Certainly not at the moment... Aussie's feeling the pressure on home soil?

The 5x coverage keeps breaking for AUSTRALIAN RADIO NEWS !!!

That's not cricket, cobber

The afghans have got a bit bogged down, but they should be good for 120 in 20 overs to keep the Aussies behind us on run rate, so w can concentrate on just winning vs Sri Lanka, not winning inside X overs or by Y runs. etc

4 wickets in 10 balls......they are stuck on 103-6 at the moment, still need 17 runs to get passed the rate needed

Sorry, that's just what they said on the commentary I was listening to!

The Sandpaper Enthusiasts were very, very lucky there.

Wow only just snuck home by 4 runs . That damaging little spell where the wicket went down cost AFG. Absolute heroics from Rashin Khan, but not to be.
