
00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:21,360
Speaker 3: just like half your experience, Isn't that right?

74
00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:23,600
Speaker 1: Should I have brought back Don? He's still good in

75
00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:24,919
Speaker 1: the IPL even though he's forty two.

76
00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:26,920
Speaker 3: I feel like he's retiring every year and he just

77
00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:27,400
Speaker 3: comes back.

78
00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:30,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think bring him in vibes men.

79
00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:34,400
Speaker 3: Cheap, Yeah, yeah, I don't mind that.

80
00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:37,800
Speaker 1: We'll get into India anyway. What about weaknesses there?

81
00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:40,840
Speaker 3: Weaknesses? I just there's a bit to play out in

82
00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:44,280
Speaker 3: terms of like the batsman to the bowlers, the all

83
00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:46,840
Speaker 3: around the ratio, like do we play soyness, do we

84
00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:50,320
Speaker 3: play green? Where does Maxie bat is David at six

85
00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:52,080
Speaker 3: or seven is? I don't know, there's a few bits

86
00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:54,240
Speaker 3: to play out. I think the top orders settled. I

87
00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:57,680
Speaker 3: think the bowlers are pretty settled. But yeah, if we've

88
00:03:57,720 --> 00:03:59,040
Speaker 3: got to find the right balance in that sort of

89
00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:00,440
Speaker 3: middle order, I think.

90
00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:02,160
Speaker 1: The depth, Yeah, that's it's a good issue to have

91
00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:04,160
Speaker 1: because you could have like a lot of people arguing

92
00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:05,480
Speaker 1: Wade over English.

93
00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:07,240
Speaker 3: I'm on the English Bandwag. I think at you two

94
00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:07,840
Speaker 3: are as well.

95
00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:10,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, I feel like they would probably choose Wade for

96
00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:11,800
Speaker 1: his experience and things like that.

97
00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:14,160
Speaker 3: They could play both. That's the other thing. You could

98
00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:15,800
Speaker 3: play English at five, Wade at seven.

99
00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:19,120
Speaker 1: Wade. Yeah, played in teams where he hasn't way.

100
00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:25,480
Speaker 4: Wade won us the previous ut Us also against against

101
00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:28,200
Speaker 4: Pakistan in the final two World Cups ago, twenty World

102
00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:29,839
Speaker 4: Cups ago, he won us the game, did he really?

103
00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:31,919
Speaker 1: I don't know that. Yeah, it was in Dubai.

104
00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:35,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, he made like sixty or twenty, Mitch Mark thirty

105
00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:36,520
Speaker 2: or yeah.

106
00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:38,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's so storm experience.

107
00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:41,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think spinning is a big issue other than

108
00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:44,279
Speaker 2: other than Zampa. You're just looking at a lot of

109
00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:48,839
Speaker 2: part times and even and even then Adam Zampa, I'm

110
00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:52,560
Speaker 2: at the national stage, international stage the last year, I

111
00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:53,120
Speaker 2: think he's not.

112
00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:56,640
Speaker 3: I was going to be as an issue, but then

113
00:04:56,720 --> 00:05:00,640
Speaker 3: I just realized we won a World Cup in India. True, true,

114
00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:03,800
Speaker 3: with the same the same team Xampa with Maxi bowling,

115
00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:05,960
Speaker 3: ye with Travis Head.

116
00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:09,120
Speaker 1: Yes. So obviously playing in the West Indies, which is

117
00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:12,120
Speaker 1: slower slower, is that good for spin? We're just good for.

118
00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:15,120
Speaker 3: Spin, good for bowlers who can change out the back

119
00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:19,560
Speaker 3: of a length. So I think Cummens and Hazelwood Alice

120
00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:22,159
Speaker 3: is probably more suited to that, to be honest, but

121
00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:24,960
Speaker 3: I don't think you'll play. That's why I just didn't

122
00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:26,880
Speaker 3: put spinners a weakness because I just feel like we

123
00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:31,120
Speaker 3: did it in them. Yeah, the best spinning conditions in India.

124
00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:36,360
Speaker 1: So what's a past mark for Australia. Which is a

125
00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:38,640
Speaker 1: big call with twenty countries, but there's a lot of

126
00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:41,520
Speaker 1: good teams, the amazing form in World Cups and with

127
00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:43,320
Speaker 1: this team, is it this is probably like the last

128
00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:49,080
Speaker 1: chance that this squad, said, this squad like cricketers.

129
00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:53,440
Speaker 3: Can play close forty I reckon, you look almost done.

130
00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:59,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, some retiring players almost done. Yeah, I don't know.

131
00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:01,279
Speaker 3: I feel like could surprise you, okay octually.

132
00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:03,320
Speaker 1: So yeah we're saying, probably make it to the final.

133
00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:06,480
Speaker 1: We can do that for each team. Yeahs past mark, this.

134
00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:08,479
Speaker 3: Mark has make the fine? Do I think they will?

135
00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:10,000
Speaker 3: I'm not sure. I need to think about it a

136
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:12,039
Speaker 3: bit more. Well, we've got a whole show to have

137
00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:12,560
Speaker 3: to think about it.

138
00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:14,719
Speaker 1: Maybe the other I was gonna ask you guys, the

139
00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:18,479
Speaker 1: form and just mental and physical strength of MAXI has

140
00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:20,680
Speaker 1: been questioned. He obviously went home as well, did he

141
00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:22,240
Speaker 1: Just definitely he's in the teams.

142
00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:25,160
Speaker 3: Think we all around that. Yeah, don't read too much

143
00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:26,880
Speaker 3: into I pr form.

144
00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:28,880
Speaker 2: But although I do think it's a bit worried, I

145
00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:31,480
Speaker 2: do think it's like, at the same time, it's more

146
00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:34,400
Speaker 2: of an intimidation factor that this guy's playing well right now.

147
00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:37,599
Speaker 2: It doesn't matter where it is, like he's people like

148
00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:41,320
Speaker 2: maybe yeah, people probably like there's.

149
00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:43,080
Speaker 3: Nothing better to get your form up and going and

150
00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:44,560
Speaker 3: smashing some team like a man.

151
00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:46,920
Speaker 1: Well there you go.

152
00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:49,800
Speaker 2: So you know the Glenn Bexwell does rock up for

153
00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:55,719
Speaker 2: Australia did one leg yep, Yeah, we're talking.

154
00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:59,080
Speaker 1: About all right. So that's the ads. He's done past Mark.

155
00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:01,520
Speaker 1: I think we've on the final, which is a big ask.

156
00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:03,680
Speaker 1: But the form in World Cups is awesome. It is

157
00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:06,200
Speaker 1: big us twenty countries when a lot of country is

158
00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:08,040
Speaker 1: now building it. They teach we are we.

159
00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:11,160
Speaker 2: Are the second favorites according to the bookmakers.

160
00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:14,960
Speaker 1: I believe India favorites. India favorites surprise, let's get into India.

161
00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:22,320
Speaker 1: Yeah all right, great segue shame shame you are.

162
00:07:22,720 --> 00:07:25,080
Speaker 3: What's it called you've poisoned me to talk like you.

163
00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:25,880
Speaker 3: That's very annoying.

164
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:30,000
Speaker 1: Anyway. India, their squad always looks awesome when you've got players,

165
00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:33,320
Speaker 1: always looks good, but they don't always perform. They always

166
00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:35,040
Speaker 1: like to crumble in the semis. We've had a lot

167
00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:37,160
Speaker 1: of comments on our other posts when we talk about India,

168
00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:38,680
Speaker 1: they go, oh, are we going to win a final?

169
00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:39,280
Speaker 3: Are were going to do this?

170
00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:42,240
Speaker 1: They just haven't really performed in in probably our lifetime,

171
00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:44,920
Speaker 1: in World Cups. So they've got probably the best team

172
00:07:44,960 --> 00:07:46,720
Speaker 1: on paper. Can they performance?

173
00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:49,480
Speaker 3: This squad is cooked, it's unbelieved. How does shouldn't Gill

174
00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:50,280
Speaker 3: not make the squad?

175
00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:53,440
Speaker 1: Should girl Rinker is seeing? Are the traveling reserves or

176
00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:53,880
Speaker 1: not traveling?

177
00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:54,400
Speaker 3: Just reserves?

178
00:07:54,440 --> 00:07:57,400
Speaker 1: I think? And they're missing out. But then you look

179
00:07:57,400 --> 00:07:59,040
Speaker 1: at that team you go, I don't know who i'd replace?

180
00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:02,680
Speaker 3: Just an amazing Yeah, it's insane, isn't it. I've yeah,

181
00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:05,200
Speaker 3: I've written down here. Strength is literally just their batting

182
00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:08,760
Speaker 3: and spin bowling options. Yeah, they've listed Jadeja, ax, Arpatau,

183
00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:10,280
Speaker 3: Cool Deep and Chahal.

184
00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:14,200
Speaker 1: That is four awesome options. All of those bowlers will

185
00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:16,320
Speaker 1: be the best spinner at every other country. I think

186
00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:21,280
Speaker 1: Chahal is very underrated. Not Australia example, maybe yeah. Yeah.

187
00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:24,320
Speaker 3: And then for the weakness, I've put in fast bowling

188
00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:28,440
Speaker 3: depth because it is harsh. They've listed really only three

189
00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:32,640
Speaker 3: genuine fast bowlers Fash Deep seeing jasperit Bumer and Mohammed Sirrajy.

