Australia v India

[KiwiMurph]

@NTA He did so much hard work.

Real shame Yadav got hurt because he looked to be troubling the Aussie batters.

Intriguing match this. Could Wade pull off a match saving innings and also save his test spot?

Well that was a rip snorter of a jinx right there. Well played.

[NTA]

@KiwiMurph always impatient. Burns energy and then fatigue.

[KiwiMurph]

Was that a near identical dismissal for Head to how Siraj got him in the first innings?

[NTA]

@KiwiMurph yep. Sack him.

[NTA]

Terrible loss of patience from the skipper

[antipodean]

That must've been the faintest of edges for Tim.

[MN5]

@NTA why is Starc not batting at 8 ? he's pretty capable, more so than Cummins I woulda thought.

[NTA]

@MN5 Starc is a slugger. Cummins will try to bat. So will Lyon and Hoff

Fair enough, similar to Wags batting ahead of Timmy in some cases I suppose. I just looked at 10 fifties ( High score of 99, bummer ) and he looks decent based on those numbers.

Still think Australia are a chance here.

Well, a team that got skittled for 36 certainly has no right to be complacent but it would take a massive fuck up for them to lose from here.

Aussies are basically 6/2 and two days to play.

Unless you’re trying to outdo my Wade jinx....

Would you select a single Indian player in an Australian team ? (copyright Sean Fitzpatrick 2003 )

@MN5 @NTA

Top 3 test sides, OZ, NZ, India - what does a combined XI look like (injuries aside)

Smith, Kane, Kohli?

Cummins, Bumrah, Wagner, Boult, Hazelwood?

Warner, Rahane, BJ, Nicholls?

Lyon, Ashwin, Jadeja?

Depends how far back we're looking.

Not worth picking right now.

Warner is the only one not playing right now so it's him and the other guys assuming he walks into the Oz team when he's fit again which he will.

Captain Cheater gets his leg bail clipped off.

Hears it.

Turns around and sees it.

Big step to the left to obscure the umpire’s view, then takes a little jog down the wicket, hoping someone would throw the stumps down and confuse everyone as to the fact that the wicket was already broken.

He is a dead set cheat, it’s innate, he knows no other way. Out there today his first instinct was to cheat.

The only difference between him and the grubby dwarf with a head like a robber’s dog is he’s sneaky.

Last time he didn’t want to know and, when he was found out, he attempted to sob his way out of it.

Their relevance will wane soon enough and their low grade character will ambush them eventually.
