CRICKET Australia v India Summer

[BroncsFan]

No way should Siraj be allowed to pull that shit with the bails.

Yeah why is he allowed to go up and touch the bails at all... it should only be the ump that can touch the bails

And his celebrations are supposed to be ok too, you have to check with the umpire.

Bumrah back now... Aussies went 1/34 in the 14 overs he was off (2.4 rpo).

Will be interesting to see how they go leading into lunch

Massive innings for Smith and the team now. He's had some luck and looking better.
How much a big score adds to the teams confidence will be huge.

Travis head is on track to crack my top 5 favourite batsmen to watch.

Dean jones, punter, haydos, gilly & Huss are currently on that list but I tell you what…there’s something about Travis. Maybe it’s just that he’s surrounded by out of form players, time will tell.

Marnus did it too.

Marnus shouldn’t have got sucked in, he was going well until the bails mind games. Well played India.

Why is anyone other than the umps allowed to touch the bails at all though?

Probably shouldn’t and I imagine in the past you would have got told by umpires to leave it.

Broad started this bail thing I think.

Play the dot ball walk out towards the square leg umpire, contemplate the innings wander back and face up.

Don’t get sucked into the BS

Smith has deadset battled this innings. He’s still there though. He could have been out 10 times already.

Head plays cricket in the right fashion. We need him or someone like him opening the batting.

I think you keep the bloke who gets you out of trouble all the time where they are batting. I think Inglis is one of the classiest batsman in the world, good form with the red ball, attacking minded. For mine he had to be in the team somewhere, opening might be an option but the person I have most confidence to come in and score runs is him.

I remember the ashes Gabba test clearly thinking how Heads innings was one of the most entertaining I’ve ever witnessed. Never did I think it would be one of many very similar to come. It’s aggressive but it’s timeless cricket shots. Beautiful to watch.

 

[BroncsFan]

Smudge playing a cover drive is a beautiful thing

 

[Browny]

Travis Head you freak. Just fearless cricket.

Smudge battling on but hasn’t thrown it away.

 

[Bucking Beads]

Must love Head. What a player.

I think Smith really likes batting with Head, Travis just allows Steve to do his thing and bat with a clear head focused on himself.