190
00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:35,160
Speaker 3: I'll get into this a bit later, but even though

191
00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:38,439
Speaker 3: the depth isn't there, those bowlers have the change ups

192
00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:39,680
Speaker 3: for these conditions.

193
00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:42,920
Speaker 1: So and just Bomans probably the most intimidating bowler.

194
00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:46,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, your c oh my god the moment, unless it's

195
00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:48,360
Speaker 3: Mitch Stark in the finale.

196
00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:54,800
Speaker 2: India ran number one in twenty twenty. Okay, sky Is

197
00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:58,520
Speaker 2: sky YadA is the number one twenty twenty batsman. So

198
00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:01,880
Speaker 2: they've they have the capability to win it. They've got

199
00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:04,360
Speaker 2: the they've got the best win percentage out of twenty

200
00:09:04,400 --> 00:09:07,760
Speaker 2: twenty games any nation. Yeah, sixty seven percent. Yeah or

201
00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:08,400
Speaker 2: something like that.

202
00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:08,800
Speaker 1: That's awesome.

203
00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:09,360
Speaker 3: Yeah.

204
00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:12,320
Speaker 2: So I've got the tools and they've got everything that

205
00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:13,160
Speaker 2: says they can.

206
00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:15,240
Speaker 1: Do it and win it. I just never do. This

207
00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:19,560
Speaker 1: is where past mark again is make the final is

208
00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:21,600
Speaker 1: almost winning with two teams in out of the team

209
00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:26,920
Speaker 1: we're already predicted the final that it is. Yeah, I

210
00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:29,199
Speaker 1: feel like for the other nations it's more semi finals

211
00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:31,560
Speaker 1: is a past mark, Yeah yeah, and then yeah people

212
00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:33,960
Speaker 1: in like if you're looking at an Aussie fan, for example,

213
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:35,720
Speaker 1: you're going to go, oh, we didn't make the final.

214
00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:37,720
Speaker 1: That's a joke, Like there'll be probably people angry. Whereas

215
00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:39,560
Speaker 1: you look at some other country name is India, India

216
00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:41,600
Speaker 1: just would go nuts. Well, they all think they're going

217
00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:44,160
Speaker 1: to win everything and they haven't. But this team has

218
00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:46,520
Speaker 1: to make the final. Just like Leo I said, the

219
00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:49,920
Speaker 1: guys that are missing out, it's just like you could

220
00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:51,800
Speaker 1: get some injuries and you've got shoming girl coming in

221
00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:54,240
Speaker 1: just coming in at three or four recreasing.

222
00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:56,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, I love this team. Jadeja, I think is going

223
00:09:56,559 --> 00:09:57,400
Speaker 3: to be the standoup.

224
00:09:57,440 --> 00:09:59,520
Speaker 2: If you're coll Is probably in the best twenty twenty

225
00:09:59,559 --> 00:10:00,800
Speaker 2: form of his career.

226
00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:04,760
Speaker 3: Leading he said Sky's number one player, he wasn't great

227
00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:05,920
Speaker 3: and I think Cooley.

228
00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:08,400
Speaker 1: Is right now is the hottest T twenty player. I'm

229
00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:10,559
Speaker 1: not talking about his lot. Sure he has a very

230
00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:11,040
Speaker 1: nice bear.

231
00:10:11,160 --> 00:10:13,600
Speaker 3: He does have a lovely vide but no bit of both.

232
00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:15,200
Speaker 3: Maybe he's very lucky.

233
00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:17,720
Speaker 1: Barbara's arm is not allowed to playing the uphell yeah

234
00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:20,960
Speaker 1: with his mono brow. Yeah, maybe I shouldn't bag bubbles. I

235
00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:23,760
Speaker 1: love Barbara's arm, all right. Next one, we've gone through

236
00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:32,679
Speaker 1: the enemy Pakistan, the enemy the mon bro Yeah, talking

237
00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:35,040
Speaker 1: about running through his fingers. We're gonna talk about Barbara's arm.

238
00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:37,120
Speaker 1: Obviously their squad hasn't been really.

239
00:10:36,960 --> 00:10:39,559
Speaker 3: Why haven't they released their squad? What are they doing Pakistan?

240
00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:41,199
Speaker 3: Are they going to bring out a surprise like we

241
00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:43,600
Speaker 3: got Gary from the Wound and he.

242
00:10:43,640 --> 00:10:44,760
Speaker 1: Goes one fifteen?

243
00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:46,480
Speaker 3: He's fourteen years old?

244
00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:48,920
Speaker 1: Like, what are they? Maybe they had a what was it? Held?

245
00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:52,280
Speaker 1: Was in the same show sixteen when he came over here,

246
00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:54,679
Speaker 1: might have a little sable sixteen. We'll just say that,

247
00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:57,000
Speaker 1: but you reckon, he looks old older than sixteen. I

248
00:10:57,080 --> 00:10:57,560
Speaker 1: just doubt it.

249
00:10:57,600 --> 00:10:58,560
Speaker 3: Anyway.

250
00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:01,400
Speaker 2: The quickest fast bowling worn up?

251
00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:04,040
Speaker 1: Yes, heading to the walk cup yep? Yes or no?

252
00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:06,640
Speaker 1: Probably on the spot.

253
00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:10,440
Speaker 3: Ralph bowls only one.

254
00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:14,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, they probably do, but Archer and would Yeah true. Yeah,

255
00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:16,439
Speaker 1: that's a good point. That's a good point. Yeah, we'll

256
00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:19,679
Speaker 1: get into them. Yeah, pummy scum, we'll get that. Will

257
00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:21,200
Speaker 1: have to be nice of you, maybe a little bit

258
00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:23,920
Speaker 1: nice to them Pakistan. Yeah, I don't know the squad.

259
00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:25,400
Speaker 1: The kid looks great. They did a kid.

260
00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:27,679
Speaker 3: That's the only thing that really will be ranking kids.

261
00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:34,400
Speaker 1: So eleven ghosts in the Pakistan. Who's going to be

262
00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:37,160
Speaker 1: their most important? But we know the big names. What

263
00:11:37,280 --> 00:11:38,800
Speaker 1: was one?

264
00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:41,480
Speaker 3: Yes, Tom that will be appearing on some of these shows.

265
00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:44,880
Speaker 3: Whiles away, Yeah, he loves mart I'm not going with

266
00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:45,720
Speaker 3: BB's arms.

267
00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:48,040
Speaker 2: We will Morahammed Risbond's number three.

268
00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:50,000
Speaker 1: He's a better Yeah.

269
00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:53,360
Speaker 2: I think it's a better tween twenty batsman. I think

270
00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:56,400
Speaker 2: he could probably decide a game more than Barbara's arm

271
00:11:56,400 --> 00:11:57,200
Speaker 2: with his explosive.

272
00:11:57,280 --> 00:11:59,160
Speaker 3: They have to be the opening power though, right because

273
00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:01,520
Speaker 3: I feel like times gone, Bubba at three or Bubba

274
00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:01,920
Speaker 3: at four?

275
00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:02,720
Speaker 1: What do they do again?

276
00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:04,839
Speaker 3: It has to be Barba and Rizwan at the top.

277
00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:10,199
Speaker 3: In my oh, they do have youngster pronunciation. Bear with me, Sime,

278
00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:10,720
Speaker 3: are you?

279
00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:11,800
Speaker 1: Yeah? That's it? Yeah?

280
00:12:11,880 --> 00:12:14,640
Speaker 3: But yep, yeah again, We'll have a look at what

281
00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:18,000
Speaker 3: they went with against Ireland. Yeah, are you? But might

282
00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:20,040
Speaker 3: just be testing out you are you? He's a young

283
00:12:20,040 --> 00:12:21,960
Speaker 3: player on the rise. But I just think Riswan and

284
00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:25,079
Speaker 3: Babba they've when they bat together, it's magic. It is

285
00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:27,400
Speaker 3: it is. I think we'll get into the pitch more

286
00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:30,880
Speaker 3: and more as we dissect it. But you need anchoring

287
00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:34,360
Speaker 3: like batsman that can anchor an innings. Rizwan can do that,

288
00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:36,280
Speaker 3: Buba can do that, and they can both hit when

289
00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:39,240
Speaker 3: they want to hit as well. It's probably the start

290
00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:42,240
Speaker 3: you need in these slower conditions and then you use

291
00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:45,280
Speaker 3: your heavy hitters to propel you. But ye fair cool.

292
00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:47,720
Speaker 1: So if we're going strength and weaknesses, I'd say strength

293
00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:51,360
Speaker 1: top order, but then it's the middle of the week

294
00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:53,439
Speaker 1: disorder because as you get lower down you're like, oh,

295
00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:55,560
Speaker 1: Bubba didn't make any runs, Rizwan didn't make any runs,

296
00:12:55,640 --> 00:12:57,600
Speaker 1: Like we really need to make runs on the top.

297
00:12:57,679 --> 00:13:01,120
Speaker 3: And then obviously they're fast balling. Is they have struggled

298
00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:04,600
Speaker 3: with the fifth bowler, like you've got Shaheena Friedi Muhammad

299
00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:05,520
Speaker 3: Amir is he playing?

300
00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:08,760
Speaker 1: That will be a huge yea fans in our comments

301
00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:10,520
Speaker 1: saying he's going to have anypayment, that will be a

302
00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:13,080
Speaker 1: huge in shut up. Khan is one of the most

303
00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:14,040
Speaker 1: underrated cricketers.

