India paying $1.56 to win at the TAB.

A billion Indians wondering how they get their bet on!

Easy money on current form!

[Chris B.]

@Donsteppa yeah - except that T20 has a bit of a crapshoot element to it.

But, you'd think there's a big enough difference between the respective bowling attacks to overcome that.

[nzzp]

Forgot this was on, just got it on the TV.

wish i hadn't. Bennett goes 1 6 6 4 4 6.

FML.

[Chris B.]

Hamish Bennett's IPL price sliding downwards.

What's the minimum - I'd say he'd be there and offering a rebate!

[nzzp]

On the bright side, its' a great way to get India to tour again soon.

Easy bowlers, no physical threats, freedom to wander out wihtout being accosted,, stuff the averages, eat some food, not too hot, no australian piston wristed gibbons to play against, and if you lose no one cares.

Ideal tour.

Ditto.

We really struggle to get wickets without Boult & Ferg don’t we!

[Gunner]

Golden arm CdG.

Comms just said that this is CdGs first bowl in the last 7 T20s... WTF???

[Chris B.]

Bennett strikes back - two in an over!!!

His agent's phone is ringing hot! !!

[Damo]

Santner bowling up some juicy pies.

[nzzp]

Well, Bennett after going for 27 in an over, has gone 3/53 with one to go. Good comeback

[ACT Crusader]

Is Mitch Santner a professional cricketer?

[Steven Harris]

That missed catch by Santner was hilarious..he did not even get his hands near the ball..was like watching something out of social cricket ...I’m still pissing myself laughing...!

[Chris B.]

Santner drops a goober at the end to spoil a good fielding effort - and it probably costs about 6 runs!

179/5 by the Indians.

Pitch a bit tricky - needs a good start or we'll probably fall in a heap.

[Bovidae]

I reckon Santner needs to wear his glasses in the field like Vettori did as the contact lenses aren't working.

Ironically, he fielded well in the deep as long as the ball wasn't in the air.

[Gunner]

Munro is really out of nick.

They’re targeting his hip, and he can hardly get bat on ball let alone get any kind of timing. It must be denting his confidence as he got a full straight one, instead of putting it straight back over the bowlers head for 6, he blocks it back to the bowler.

Apart from Guppy’s second ball 6, we can’t get anything other than singles from the Indians back of a length bowling.

No wickets yet though, that’s a bonus.

14/0

Sorry 20/0, Guppy thick edge over 3rd man for 6.

Some guys get few chances to impress, others like Munro get so many chances. What does it take to make a change? Tom Blundell proved himself in the ultimate test against the aussies. He has a reputation as a stroke maker. Why the fark can't the guy get a run in the T20 team if he wants it? The ODI team as well for that matter?

[Gunner]

@canefan to be fair to Munro, he was the number 1 ranked T20 batter in the world for a while there... so this is his format, he’s just not in good form and the Indians have been very disciplined when bowling to him.

I think everyone has worked him out. He doesn't appear to have the solid technique required to dig himself out

[Gunner]

Guptil another start but can’t go on with it. Think the comms said his last 6 or 7 innings he’s been out between 30-60....

47/1

[Gunner]

That dismissal sums Munro up at the moment.

Dances down the track and misses by a mile.

52/2, the slide has started.

Satnav in, boom or bust?
