Maybe they can bring back Wes! I have a feeling he might get wicket making these batters mistime a slog

I don't get why Matt Renshaw is batting this low. Shouldn't he be batting ahead of Josh Inglis?
He's more of a batting allrounder these days, bowled a lot in Pakistan and Bangladesh. But I too agree he should batting ahead atleast Carey
Interesting.
Was wondering who the 5th bowler was going to be for Aus. I guess it's going to be a combination of Head, Renshaw and Peake.

Need a wicket before they can bring back Newman, he might get tonked in the final overs otherwise

I could see Newman just getting a random 5 wickets here.

Renshaw plays pace bowlers so well in the V.
Probably need some protection out there.

Congrats to Newman! A 5-fer against Aus is an impressive achievement.

295 may be out of reach, but who knows?
Australia don't have a proper 5th bowler and if we get off to a good start we could pull off a miracle.
BT was really good with the gloves wasn't he? Let's hope he performs with the bat as well.

Probably could have kept them 20-30 runs shorter but not bad.
Some pretty good batters.
Maybe a 4th seamer would have been better?
Can’t wait to watch the first ten overs of the batting

Nyahmuri is the youngest Zimbabwean to take an ODI fifer. That's some stat
