Deserved win I suppose, player of the tournament for Starc well deserved too. The way they carry on still gives me the shits though.

On a different note what is it with Shane Warne's love in with Clarke, he does go embarassingly overboard on the commentary.

One of them is a very good cricketer, the other one I assume is just a fan in a replica shirt as I don't even know who he is.

Note - one of them is wearing a gold medal and his country likes him playing for them. The other one has been rejected by two countries.

Yes looking forward to seeing Aussie Fawad in action (eh Wizard), has he told you guys yet what sponsors you are allowed to use?

Some good news for the Windies & England, no place for the ‘best all rounder in the world’ but the blonde misery keeps his spot among a fair few oldies.

Obv Faulkner's not suited to the proper form of the game, in the eyes of the selectors.