304
00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:18,559
Speaker 3: I think Naim Shah that fifth bowler, like Harris Ralph

305
00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:23,760
Speaker 3: is hit a ball, so that's probably just another weakness.

306
00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:26,800
Speaker 2: Get but on ball against almost any of these three guys,

307
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:28,520
Speaker 2: it's definitely gone to the rope.

308
00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:31,079
Speaker 1: Just pace off the bat. Ye all right, what's a

309
00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:34,040
Speaker 1: past mark do we think for Pakistan? I think is

310
00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:36,240
Speaker 1: it weird? Do you think they know the squad now?

311
00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:38,360
Speaker 1: They're just not releasing well. I thought there would be

312
00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:39,040
Speaker 1: a reckon.

313
00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:41,440
Speaker 3: I reckon they just want to see something out of

314
00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:42,880
Speaker 3: the T twenties that they've had.

315
00:13:44,360 --> 00:13:47,200
Speaker 1: Already finished. I thought they were playing against England in

316
00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:50,360
Speaker 1: the warm up game. They have to announce the squad.

317
00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:53,439
Speaker 3: It'd be the most Pakistan thing to forget announcing the

318
00:13:53,480 --> 00:13:57,160
Speaker 3: squad and then they forfeit they're not play.

319
00:13:57,520 --> 00:13:59,319
Speaker 1: It would be They've done some stupid things in cricket

320
00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:01,200
Speaker 1: over the years. So what do we think of the

321
00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:03,559
Speaker 1: pasta semis?

322
00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:06,880
Speaker 2: What do they finish They finish runners up against obviously

323
00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:08,079
Speaker 2: when they lost Australia.

324
00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:11,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, they Finland runners up to England. I was the

325
00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:14,000
Speaker 1: m CG for that match. That was the best, the

326
00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:16,000
Speaker 1: best spell and did not get rewarded for it.

327
00:14:16,080 --> 00:14:18,680
Speaker 3: That was amazing. I hated that game because Ben Stakes

328
00:14:18,720 --> 00:14:20,560
Speaker 3: won in the game, he should have been out so

329
00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:22,200
Speaker 3: many times the way the ball went past.

330
00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:26,960
Speaker 1: So we'll say Semis or maybe so they got Sei.

331
00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:29,120
Speaker 1: You go from the group states to Super eight. We'll

332
00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:31,040
Speaker 1: definitely think they're going to go through with India and

333
00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:35,640
Speaker 1: their gaps, yes, but then a quarters pretty much. Yeah,

334
00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:38,520
Speaker 1: and then you've got Semis after that. Yeah, it's going

335
00:14:38,600 --> 00:14:40,760
Speaker 1: to be will be tight, but Semis.

336
00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:43,400
Speaker 2: Fair enough so they won't have to play they won't

337
00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:45,880
Speaker 2: have to play India either in the quarter.

338
00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:47,120
Speaker 1: In the group stage, but not yeah, not after that,

339
00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:49,480
Speaker 1: so that's handy. Yeah, alright, so we go on Pakistan,

340
00:14:49,840 --> 00:14:50,880
Speaker 1: but release your squad?

341
00:14:50,920 --> 00:14:51,880
Speaker 3: Come on, what do you what are you doing?

342
00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:55,560
Speaker 1: All right? England definitely not our favorite team in the world,

343
00:14:55,840 --> 00:14:57,520
Speaker 1: as Ossie that.

344
00:14:58,640 --> 00:15:02,080
Speaker 2: We've gotta we've got to actually focus here and actually

345
00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:04,880
Speaker 2: shed some law. And actually they've got some good players

346
00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:05,800
Speaker 2: and some good form they do.

347
00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:09,160
Speaker 3: They've they've always some bad players out of form like

348
00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:10,960
Speaker 3: I've listed there.

349
00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:12,560
Speaker 1: Okay, so we'll have a look at their squad. You've

350
00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:14,640
Speaker 1: got Joss Butler captain. He's been a start, he's been

351
00:15:14,720 --> 00:15:17,200
Speaker 1: informed most of their team are just two twenty specialists,

352
00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:19,400
Speaker 1: which I always love about the English team. Joff for

353
00:15:19,480 --> 00:15:22,680
Speaker 1: Archer back in it's going to be interested for doing.

354
00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:24,880
Speaker 1: He's been injured for two years pretty much, so that'd

355
00:15:24,920 --> 00:15:28,480
Speaker 1: be interesting. I remember seeing him the scariest, scaredest, Oh

356
00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:30,400
Speaker 1: my god, I can't even talk most scared I've ever

357
00:15:30,440 --> 00:15:32,360
Speaker 1: been with seeing Josh for Archer, bowling to see Smith

358
00:15:32,360 --> 00:15:33,880
Speaker 1: and knocking h me out a laws. That's one of

359
00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:35,600
Speaker 1: the craziest things ever. So if you can find that

360
00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:38,600
Speaker 1: form where batsman are literally scared to face him, then

361
00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:40,000
Speaker 1: he'll be probably like one of the best balls in

362
00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:42,280
Speaker 1: the whole tournament. But as you said, he hasn't played

363
00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:43,840
Speaker 1: much at all, so is that a little bit of

364
00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:45,240
Speaker 1: a weakness. I think it is.

365
00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:48,400
Speaker 3: And to speak to the form of some players, yes,

366
00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:51,560
Speaker 3: they've got players in form like Will Jacks, Sam Curran

367
00:15:51,760 --> 00:15:55,240
Speaker 3: playing well in the IP Phil Saltz as well, but

368
00:15:55,280 --> 00:15:58,600
Speaker 3: then Mo and Ali his form wasn't great in the IPL.

369
00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:01,800
Speaker 1: Archer, as we said, Harry Brook, what's he been doing

370
00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:04,520
Speaker 1: like he was? Because he's been injured as well, doesn't he?

371
00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:08,600
Speaker 1: I think he put out have been playing like second

372
00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:12,920
Speaker 1: cricket cricket second county level, which why is he playing

373
00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:13,360
Speaker 1: in the two?

374
00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:15,880
Speaker 3: And Living Stonds another one who's kind of flown under

375
00:16:15,880 --> 00:16:17,960
Speaker 3: the raidar a couple of years ago, Will saying he's

376
00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:20,600
Speaker 3: the best round in T twenty cricket now, like he's

377
00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:22,080
Speaker 3: hasn't played in many tournaments.

378
00:16:22,080 --> 00:16:25,120
Speaker 1: He hasn't like he was with the Scorches.

379
00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:28,640
Speaker 3: Yes, yes he was at Punjab in the I p L,

380
00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:31,520
Speaker 3: but did not have a good tournament. So form of

381
00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:33,040
Speaker 3: those key players is going to be interesting.

382
00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:34,720
Speaker 2: We know he should be sitting on the couch with

383
00:16:34,760 --> 00:16:36,040
Speaker 2: his son watching this game on the TV.

384
00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:38,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's old and not good.

385
00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:40,840
Speaker 1: They've got a good mix of They've got a good

386
00:16:40,920 --> 00:16:44,120
Speaker 1: mix of age here in the squad with young and old.

387
00:16:44,680 --> 00:16:46,280
Speaker 1: But I look at the squad and I'm just not

388
00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:51,840
Speaker 1: it's not excited. Though I'm pretty excited. I'm excited for

389
00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:52,360
Speaker 1: Will jabs.

390
00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:56,320
Speaker 3: There's a lot. I just think it's an explosive team.

391
00:16:56,400 --> 00:16:58,800
Speaker 3: Like you've got probably Butler and.

392
00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:04,200
Speaker 1: They just need bestow. You know you've got Sam.

393
00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:07,480
Speaker 3: You can't come about best.

394
00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:08,239
Speaker 1: He did really well.

395
00:17:08,640 --> 00:17:11,920
Speaker 3: He did pretty well for him. I don't want to

396
00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:12,320
Speaker 3: talk about it.

397
00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:12,880
Speaker 1: But he's a.

398
00:17:12,840 --> 00:17:15,320
Speaker 3: Flog but like he's a good cricketer. We have to

399
00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:18,960
Speaker 3: acknowledge that. And in the middle order like you've got

400
00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:24,240
Speaker 3: Will Jackson, form Sam Carr and combat anywhere good all rounders.

401
00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:27,359
Speaker 3: It's it is an exciting team. I think it's I

402
00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:30,560
Speaker 3: don't know if it's a like a title winning team

403
00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:32,760
Speaker 3: has the potential to but it also has the potential

404
00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:34,840
Speaker 3: to bow out in the Super eight like they did

405
00:17:35,280 --> 00:17:39,000
Speaker 3: last in the Ode. So you're thinking past mark semifinal.

406
00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:39,840
Speaker 1: I think it has to be.

407
00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:43,639
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think something else can make it. But you

408
00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:47,200
Speaker 3: can have a past four teams as a pass mark

409
00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:50,240
Speaker 3: to make the semi final because that's that's their level.

410
00:17:50,280 --> 00:17:52,080
Speaker 3: If they make it, then they fail. So yeah, their

411
00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:54,480
Speaker 3: level is pushing at least for the semi final. Yeah,

412
00:17:54,480 --> 00:17:58,560
Speaker 3: that's that's what I say. If they don't make the

413
00:17:58,600 --> 00:18:00,119
Speaker 3: semi final, I think it's a fair.

