    @Siam said in Australia v India:

    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.

    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.

        https://www.abc.net.au/news/2021-01-04/australia-india-third-test-scg-crowd-capped-at-25-per-cent-covid/13029302

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

          India are also reportedly shitty about having to go into hard lockdown for the Gabba test.

          https://www.abc.net.au/news/2021-01-03/india-does-not-want-to-travel-to-brisbane-gabba-test-in-doubt/13028490

          However, a source in the Indian camp has reportedly expressed concern over the team being forced into a hard quarantine upon entry to Queensland, saying they would rather the final — and possibly deciding — Test be played elsewhere.

          This was after five players reportedly broke the bubble in Melbourne:

          https://www.abc.net.au/news/2021-01-02/indian-players-investigated-possible-coronavirus-bubble-breach/13027970

          A video of some Indian players, including Rohit Sharma and Rishabh Pant, sitting at a table in a Melbourne restaurant has been posted on the Twitter account of Navaldeep Singh.

              Firstly, fuck off if you don't like quarantine. It's what every other team has had to endure to play cricket this year.

              Secondly, has Navaldeep received any threats yet?

                @booboo don’t believe too much of what is being reported. Sounds like a bit of games going on before the Sydney test starts. Brad Haddin trying to egg it up last night too.

                    Besides, if India want to go home, who can stop them? Or blame them?

                    A sternly worded letter of dissatisfaction will have the bcci quaking I'm sure. Better to be decent hosts and accomodate all sides for this one off match.

                    All they have to announce is - "there's a deadly virus present in Queensland, so we're outta here thanks very much! - player safety etc blah...

                    You can't on the one hand hype up the scary virus to paralysis levels and then condemn visiting people for not wanting to be near it.

                    Haddin fucking around with his mouth too much again. If the Indians walk, aussie cricket loses, and not just on the field this time. Dickhead talk

                                Providing the Christchurch weather cooperates India would need to win the third test wouldn't they? A draw or a loss would still see NZ & Australia be #1, #2.

                                  @rotated don't India have to win at least 3 matches from their series with Oz and England (at home) to get #2? While we have to get max points from our WI and Pakistan series to take second spot if India don't make it?

                                    There is literally zero chance that the final won’t be 2 of the big 3. Oz, India, England. Zero.

                                      Besides, if India want to go home, who can stop them? Or blame them?

                                      Do they split the test championship points in that case? In which case they all but guarantee themselves a place in the final?

                                      No, both teams would get 0 points. However, making the WTC final is about the percentage of points gained from those competed for so it doesn't matter.

                                      Providing the Christchurch weather cooperates India would need to win the third test wouldn't they? A draw or a loss would still see NZ & Australia be #1, #2.

                                      No India have 6 games left (4 against England), 30 points a win, 10 points a draw. They need 120 points to have a greater % than NZ do if they beat Pakistan. This completely changes if any of the games get cancelled.

                                      NZ has quite a good chance of making but it will all depend on other results.

                                          Is Pucovski the geeza that keeps getting knocked out?
