Channel 9 thought Antiques Roadshow would rate higher than a T20 match, so SA viewers missed the first 6 overs of the game!
Australia 1/84 after 8 overs

Says alot for Channel 9 Adelaide, one of the only States in Aust that dont show the 50/50 game in it's entirety as well

yeah because of course Entertainment Tonight and 30 episodes of Two and a Half Men would pull bigger ratings

Maybe they've blown their 'hide the dots' budget so have to put crap on instead of live sports to save some money

Watson and Warner blitzed the Windies

AU then lost momentum

1st loss coming up this season I reckon, how can players come in, shoulder arms to balls and play defensive shots. Good to see Dan Christian not get a game, just goes to show, pick him so he doesnt play for SA against NSW, anything under 160 Windies should get easy on this smallish ground
And why do the commentators keep giving Johnson huge wraps on his batting, been lucky to hit the ball this season

Another great move by the captain in waiting, bat Johnson in front of Smith FFS

Australia 7/153 after 18.2
I reckon 160 would be par so we're still in good shape

Australia 8/179 after 20 overs
After the huge start should have got closer to 200, but 179 is still a very defendable target. Australia should win this one.

Great cameo by Haddin probably puts the Aussies in front unless Gayle gets a real flyer or Tait has a shocker
