Respectfully disagree.

Australia‘s approach at that time was generally only good for 230-240 in a 50 over game. You can’t even win 50 over cricket like that any more let alone T20.

Your suggested approach assumes that can pick off 5 singles and hit a boundary each over at will. It ignores wickets, good balls, mis-hits, good fielding, etc. It just isn’t realistic to achieve this.

I have no doubt T20 tactics will evolve but doubt they revert back to this type of approach.
lol

Simpson took over , what 30 years ago

Think 220 was considered a good score back then in a 50 over game.

Then it got to to 300 and beyond.

I guess everyone was thinking 400 would be the norm now.

Will never be realistic (achievable) if they never even try to change their thinking though ?

Every team wants to play the same way , game after game.

I guess the new tactic is trying to hit 3 boundaries a over.

So 3 x 4 = 12

12 x 20 = 240

Remind me when T20 teams are scoring close to this consistently.

I think that’s pretty much confirmed that it’s Tye, Mills and Inglis coming in for me. Luckily I already have Marsh and Agar.
Yeah five Scorchers is very justifiable, they look the goods right now.

5/662 with Marsh, Agar, and Bazley from last night. Leading in all my leagues so it's probably a good score! Russell C, Zampa, Stoinis, Couch, Philippe and Curran tomorrow.
