Best game of the World Cup so far, shame were on the wrong side, Hopefully that means they're copying the All Blacks and keeping the powder dry for the finals.
Taking into account it would have been history making chasing 350 plus, unbelievable effort.

Looking at the card we got a lot of starts but needed one more batsman to go on
We needed someone to provide that short sharp innings that Cummins provided.
If Conway or Mitchell fire.... Despite all that we almost won it

A great chase.
After that start by OZ we did pretty well to restrict them to 388. We actually paced that chase almost to perfection.
I’m just glad the RR deficit is very minimal given the chase.

Phone ran out of battery a few overs out.
Good thing too, as I was busy shitting my pants.
Amazing game. Once we got to Boult I thought we could tie up an end but then the skinny prick his a boundary! 🤣
We made just enough saves to make it count, but too many wides nearly ruined all that.
That's a record aggregate for a CWC game

Smithy is such an annoying little goblin in commentary
Aww, precious. Is he saying things you don't like?
More that he is a chippy little shit in commentary, particularly when New Zealand are playing.
Must be a South islander.
Smithy is a great New Zealander and anyone from the same country as Brad Haddin can just piss right off for speaking like that.
The hypocrisy and audacity is staggering. Go and log off from the fern and have a think about things for awhile.
Fair enough. I'll take my 5 CWCs and leave you to yours.... Oh...
Save this sort of lowbrow boasting for @Virgil
Good win though ( grumble grumble ) your boys have the wood over us when it counts

I thought it was for all ODI's?
There was that Aus v SA game in the 2000’s where both sides scored in the 430’s
-
Here’s the highest aggregate list. That 430 game is still number one, this match is 4th

Fielding was the difference in the end. Aussie got about 20 runs too many.
Yep Mitchell's dropped catch, Sodhi's blunder that's what cost us
Ravindra dropped one cold as well

And what a match that was. I stayed up the whole night/morning to watch it. Ponting was putting on a masterclass and I was like can’t go to bed now.
Then after losing a wicket early, Graeme Smith and Gibbs went nuts. The drama in the last few overs was something else.

Maxwell dropped Ravindra cold.
One of our outfielders completely failed to stop a boundary hit right to them.
Marnus stepped onto the rope taking a catch.
We bowled too many wides - partly due to pressure - and probably pulled up about 20 runs short on our innings.
