Those stats look great on paper but I reckon if you compared them in terms of who touched the footy more, it would be probably be what you’d expect it to be. It’s a touch misleading when you compare someone like Ben Hunt who was the Dragon’s marquee halfback to someone like Ezra Mam. Not to...
India always seems to have a never ending supply chain of generational talents, they’ve just for a long time been more about individuals. Rohit vs Kohli is a debate that quite often results in a heated discussion across social media among the Indian fans. Whenever they can unite as a group...
He did, back in 2015.
9 years later, he’s probably lost a yard or two of pace. I doubt many teams are worried about his running game. He’s always been a halfback and that’s what the Dragons needed him to be. Ezra has a run first mentality, because we need that. Ben Hunt with a run first...
It used be a situation where the Indian team would be competitive at the SCG, where spin played a role..
I deadset can't see us winning a game against them on this. Paddikal out for Rohit Sharma, if Bumrah stays fit and plays the series out, I don't know how we can compete with them on what...
He's just an awkward customer to deal with, the late release on the wide angle, he gets players playing back because his release is so unnatural and then they get beaten by pace to the fuller one when their feet are stuck on the crease, if you get forward you'll probably get hit outside the line...
The ruthless sides would have sent us in, to put it beyond all doubt.
When we bat tomorrow if we get through Bumrah relatively unscathed, it could be a rough old time for India, this pitch has developed into a road. Not saying we will win but they could have made it alot easier here.
I suspect...
The smart play from India would be to send us in but I wonder in the back of their mind if they're thinking the pitch is as flat as can be and are just slightly concerned, personally I think we haven't got a chance of batting 2 days against Bumrah. He was ripping through us on his own merit the...
Hard to see us getting a result out of this game if we don't somehow get to 100 or so.
I thought we were too passive, i'm not saying start reverse hitting for 6 but at least get a bit of pressure back on them. Marnus was just there waiting for one with his name on it and sure enough, he got...
Ezra and Dearden are like for like. Should he have kept Tom at the club being able to use his foresight to know that Ezra would be suspended for a horrific vehicle incident? I am sure you'll hold him accountable.
You can't just waltz in with the benefit of hindsight and tick off all the players...
I think India have developed into a pace strong attack, they used to throw 3-4 spinners at you, their pace bowlers would just be there to extract the swing on the hard new ball.
I would have liked to have seen us be just a little more aggressive, it's the old Shane Warne saying.. if you add 2 wickets and 20 runs to the total, where are you?
We're absolutely fucked, that's where we are.
Jaiswal, you can just tell this guy has grown on Indian roads..
He's nearly done his shoulder on the follow through of the booming drive he was trying to play, deadset.
I wouldn't say he's a broken down has been but he's most definitely lost a yard or two of pace after his knee injury which is basically what his game is based around, I wouldn't say he has the ballplaying skills of other elite fullbacks in the game.