414
00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:02,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I agree. There is still a few guys here,

415
00:18:02,280 --> 00:18:04,080
Speaker 1: like like we're talking about Will Jacks. I know he's

416
00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:06,439
Speaker 1: been good in IPL he hasn't. Has he been amazing

417
00:18:06,480 --> 00:18:09,240
Speaker 1: for England, No so, but he's in freest Top lest

418
00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:10,200
Speaker 1: like Sulta Arena.

419
00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:13,320
Speaker 3: Jackson is the exact type of player that these conditions

420
00:18:13,320 --> 00:18:15,080
Speaker 3: will suit with his bowling and his batting style.

421
00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:17,200
Speaker 1: And they do have the number one twenty twenty bowler

422
00:18:17,280 --> 00:18:22,400
Speaker 1: in in the world. Add yeah he does, he does.

423
00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:24,280
Speaker 3: He can change it up so well.

424
00:18:24,280 --> 00:18:24,760
Speaker 1: For a legie.

425
00:18:24,840 --> 00:18:27,240
Speaker 2: So even though I think they're the third favorite scorn

426
00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:30,359
Speaker 2: of the book makers, but like, are they considered I

427
00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:31,840
Speaker 2: kind of if I'm saying this, but like.

428
00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:35,600
Speaker 1: A dark horse just beat the powerhouses. They're still a

429
00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:38,200
Speaker 1: power I still are a powerhouse. I still think they're

430
00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:40,600
Speaker 1: like the fourth or fifth best team, not not not

431
00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:41,760
Speaker 1: in the odds, but I think I think.

432
00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:42,960
Speaker 3: But anyway, we'll get into that.

433
00:18:43,040 --> 00:18:45,320
Speaker 1: So past mark semi finals are around that around the

434
00:18:45,359 --> 00:18:47,200
Speaker 1: market has to be around the mark of the four

435
00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:49,480
Speaker 1: best teams, is what we're saying. Yeah, yeah, fair enough.

436
00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:51,520
Speaker 1: Now we're getting too New Zealand week came Inland a

437
00:18:51,560 --> 00:18:53,400
Speaker 1: bit of credit there, so that's all right. New Zealand

438
00:18:53,640 --> 00:18:56,720
Speaker 1: obviously captain by Kay Williamson. He's dropped off a little

439
00:18:56,720 --> 00:18:59,680
Speaker 1: bit of form, which is y sad because he's went abolutely.

440
00:18:59,280 --> 00:19:02,400
Speaker 3: Great news Ellen players, will you to retire in this

441
00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:05,560
Speaker 3: because you just love finishing up New Zealand players.

442
00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:07,880
Speaker 1: I'll tell you who I won't retires. Rutan Revenger. He

443
00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:13,639
Speaker 1: dominated the last World Cup, World Cup. He was playing

444
00:19:13,640 --> 00:19:15,119
Speaker 1: it like you know.

445
00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:18,080
Speaker 2: Actually he is only one of two players that are

446
00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:20,080
Speaker 2: different from the last twenty twenty World Cup.

447
00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:21,600
Speaker 3: Squad, so that means they're old.

448
00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:25,000
Speaker 2: It's just the similar to Australia, it's always the same balls.

449
00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:27,600
Speaker 2: They've got the pretty much the exact same squad as

450
00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:29,120
Speaker 2: the last World Cup, except.

451
00:19:28,760 --> 00:19:31,720
Speaker 1: For anything wrong with that. And Matt Henry, yeah, I

452
00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:32,119
Speaker 1: don't think.

453
00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:34,879
Speaker 2: I think there's anything wrong with experience. It's good to

454
00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:36,920
Speaker 2: keep everyone in the same well.

455
00:19:36,760 --> 00:19:40,520
Speaker 1: You've said that in the strengths experience, yeah, yeah, balance side.

456
00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:43,920
Speaker 3: They've got some young stars as you mentioned Revendra finn

457
00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:47,439
Speaker 3: Allen as well taking that Martin Guptol role. And then

458
00:19:47,480 --> 00:19:50,200
Speaker 3: the experience. You know Trump Bolt, who I adore and

459
00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:53,320
Speaker 3: if you're watching this trend, I love you. He will

460
00:19:53,320 --> 00:19:56,240
Speaker 3: be watching this. How the experience sat you know Phillips

461
00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:57,040
Speaker 3: as well as a good.

462
00:19:56,880 --> 00:19:59,840
Speaker 1: Bat Sonway and Mitchell. They've both got plenty of experience.

463
00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:03,000
Speaker 3: It's a really well balanced side. The weakness I put

464
00:20:03,040 --> 00:20:05,199
Speaker 3: in is do they just have that lack of like

465
00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:08,359
Speaker 3: that killer edge. You look at Australia and when the

466
00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:13,439
Speaker 3: games on the line, you've got stark even commings.

467
00:20:13,280 --> 00:20:16,120
Speaker 2: Against no one stood up for New Zealand when Tim

468
00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:16,840
Speaker 2: David was.

469
00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:19,320
Speaker 3: Like, did New Zealand have that like if it's a

470
00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:22,880
Speaker 3: do or die final. Is Tim Sowley going to bowl

471
00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:24,720
Speaker 3: an absolute thunderbolt to get someone out.

472
00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:27,479
Speaker 1: He doesn't great bowler, he doesn't bowl fast enough. But

473
00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:29,440
Speaker 1: the other thing is with their batter is a lot

474
00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:31,359
Speaker 1: of them are very good at home, but they're playing

475
00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:34,320
Speaker 1: on rugby grounds that are lots more. I just want

476
00:20:34,320 --> 00:20:36,440
Speaker 1: to see if Finaleen, for example, Allen was like even

477
00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:39,000
Speaker 1: gone really well against Australia. Yeah, I wouldn't mind seeing

478
00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:41,320
Speaker 1: them playing on a big circle ground on a stupid

479
00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:44,200
Speaker 1: square ground in New Zealand when he's going well a

480
00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:45,760
Speaker 1: lot bigger than the New Zealan grounds, which are the

481
00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:46,840
Speaker 1: smallest in the world. I think interesting.

482
00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:50,360
Speaker 2: Their fielding is what's going to have to bring them

483
00:20:50,359 --> 00:20:52,560
Speaker 2: to that level where if they've got any chance of.

484
00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:56,760
Speaker 3: Horrible normally good fields like Glenn Phillips is one of

485
00:20:56,800 --> 00:20:58,800
Speaker 3: the best fields in the world and he was horrible

486
00:20:58,800 --> 00:21:00,000
Speaker 3: in that series against Australia.

487
00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:02,719
Speaker 1: Were horrible to bits, but a couple of because if

488
00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:05,080
Speaker 1: I was doing it course.

489
00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:07,840
Speaker 3: New Zealand the game, a couple of yeah he did,

490
00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:10,280
Speaker 3: he did, and he's a great fielder. Avenger is a

491
00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:13,399
Speaker 3: solid fielder like, Yeah, I don't know. They're not definitely

492
00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:14,359
Speaker 3: not the worst fielding side.

493
00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:18,320
Speaker 2: So yeah, they're just not exciting again, So.

494
00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:20,399
Speaker 3: He's think England are exciting. You know, I think New

495
00:21:20,520 --> 00:21:22,919
Speaker 3: Zealand are excited. I'll give you New Zealand.

496
00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:25,160
Speaker 1: But who are there like New Zealand? Who are there?

497
00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:29,400
Speaker 3: Like? Yeah that I'm looking like, I want to watch.

498
00:21:29,640 --> 00:21:30,080
Speaker 1: I want to watch.

499
00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:34,120
Speaker 3: I want to watch Revenger of play. Yeah he does.

500
00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:37,640
Speaker 1: I I love him more than the field.

501
00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:39,320
Speaker 2: But you have a look at some of the battles,

502
00:21:39,359 --> 00:21:42,000
Speaker 2: like they weren't great throughout the IPIL either. Yeah, well

503
00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:48,120
Speaker 2: Mitchell was poor, gingdra was probably underwhelming, especially the statsky standards.

504
00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:50,040
Speaker 1: But he's going to keep.

505
00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:52,040
Speaker 3: You don't need a keeper.

506
00:21:52,240 --> 00:21:54,440
Speaker 1: Actually who they didn't? They rotate.

507
00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:59,400
Speaker 3: Keep, but he can keep. I'd rather have him bowl.

508
00:21:59,520 --> 00:22:01,920
Speaker 1: Who do they have someone they had?

509
00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:03,760
Speaker 3: Does Chapman keep? Yeah?

510
00:22:03,800 --> 00:22:06,320
Speaker 1: Maybe? Actually I don't think he does. You know, we'll

511
00:22:06,320 --> 00:22:06,600
Speaker 1: have to look.

512
00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:09,040
Speaker 3: It's probably someone really obviously that we're missing.

513
00:22:09,440 --> 00:22:09,840
Speaker 1: Com Wway.

514
00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:15,560
Speaker 3: No, No, I think, yeah, there we go, there we go.

515
00:22:15,720 --> 00:22:17,240
Speaker 3: But Conway is not like I don't think he's a

516
00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:20,280
Speaker 3: specialist keeper. Comment if I'm wrong, But I don't think

517
00:22:20,280 --> 00:22:23,159
Speaker 3: he's like a like being a main keeper throughout his

518
00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:23,720
Speaker 3: entire or.

519
00:22:23,760 --> 00:22:27,000
Speaker 2: In the most recent series against Pakistan, Tom Blondell keeping Tom.

