it was only because of the two no-balls (else I think India had the game)

The amount of no-balls in modern cricket is actually ridiculous hahaha. I reckon most of them don't even get picked up.

How good is Meg Lanning, though?

Well Warnie has been speaking a lot of crap about him for the last two years, non-stop bullying. Now that Samuels has ''spoken with the bat'' I think he deserves to give Warne some stuff back as well.

I didn't mind it tbh. Didn't like the arrogance of the interview (feet on the table, etc etc.), but taking shots at Warne is perfectly ok because Warne has done the same to him on multiple occasions. Aussies are traditionally the loudest mouths out there, don't dish it out if you can't take it. They couldn't handle Kohli's verbal jousts when he was down here flogging them all over the park, and now they can't handle this one. Fair play in my mind.

On the side, what an amazing last over, 19 to win and Brathwaite tonks 4 sixes to win it with a couple of balls to spare, thrilling! :D

Lol! The last over was just amazing. The momentary look on the bowler's face was priceless    :P

Yeah, seems to be a popular opinion. I hope the ODI doesn't fizzle out, though; I prefer them to T20s, I think. The more cricket the better, hahaha.

Steve Smith is amazing. How he's gone from primarily a bowler throwing down some leggies to this is, well, incredible.

Enjoy Steve Smith while he is still in his prime. We may not see a player like him ever in years, he is going to be a great - will be up there with the Pontings, Waughs etc.

Can't argue with that, Rod. I like that he has his own style and is running with it. Total respect.

Did you follow the India v. Australia series? ;D
