Yes, disastrous
Lose toss and then lose a bowler.Like Perth.
We have enough batting talent to fight for a draw if need be though.

No, this isn't the type of pitches that will have a draw.
Unfortunately , looks like we will let India bat for about 5 of the 6 sessions that the pitch will behave.
It will get ugly, I'm afraid.

I’m trying to be positive

Yeah we are a bit fucked, the toss was absolutely critical, and we just can't afford to have a bowler injured in these conditions. Going to be an extremely tall ask on our batsmen to grind out a big total, going to need both Kane and Ross to come to the party.

Knowing our luck Timmy won't bowl another ball and the workload will fuck Kylo. Out batters will get rolled and confidence shot for the rest of the tour

Our luck? We won the test championship, hardly a fortune of bad luck

I think we’ve had some good luck lately, hard to do better than winning the test championship.
This is such a mid 2000s post about cricket, get with the times.

I was just recalling the last tour to Oz. No arguments that we have had more go our way than not in recent years

He bowled later in the day I understand, got thorugh 16 overs or so

Fuck this is an annoying period of the game with no Southee.
Our spinners are not stepping up. Ravindra just went for 10 in his last over !!

Obligatory daily comment about not having wags coming up!
Fancy our spinners not stepping up and carrying an extra one for Wags.. FML

Another one where the bails would go flying, but Umpires Call...
Southee gets him anyway without addition.
Nice debut century for Shreyas. He's taken a liking to Jamieson this morning.

Not an easy pitch to keep on but Blundell is not as tidy as Watling was
-
Turns out @Rapido and I were both right and both wrong. It was a good call to play both Kyle and Southee, but we should have played 3 seamers instead.

Be nice if the bloody spinners could at least get one wicket