520
00:22:27,280 --> 00:22:29,400
Speaker 3: I don't mind being Tom got a bit of time

521
00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:31,280
Speaker 3: for him. Yeah, yeah, he's pretty good.

522
00:22:31,520 --> 00:22:35,760
Speaker 1: He's had to look Tim Safer. They actually around a

523
00:22:35,760 --> 00:22:38,800
Speaker 1: bit around. I had to look at fin Allen one

524
00:22:38,880 --> 00:22:42,080
Speaker 1: sixty five strike rate. Yeah, if he can stay at that,

525
00:22:42,160 --> 00:22:43,439
Speaker 1: then he's going to be their X factor.

526
00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:45,760
Speaker 3: He can stay at that. But the problem is that

527
00:22:45,800 --> 00:22:48,320
Speaker 3: one hundred and sixty five strike rate is like twenty

528
00:22:48,359 --> 00:22:51,080
Speaker 3: five of ten and when you rather they need like

529
00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:55,040
Speaker 3: a big score from Yeah, okay, not fair enough.

530
00:22:55,560 --> 00:22:58,639
Speaker 1: So what's their past mark? When that one semi final,

531
00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:02,200
Speaker 1: semifinal another semi final team. As I said, you can

532
00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:04,720
Speaker 1: have many teams. I'm going to go Sei, I'm going

533
00:23:04,800 --> 00:23:07,359
Speaker 1: to say lesson that. I think, like I've said, I

534
00:23:07,440 --> 00:23:11,320
Speaker 1: think I'm getting old. They don't have T twenty specific players.

535
00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:12,919
Speaker 3: I think you're letting them off your stats go they

536
00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:13,880
Speaker 3: could have they done.

537
00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:15,840
Speaker 2: They gonna feel he's a group, don't they.

538
00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:18,520
Speaker 1: I think it's I'll make it out of their group, obviously,

539
00:23:18,560 --> 00:23:21,480
Speaker 1: but I don't think they're going to be right up there.

540
00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:24,879
Speaker 1: West Indies, Afghanistan, Uganda, pop In New Guinea their past

541
00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:27,600
Speaker 1: mark is they will lose to West Indies. That that's

542
00:23:27,840 --> 00:23:30,199
Speaker 1: that might be might be cool later on, there we go,

543
00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:33,000
Speaker 1: all right, Next one South Africa. Lera for some reason

544
00:23:33,040 --> 00:23:33,600
Speaker 1: has always had.

545
00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:38,359
Speaker 3: A soft spot for the I wouldn't saying, yeah, I

546
00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:40,359
Speaker 3: love Ab but he's not in the Boddy squad, is he?

547
00:23:40,960 --> 00:23:44,000
Speaker 1: He's not in the bloody squad? Apparently Adam Markham captain.

548
00:23:44,240 --> 00:23:45,560
Speaker 1: Really good squad, pretty good.

549
00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:48,159
Speaker 3: I don't have a soft spot for them. I was

550
00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:50,120
Speaker 3: just trying to talk myself into whether they could win

551
00:23:50,160 --> 00:23:53,879
Speaker 3: the whole thing. Okay, we'll find out later they haven't.

552
00:23:53,920 --> 00:23:57,120
Speaker 2: They haven't made the final, the World Cup finals since

553
00:23:57,200 --> 00:23:57,880
Speaker 2: twenty fourteen.

554
00:23:58,080 --> 00:24:00,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, and they've they are so they're similar to India.

555
00:24:00,760 --> 00:24:01,920
Speaker 1: I like to crumble in the big games.

556
00:24:01,960 --> 00:24:04,399
Speaker 3: What I would say is though this the eleven I

557
00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:06,920
Speaker 3: think they're going to put out is very balanced. You've

558
00:24:06,920 --> 00:24:10,480
Speaker 3: got set openers, set middle order bats, lower order bats,

559
00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:11,520
Speaker 3: and you've got five.

560
00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:15,720
Speaker 1: Class and coming in from redrics as well.

561
00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:19,879
Speaker 3: Like it's a it's a very well structured team. I

562
00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:23,280
Speaker 3: was considering having them winning the whole thing because I

563
00:24:23,480 --> 00:24:26,959
Speaker 3: like their team, but I don't know if it's going

564
00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:28,960
Speaker 3: to be a team that excels.

565
00:24:28,680 --> 00:24:29,800
Speaker 1: In these conditions.

566
00:24:30,160 --> 00:24:33,600
Speaker 3: Look at their bowling, Roberta and if Robarta doesn't fire,

567
00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:37,239
Speaker 3: they know. But they are great bowlers the Express, but

568
00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:40,119
Speaker 3: not Express on these conditions exactly.

569
00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:43,000
Speaker 1: Rada is one of the best short format bawls.

570
00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:48,120
Speaker 5: He is, but is he like suited for these Caribbean

571
00:24:48,359 --> 00:24:51,120
Speaker 5: I think it's it's sort of like we'll have to

572
00:24:51,240 --> 00:24:53,560
Speaker 5: see a few games before we can answer.

573
00:24:53,320 --> 00:24:55,239
Speaker 3: That, and they need I don't know if they've got

574
00:24:55,240 --> 00:24:57,560
Speaker 3: a batsman that can anchor in innings like Da Cook

575
00:24:57,720 --> 00:25:00,880
Speaker 3: is very much go go go from the top. Markham

576
00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:04,119
Speaker 3: similar class and we've seen he's just berserk when he

577
00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:06,080
Speaker 3: gets on in the Yeah, same as Stubs, as I

578
00:25:06,080 --> 00:25:06,800
Speaker 3: hope Stubbs play.

579
00:25:06,880 --> 00:25:07,680
Speaker 1: They can both go to on.

580
00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:10,359
Speaker 3: Just strick Rade against Stubs could be one that he's

581
00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:13,280
Speaker 3: awesome in the IPL and then fails for South Africa

582
00:25:13,640 --> 00:25:13,960
Speaker 3: as well.

583
00:25:14,040 --> 00:25:15,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, so I don't know.

584
00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:18,600
Speaker 3: I like, I really like this team, but yeah, it's

585
00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:20,160
Speaker 3: how they go on these conditions.

586
00:25:20,160 --> 00:25:21,880
Speaker 1: I think, Yeah, what you said about the fast balls,

587
00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:25,400
Speaker 1: you've got Nokia, Robarta, Jansen, who else have you got.

588
00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:27,480
Speaker 3: It's well balanced because you've got to fire quicks and

589
00:25:27,520 --> 00:25:28,760
Speaker 3: you got left arm with Jansen.

590
00:25:28,840 --> 00:25:31,159
Speaker 1: But I think you're right about in these conditions you

591
00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:32,760
Speaker 1: need to do a few slow balls or a few

592
00:25:33,240 --> 00:25:34,920
Speaker 1: out the back of the hand, which I don't think

593
00:25:35,280 --> 00:25:36,960
Speaker 1: Robarda has that in his arsenal.

594
00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:39,520
Speaker 3: It's very much like what you said with Pakistan, Marcus.

595
00:25:39,560 --> 00:25:41,520
Speaker 3: Just use the pace of the ball and that you

596
00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:43,479
Speaker 3: can score your boundaries a lot behind square.

597
00:25:43,760 --> 00:25:45,120
Speaker 1: Ye for sure.

598
00:25:45,160 --> 00:25:45,880
Speaker 3: What's the past mark?

599
00:25:46,280 --> 00:25:46,480
Speaker 1: Again?

600
00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:49,280
Speaker 3: Probably makes semis like, oh no, I think it is.

601
00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:52,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I think they're going to be better than

602
00:25:52,280 --> 00:25:55,920
Speaker 1: the good enough like yeah, then the six teams we've

603
00:25:55,920 --> 00:25:57,320
Speaker 1: talked about are all.

604
00:25:57,760 --> 00:25:59,280
Speaker 3: Like the best. Probably they can all win it.

605
00:25:59,400 --> 00:26:02,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think saying they're going to be better than

606
00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:05,480
Speaker 1: New Zealand, I think they've got an easy group. Yeah,

607
00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:06,919
Speaker 1: and they've got a very easy group because you've got

608
00:26:06,960 --> 00:26:11,280
Speaker 1: what is it Westernislanka that New Zealand the potential to

609
00:26:11,280 --> 00:26:11,640
Speaker 1: be the best.

610
00:26:12,520 --> 00:26:14,520
Speaker 3: They're they're in that group because Westerns.

611
00:26:14,160 --> 00:26:15,080
Speaker 1: Are in the New Zealand group.

612
00:26:15,359 --> 00:26:17,919
Speaker 3: Oh yes, sorry, they have Slanka in Afghanistan. I believe,

613
00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:19,240
Speaker 3: no banglades.

614
00:26:19,560 --> 00:26:20,800
Speaker 1: But they should talk that group.

615
00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:23,400
Speaker 3: Yeah they will, they will, they will, Okay, they will,

616
00:26:23,480 --> 00:26:26,240
Speaker 3: what do you mean they will? Yeah, they will not Actually,

617
00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:27,560
Speaker 3: maybe they won't. I'll get into it.

618
00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:29,760
Speaker 1: Someone that we're going to talk about. Oh, there you go,

619
00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:33,000
Speaker 1: all right, Afghanistan, next one, Afghanistan.

620
00:26:33,280 --> 00:26:35,960
Speaker 3: You like Afghanistan. Yeah, the second favorite team.

