    @KiwiMurph said in Australia v India:

    CA have announced 3rd test will be in Sydney.

    18 new community transmission cases today. There will be more, so this seems like an interesting move.

    Yep. Investment banker, former NSW premier, and soon-to-be Cricket Australia board member Mike Baird was instrumental in ensuring the match stayed in Sydney. - SMH

    You couldn't find a more stuffed suit. Should've stayed in Melbourne (or gone for a fast, bouncing deck in Perth - although India would never allow that).

    @MN5 at this stage, yes.

    News

    Burns dropped as Warner, Pucovski return for Aussies | cricket.com.au

    Burns dropped as Warner, Pucovski return for Aussies | cricket.com.au

    Australia have omitted out-of-form opener Joe Burns with fellow openers David Warner and Will...

    Loved this bit:

    Fast bowler Sean Abbott will also re-join the Test squad after recovering from a calf strain.

    Good luck chuck.

    @NTA The last four of that lineup are awesome. Only a couple of the first 7 are proven, depending on the day for results. TBF Paine is a good keeper and his batting is sound.

    It is still a great team and I would back them in Aus any day.

    Yes. No doubt the Indian attack will say nothing but he'll have a fair bit of short stuff directed his way

    @NTA dunno. Thought you were having a sook. Couldn't work out why you thought the Indians would say nothing. Thought you were smearing them again when they've got nothing to do with puckowski.
    Figured that even a silverfern XI with Mariner opening the bowling (because he's tall and skinny) would try to bounce puckowski, it's that obvious. Still don't know why you brought the Indians into it😒

    Uh.... because they're playing against India?

    Did you and Mick From Gold Coast got into the sherry early for NYE or something? 🤔

    The point is: they won't take it easy on Pucovski just because he's had (a few too many) blows to the head. He's an opening batsman in a Test so if he's out there, he's fair game.

    I'd be bowling beamers at him. Not out of malice, just lack of skill.

    No shit Sherlock.

    So what's the relevance of them, or any team "saying nothing"?

    Sorry to waste your time, captain obvious I thought you had something insightful to say. Telling Wags fans that short bowling is an option in test cricket🤔

    Anyway mate, nice to have one last stoush for the year and perhaps mine wins the dumbest post award then😉 - apologies for overestimating you again and happy New year mate (seriously👍)

    @Siam I'd go further and say I have genuine concerns for a guy that age with that history padding up. But we will see I guess.

    @NTA I hear you but better to let him play and enjoy his chance rather than dwell on a what if.

    I'm more concerned about his long term mental health if you don't let him play 🙂

    Crowds for the SCG reduced from 50% capacity to 25% capacity.

    Jan 4, 2021

    SCG Test crowds reduced to 25 per cent of ground capacity

    SCG Test crowds reduced to 25 per cent of ground capacity

    Officials respond to concerns about risks of COVID-19 spread at the SCG Test by reducing crowd numbers to a maximum of a quarter of the ground's capacity.

    Possible showers predicted for Thursday and Friday at Moore Park but mostly clear thereafter. So it might even go until Day 5!