621
00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:38,399
Speaker 1: Rashik Khant is probably one of the most love cricketers

622
00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:39,880
Speaker 1: in the world. When it comes to the Big Bash,

623
00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:42,840
Speaker 1: dominates with the Adelaide strikers. I absolutely love watching him. Then

624
00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:44,800
Speaker 1: they've got a couple other guys. Majeeb is awesome.

625
00:26:44,800 --> 00:26:46,000
Speaker 3: Their spinning is good, isn't it.

626
00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:47,720
Speaker 1: Spin is amazing. They've got probably a couple of the

627
00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:51,920
Speaker 1: best spinners in this whole tornament. Can't still Narby nor Ahmed.

628
00:26:52,920 --> 00:26:56,320
Speaker 3: And then the bowling Fhasal Huk Farouki played for the

629
00:26:56,400 --> 00:26:57,679
Speaker 3: Thunder Sidney Thunder.

630
00:26:57,560 --> 00:27:00,080
Speaker 1: Is either one with this slinger Malinga. Actually no, I

631
00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:00,600
Speaker 1: think he's.

632
00:27:00,600 --> 00:27:04,000
Speaker 3: Left arm left and he's a really good death bowler. Yes,

633
00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:06,000
Speaker 3: that's And then you've got the vnale Huk who's a

634
00:27:06,040 --> 00:27:08,200
Speaker 3: really good death bowler too, but he's right arm. And

635
00:27:08,280 --> 00:27:10,280
Speaker 3: the bowling is not too bad, to be honest, very

636
00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:12,560
Speaker 3: good bowling. It's come a long way, let's say that,

637
00:27:13,240 --> 00:27:15,360
Speaker 3: to come a long way in cricket in general, I.

638
00:27:15,320 --> 00:27:16,800
Speaker 1: Think they finished.

639
00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:19,879
Speaker 2: So they finished one game outside of the oh do

640
00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:20,640
Speaker 2: I World Cup.

641
00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:25,560
Speaker 5: Yeah, finals, as on the ropes they did.

642
00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:27,080
Speaker 3: It was Maxi's game.

643
00:27:27,320 --> 00:27:29,200
Speaker 2: If they well, they probably still wouldn't have made it

644
00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:31,679
Speaker 2: through based on that run rate, but they could have.

645
00:27:31,720 --> 00:27:35,960
Speaker 1: They could show out for one hundred because they had ninety. Yeah,

646
00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:38,639
Speaker 1: that's actually crazy that they how much they've improved in

647
00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:41,560
Speaker 1: the past. You just crazy go through easy beats, but

648
00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:43,879
Speaker 1: they've just built. It's because a lot of guys in

649
00:27:43,880 --> 00:27:45,960
Speaker 1: the world now teach when he's taking over. Obviously cricket

650
00:27:45,960 --> 00:27:48,560
Speaker 1: and everyone's talking about they all their guys are playing

651
00:27:48,560 --> 00:27:49,360
Speaker 1: in some of the biggest to.

652
00:27:49,600 --> 00:27:52,280
Speaker 3: We've invested a lot in that as well. Also want

653
00:27:52,320 --> 00:27:56,000
Speaker 3: to talk about Gerbas who actually replaced Full Soot for Coldkada.

654
00:27:56,119 --> 00:27:58,399
Speaker 3: Yes he did. Yes, he's a really good top order

655
00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:01,359
Speaker 3: about he's young, he's a key before them. I just

656
00:28:01,400 --> 00:28:04,240
Speaker 3: want to watch as well alongside Omer's as well as

657
00:28:04,240 --> 00:28:07,120
Speaker 3: an all round I believe. So there is some talent there.

658
00:28:07,240 --> 00:28:08,680
Speaker 1: That talent they've got.

659
00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:10,000
Speaker 2: What's a past market?

660
00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:11,000
Speaker 3: This is a tough one.

661
00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:13,400
Speaker 1: I think it's I think they're the rest of the group.

662
00:28:13,520 --> 00:28:16,600
Speaker 1: So yeah, playoffs finals, I think the top two of

663
00:28:16,640 --> 00:28:18,560
Speaker 1: the group super eight, they'll get to the Super Yeah.

664
00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:20,680
Speaker 1: I think I've got to make it past the group stage.

665
00:28:21,400 --> 00:28:21,800
Speaker 1: The group.

666
00:28:22,680 --> 00:28:25,119
Speaker 3: Yeah, they've got enough good players where you can't really

667
00:28:25,359 --> 00:28:27,720
Speaker 3: let them off with like oh you bout out in

668
00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:29,240
Speaker 3: the group stage.

669
00:28:29,280 --> 00:28:31,600
Speaker 1: So they've got the West Indies, New Zealand, Uganda.

670
00:28:33,400 --> 00:28:36,440
Speaker 3: I think personally, I think they past make it through.

671
00:28:36,520 --> 00:28:38,880
Speaker 3: I think they make it through that group over the

672
00:28:38,880 --> 00:28:40,960
Speaker 3: West Indies. I know Windows are at home, but.

673
00:28:40,840 --> 00:28:42,920
Speaker 1: I think because it's Winders at home, they've been really

674
00:28:42,920 --> 00:28:45,000
Speaker 1: bad and we're going to talk about it. I think

675
00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:49,040
Speaker 1: the Windows will be top two with New Zealand. Obviously

676
00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:51,800
Speaker 1: we already talked about them. But yeah, Afghanistan, they're not bad.

677
00:28:52,160 --> 00:28:55,840
Speaker 1: I think that Afghanistan will be a lot of people's

678
00:28:55,840 --> 00:28:57,840
Speaker 1: second team, a lot of Aussies, a lot of Keys

679
00:28:58,000 --> 00:28:59,640
Speaker 1: or maybe not Key, the same group, but some other

680
00:28:59,680 --> 00:29:03,720
Speaker 1: countries or big game were talking about the I'll talking

681
00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:06,960
Speaker 1: about the Windies. We'll get into them right now. I'm

682
00:29:06,960 --> 00:29:09,840
Speaker 1: not saying your worst already, that's all that matters. I

683
00:29:09,840 --> 00:29:12,240
Speaker 1: already said it before you got Robin powered the captain.

684
00:29:12,280 --> 00:29:13,640
Speaker 1: I don't why keep talking about the captains. I just

685
00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:17,360
Speaker 1: like talking about their players. Both Joseph's. We love talking

686
00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:20,360
Speaker 1: about Shama Joseph. He literally was the talk of the

687
00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:22,920
Speaker 1: town in Australia when he was over here. I could

688
00:29:22,960 --> 00:29:24,200
Speaker 1: just talk about him for the half now, but we

689
00:29:24,240 --> 00:29:25,960
Speaker 1: probably talk about some other ones. What are you guys

690
00:29:25,960 --> 00:29:28,360
Speaker 1: recking about West Indies leads? They're such a mixed bag.

691
00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:32,280
Speaker 2: They didn't make the they didn't make the ODI World Cup,

692
00:29:32,920 --> 00:29:35,720
Speaker 2: although the twenty twenty squad probably looks a little bit

693
00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:38,120
Speaker 2: more refined and yeah, they just got the players who

694
00:29:38,160 --> 00:29:41,120
Speaker 2: can do everything. That's all so good about West Indians

695
00:29:41,160 --> 00:29:43,640
Speaker 2: in general. It's just that they're so somebody around and

696
00:29:43,680 --> 00:29:47,120
Speaker 2: naturally gifted cricket yep. So I want to see them

697
00:29:47,160 --> 00:29:50,480
Speaker 2: do well because everyone loves when the West Indies play well,

698
00:29:50,520 --> 00:29:53,840
Speaker 2: no matter if you're going back from nineteen eighties so fun. Yeah,

699
00:29:54,080 --> 00:29:58,000
Speaker 2: I think the biggest factor here is Nicholas. Nicholas Paran

700
00:29:58,120 --> 00:29:58,640
Speaker 2: friend of the show.

701
00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:01,920
Speaker 1: He always the biggest I think he is because he

702
00:30:01,920 --> 00:30:03,160
Speaker 1: could be one of the he could be the best

703
00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:04,800
Speaker 1: batsman in this torn bat.

704
00:30:05,440 --> 00:30:07,400
Speaker 3: I'm not asking whether you know or I'm just.

705
00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:11,480
Speaker 1: Four four I think, just just like I saw that

706
00:30:11,520 --> 00:30:14,080
Speaker 1: MAXI roll where I think he doesn't have to knuckle

707
00:30:14,120 --> 00:30:16,080
Speaker 1: down because hopefully someone in the top three has made

708
00:30:16,080 --> 00:30:18,520
Speaker 1: an okay score and he can just come in. Actually,

709
00:30:18,520 --> 00:30:20,640
Speaker 1: I wouldn't even mind putting in like five, even five

710
00:30:20,720 --> 00:30:22,320
Speaker 1: or six. I reckon just just to.

711
00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:24,480
Speaker 3: Come in because he can just go from ball one.

712
00:30:24,480 --> 00:30:26,720
Speaker 3: That's what absolutely loves. I put Hermier at five and

713
00:30:26,840 --> 00:30:29,720
Speaker 3: him at four. Yeah, okay, yeah, but their batting lineup

714
00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:32,200
Speaker 3: genuinely looks really good. You've got Dre Russ who's been

715
00:30:32,240 --> 00:30:35,520
Speaker 3: in great form. Forkkata, You've got who it might have

716
00:30:35,560 --> 00:30:36,080
Speaker 3: been decent.

717
00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:39,160
Speaker 1: The all rounders are some of the best. You've got.

718
00:30:40,280 --> 00:30:42,840
Speaker 3: You've got to kill Hussein. Yeah, great bowler, he was

719
00:30:42,840 --> 00:30:45,400
Speaker 3: great for the Renegade. Yes, and he's a good bat too,

720
00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:50,760
Speaker 3: Jason Holder. You've got Alzari Joseph with the ball. Yep,

721
00:30:51,040 --> 00:30:52,560
Speaker 3: there's some really good quality in.

722
00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:54,640
Speaker 1: This Jamar Joseph actually showed that he can hit a

723
00:30:54,680 --> 00:30:56,920
Speaker 1: bomb as well when he can just start a team

724
00:30:56,960 --> 00:30:59,720
Speaker 1: off in the Test matches. So I genuinely have high

725
00:30:59,760 --> 00:31:01,520
Speaker 1: hopes this team. I know they didn't even make what

726
00:31:01,640 --> 00:31:03,640
Speaker 1: was it the last ten Teach twenty Old Cup. They've

727
00:31:03,680 --> 00:31:06,480
Speaker 1: won two. Well, they didn't make the World Cups. Sorry,

728
00:31:06,560 --> 00:31:09,840
Speaker 1: They've won two World Cups before, equal most with England,

729
00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:12,680
Speaker 1: which is very surprising considering they've been so up and

730
00:31:12,720 --> 00:31:16,160
Speaker 1: down in form. But twenty sixteen they won their last one. Yeah,

731
00:31:16,240 --> 00:31:19,560
Speaker 1: and then they're just teach twenty specialists West Indies. You go, oh, yeah,

732
00:31:19,840 --> 00:31:21,760
Speaker 1: who's this West Indian player? I only see him just

733
00:31:21,800 --> 00:31:24,840
Speaker 1: do all the still the roots of all the different IPR.

734
00:31:25,200 --> 00:31:27,520
Speaker 2: They all play in the biggest twenty twenty leagues in

735
00:31:27,520 --> 00:31:29,160
Speaker 2: the world. The only thing is a lot of those

736
00:31:29,160 --> 00:31:30,920
Speaker 2: players who do play in all the tween twenty leagues

737
00:31:30,960 --> 00:31:33,200
Speaker 2: around the world aren't in great form.

738
00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:36,560
Speaker 1: And that's just has been amazing. Yeah. I think he's been,

739
00:31:36,600 --> 00:31:37,239
Speaker 1: hasn't he been? Really?

740
00:31:37,240 --> 00:31:39,000
Speaker 3: I swear he's been really good in IPL It's been

741
00:31:39,160 --> 00:31:39,720
Speaker 3: a little.

742
00:31:39,480 --> 00:31:42,520
Speaker 1: Bit sixty of twenty eight I think, yeah, but maybe

743
00:31:42,560 --> 00:31:44,400
Speaker 1: not as consistent as they would like. Yeah, I think

744
00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:46,240
Speaker 1: they're going to go right, what do you reckon the past?

745
00:31:46,240 --> 00:31:50,200
Speaker 1: Mark the windows stand right? Yeah, make it out of

746
00:31:50,240 --> 00:31:52,040
Speaker 1: the group has to be. I think they'll make it

747
00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:54,720
Speaker 1: over Afghanist. I think they could. They'll push I think

748
00:31:55,200 --> 00:31:57,320
Speaker 1: have the potential to the top the group. Yes, I

749
00:31:57,320 --> 00:31:59,760
Speaker 1: think because the home they've got really good ballers, that

750
00:31:59,880 --> 00:32:02,840
Speaker 1: just Zealand, right, Yeah, I think they do. I think

751
00:32:02,880 --> 00:32:04,480
Speaker 1: they'll they'll push New Zealand for that top.

752
00:32:04,560 --> 00:32:07,959
Speaker 3: Why I worry with them is they're like their bowlers

753
00:32:07,960 --> 00:32:12,719
Speaker 3: aren't very economical, like Alzari Joseph's here, Shama Joseph's hit

754
00:32:12,760 --> 00:32:15,320
Speaker 3: able like but I don't know.

755
00:32:15,320 --> 00:32:16,800
Speaker 1: They have a good home record. They've been some I

756
00:32:16,840 --> 00:32:19,280
Speaker 1: think they've been in England multiple times in short formats.

757
00:32:19,280 --> 00:32:22,400
Speaker 3: Who opens for them like Brandon King Johnson Charles like

758
00:32:23,800 --> 00:32:25,880
Speaker 3: I hope I think should open. Yeah, maybe I don't know.

759
00:32:25,920 --> 00:32:29,280
Speaker 3: I feel like the opening partnership might be a little

760
00:32:29,280 --> 00:32:30,680
Speaker 3: bit of a concern anyway.

761
00:32:30,760 --> 00:32:33,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, play South Africa in a warm up series,

762
00:32:35,080 --> 00:32:39,600
Speaker 1: first game tomorrow. Nice, so a good indication of where

763
00:32:39,600 --> 00:32:41,680
Speaker 1: the West Indish squads are, all right, yeah, actually with

764
00:32:41,800 --> 00:32:43,600
Speaker 1: someone who we think should make top four.

765
00:32:43,680 --> 00:32:44,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, we'll see how they're going.

766
00:32:45,040 --> 00:32:46,880
Speaker 1: We can have a look at that one, all right,

767
00:32:46,960 --> 00:32:49,240
Speaker 1: last time before we have a quick break two more

768
00:32:49,520 --> 00:32:51,160
Speaker 1: or we're going to do banking this as well. Yes,

769
00:32:51,480 --> 00:32:54,720
Speaker 1: Laka Hasarranga obviously their captain. I think he's he is

770
00:32:54,760 --> 00:32:56,720
Speaker 1: a great captain. He's really good in the short formats.

771
00:32:56,960 --> 00:32:58,480
Speaker 1: How do you think slak is going to go. They're

772
00:32:58,600 --> 00:33:02,160
Speaker 1: always so inconsistent. They them and West Indies. You just

773
00:33:02,200 --> 00:33:03,960
Speaker 1: don't know what you're gonna get from. They won the

774
00:33:04,080 --> 00:33:07,160
Speaker 1: Asia Cup, then they didn't do anything after that, and

775
00:33:07,160 --> 00:33:11,880
Speaker 1: then they just failed to make maybe India.

776
00:33:12,040 --> 00:33:14,040
Speaker 3: Oh my god, I'm on board the Sri Lanka train.

777
00:33:15,720 --> 00:33:17,840
Speaker 3: We'll get into the sort of big cause later on.

778
00:33:19,160 --> 00:33:19,760
Speaker 3: Some strengths.

779
00:33:19,760 --> 00:33:20,840
Speaker 1: Why why are you so?

780
00:33:21,800 --> 00:33:24,000
Speaker 3: I think they've got players for the conditions. Was that

781
00:33:24,040 --> 00:33:27,200
Speaker 3: they've got Hassaraga and thik Shanna to quality spinning options,

782
00:33:27,920 --> 00:33:33,520
Speaker 3: the silver name, the pronunciation and the Silver perfect another

783
00:33:33,560 --> 00:33:37,560
Speaker 3: spin option. They've got batting that can anchor an innings.

784
00:33:37,800 --> 00:33:39,480
Speaker 3: I think the Sunka can anchor me.

785
00:33:40,720 --> 00:33:42,400
Speaker 1: Mendy isn't.

786
00:33:46,960 --> 00:33:52,000
Speaker 3: I thought Aslanka as well, like good old Angelo Matthews

787
00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:59,160
Speaker 3: pumping away is Angelo Matthews. He's the Shanaka. I think

788
00:33:59,160 --> 00:34:01,760
Speaker 3: he was the captain recently thirty six to change it

789
00:34:01,800 --> 00:34:02,600
Speaker 3: over to Hussarungo.

790
00:34:02,680 --> 00:34:05,080
Speaker 1: So they're my dark horse Shrilanka.

791
00:34:05,160 --> 00:34:07,880
Speaker 3: I'm calling it dark Lors for one though, like just

792
00:34:07,920 --> 00:34:14,000
Speaker 3: to have fun, fun, fun, get around and I'm excited

793
00:34:14,040 --> 00:34:17,080
Speaker 3: to watch and this is my just for the barding,

794
00:34:17,280 --> 00:34:21,080
Speaker 3: my last show before I go away, and just every time, yes,

795
00:34:22,600 --> 00:34:26,799
Speaker 3: I'm not going to Well now I've lost my point,

796
00:34:26,920 --> 00:34:30,080
Speaker 3: so don't make it other group. Every times Slanka do

797
00:34:30,280 --> 00:34:32,719
Speaker 3: something good, just think of me. Think I can think

798
00:34:32,719 --> 00:34:32,920
Speaker 3: of you.

799
00:34:33,360 --> 00:34:35,480
Speaker 1: Well, there's no doubt you'll send us some messages.

800
00:34:35,160 --> 00:34:36,960
Speaker 3: And there's no doubt that you'll never think of me

801
00:34:36,960 --> 00:34:38,800
Speaker 3: because Shranka probably won't do anything.

802
00:34:39,440 --> 00:34:41,839
Speaker 2: They probably had the best group that they could ask for. Yeah,

803
00:34:42,320 --> 00:34:46,759
Speaker 2: good Bangladesh, Netherlin's, Nepal and then South Africa finished first.

804
00:34:46,760 --> 00:34:49,000
Speaker 2: But it's they just got to beat Bangladesh.

805
00:34:48,800 --> 00:34:50,840
Speaker 3: They beat South Africa and finish first.

806
00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:54,080
Speaker 1: No, I think they are I'm calling it. They're doing it.

807
00:34:56,800 --> 00:34:57,560
Speaker 3: We go with Shri Lanka.

808
00:34:57,920 --> 00:35:00,600
Speaker 1: They will shock the world.

809
00:35:00,680 --> 00:35:03,840
Speaker 3: This is the USA, the whole New audience and Canada,

810
00:35:04,239 --> 00:35:05,880
Speaker 3: all their fans are gonna come and they're gonna be

811
00:35:05,920 --> 00:35:08,920
Speaker 3: like damn Nka must be like a top three because

812
00:35:08,920 --> 00:35:10,279
Speaker 3: they're gonna they're gonna shock the world.

813
00:35:10,400 --> 00:35:12,600
Speaker 1: Classic Sri Lanka move in this tournament would be to

814
00:35:12,680 --> 00:35:14,520
Speaker 1: beats at Africa and then lose.

815
00:35:16,360 --> 00:35:19,719
Speaker 2: Only would they have one batsman ranked in the top

816
00:35:19,800 --> 00:35:21,640
Speaker 2: twenty for twenty.

817
00:35:21,560 --> 00:35:23,040
Speaker 3: And after this tournament they'll have ten.

818
00:35:23,480 --> 00:35:26,680
Speaker 2: Ten bats is the only Batto in the top twenty.

819
00:35:26,760 --> 00:35:29,600
Speaker 3: I do miss kusel Pereira for anyway, we're speaking too

820
00:35:29,680 --> 00:35:30,520
Speaker 3: much about Sri Lanka.

821
00:35:30,600 --> 00:35:33,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's on you. But that's all right. So you're

822
00:35:33,719 --> 00:35:37,319
Speaker 1: saying you've got big hopes past Mark, uh make one

823
00:35:37,480 --> 00:35:41,600
Speaker 1: Group five with the group past Mark is making out

824
00:35:41,600 --> 00:35:43,680
Speaker 1: of the group with that group, it's making Super eight. Yeah,

825
00:35:43,680 --> 00:35:44,840
Speaker 1: I agree. I think they just got to make the

826
00:35:44,880 --> 00:35:47,120
Speaker 1: Super eight. But you're right, they've got a lot of

827
00:35:47,120 --> 00:35:48,680
Speaker 1: good short fire plays. I don't think the depth is

828
00:35:48,760 --> 00:35:50,920
Speaker 1: very good to go on to that semi finals and

829
00:35:50,960 --> 00:35:51,279
Speaker 1: things like that.

830
00:35:51,320 --> 00:35:53,680
Speaker 3: I don't think our depth in hosting this show is

831
00:35:53,760 --> 00:35:54,080
Speaker 3: very good.

832
00:35:57,440 --> 00:35:59,840
Speaker 1: I'm getting he's throwing fire fire.

833
00:36:00,400 --> 00:36:01,480
Speaker 3: Do you have a Shrilanka top?

834
00:36:01,840 --> 00:36:03,520
Speaker 1: I do actually send it to me. I just won't

835
00:36:03,520 --> 00:36:05,360
Speaker 1: wear it. Yeah, it probably fit you better than me.

836
00:36:05,400 --> 00:36:10,719
Speaker 1: It's like an extra extra at all. Didn't mean like that.

837
00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:14,160
Speaker 1: Damn Anyway, last one we definitely didn't brek because Leo

838
00:36:14,200 --> 00:36:16,040
Speaker 1: has lost his mind talking about Shlanka that much.

839
00:36:16,080 --> 00:36:19,000
Speaker 3: Bloody Bangladesh. So I'm going to talk down Banglade.

840
00:36:19,120 --> 00:36:21,600
Speaker 1: First thing I'm going to say about Bangladesh is lift

841
00:36:21,640 --> 00:36:25,319
Speaker 1: your game. They lost to the USA yesterday Usay, no,

842
00:36:25,400 --> 00:36:28,160
Speaker 1: it's not fun. USA are coming into this tournament probably

843
00:36:28,200 --> 00:36:31,360
Speaker 1: is the second lowest ranked team I think, or the

844
00:36:31,360 --> 00:36:32,680
Speaker 1: third loo. Yeah, they're not good.

845
00:36:32,760 --> 00:36:33,000
Speaker 3: USA.

846
00:36:33,040 --> 00:36:35,200
Speaker 1: Bangs have been playing at the highest level such a

847
00:36:35,239 --> 00:36:38,560
Speaker 1: long time. You've got Chanto's captain, You've got Shaki who

848
00:36:38,800 --> 00:36:42,399
Speaker 1: Leo doesn't like salings. Yeah, it gives me flog vibe. Yeah.

849
00:36:42,400 --> 00:36:45,120
Speaker 1: What what do we actually think about Bangladesh? Like? Not great?

850
00:36:45,480 --> 00:36:47,000
Speaker 1: I always want them to do well.

851
00:36:47,480 --> 00:36:49,879
Speaker 2: I want I want them to do well in.

852
00:36:49,960 --> 00:36:52,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know half these players that they I

853
00:36:52,120 --> 00:36:52,720
Speaker 3: love the logo.

854
00:36:52,960 --> 00:36:57,440
Speaker 1: Don't they have the tiger? They do the tigers? Yeah,

855
00:36:57,520 --> 00:36:58,720
Speaker 1: I think she keeps obviously.

856
00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:00,120
Speaker 3: I know you said you don't like him, but he's

857
00:37:00,120 --> 00:37:02,800
Speaker 3: an absolute start. They do have some good players like Tasking,

858
00:37:02,880 --> 00:37:07,759
Speaker 3: Armored Bowls, quick Litten Dat is a good bat, sum Yasaka.

859
00:37:08,000 --> 00:37:10,640
Speaker 3: I don't know his pronunciation. Again, roast me if you're

860
00:37:10,640 --> 00:37:12,440
Speaker 3: want in the comments, but he's a he's a good cricketer.

861
00:37:13,080 --> 00:37:17,200
Speaker 3: And the fizz Fizz. Yeah, he's a great bowl.

862
00:37:17,400 --> 00:37:18,880
Speaker 1: What else do they have though, Like, I don't know.

863
00:37:18,960 --> 00:37:21,000
Speaker 1: I think they're batting depth let him down against us

864
00:37:21,040 --> 00:37:23,040
Speaker 1: A the other They've got a lot of guys that

865
00:37:23,120 --> 00:37:26,279
Speaker 1: are really good longer format. I think that he's not

866
00:37:26,880 --> 00:37:28,200
Speaker 1: really good, but like better at the long.

867
00:37:28,680 --> 00:37:30,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, they're more test plays. They're not going to have

868
00:37:30,160 --> 00:37:31,240
Speaker 3: it one to strike anymore.

869
00:37:31,520 --> 00:37:33,840
Speaker 2: She keeps the number one ranked all rounder.

870
00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:36,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, Isy, Yeah, he's still he's still going really well.

871
00:37:36,280 --> 00:37:40,040
Speaker 1: Damn just doesn't like him. Gets Anger in there sooner.

872
00:37:41,920 --> 00:37:46,919
Speaker 1: Wranger quick quick has definitely got to be one my man,

873
00:37:47,560 --> 00:37:50,880
Speaker 1: the well equal first. I think there you go? What

874
00:37:50,920 --> 00:37:53,680
Speaker 1: you take? Yes? Really? Yes?

875
00:37:55,000 --> 00:37:56,160
Speaker 3: Is that just because you don't like to.

876
00:37:56,280 --> 00:37:56,839
Speaker 1: Fear in list?

877
00:37:56,880 --> 00:37:59,319
Speaker 2: Marcus store and is the sixth so that who would you.

878
00:37:59,280 --> 00:38:00,399
Speaker 3: Take out of all those?

879
00:38:00,520 --> 00:38:00,640
Speaker 1: Like?

880
00:38:01,360 --> 00:38:03,799
Speaker 3: She keeps out a better career than Hasseranguer, but I

881
00:38:03,880 --> 00:38:04,839
Speaker 3: just like Hasseranger better.

882
00:38:04,920 --> 00:38:07,240
Speaker 1: All right, Well, yeah, we've talked about them enough. Past

883
00:38:07,239 --> 00:38:09,560
Speaker 1: mark for Bangladesh, what do we Let's have a look

884
00:38:09,560 --> 00:38:11,560
Speaker 1: at Their group is pretty tough, isn't it.

885
00:38:11,880 --> 00:38:13,520
Speaker 3: So it's one of the easy groups. Yeah, it's with

886
00:38:13,560 --> 00:38:17,080
Speaker 3: Sri Lanka and the past mark is to make it

887
00:38:17,120 --> 00:38:19,960
Speaker 3: out of the group. Okay, they won't, They'll be terrible.

888
00:38:20,040 --> 00:38:20,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree.

889
00:38:20,600 --> 00:38:23,480
Speaker 3: I think Netherlands might beat them. Netherlands, which we'll get

890
00:38:23,480 --> 00:38:23,879
Speaker 3: into later.

891
00:38:23,960 --> 00:38:25,839
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think there'll be a sneaky one napole even

892
00:38:25,880 --> 00:38:30,520
Speaker 1: they've got some couple of players.

893
00:38:31,120 --> 00:38:32,760
Speaker 3: We need a break when you're saying ridiculous.
