CRICKET Australia v India Summer

[Allo]

Nothing like our bowlers giving some nice short and wide deliveries to let them chase this down instead of bowing at the fucking stumps.

 

[Sproj]

Marsh should not be bowling this many no balls at the medium slow speeds he operates at.

 

[Fernando]

Slipping away. Our bowlers have some mental block against Indian allrounders

 

[Battler]

Not like we lack fast bowling options. Why on God's green earth are we grinding our mid-30's blokes into the dust with huge overs?

Because George Bailey won't drop Patty's best mate Marsh.

 

[BroncsFan]

Still can't finish off a tail FFS

This isn't really a tail though... India have basically picked batsmen through to number 8.

Draw is into the favourite option on sportsbet

Another MCG road...

This is the type of team selection that won India the last tour in Aus. I'd love to see Aus doing something similar for the final test. You would assume Richardson comes in for Starc but I'd also consider Connolly for Marsh given Sydney usually helps spinners and he would give another option and give him a test before SL.

Anyone but Marsh, it's a joke. He's basically there as a good teammate, he should retire before one of his mates breaks down.

 

[BroncsFan]

A rain break and new session and they start with Marsh... what the ****

 

[Santa]

Omg this is boring!

 

[Santa]

And just as I say that, they finally get a wicket!

 

[Allo]

This team still carrying the yips from Headingley 2019.

Why can we not consistently finish off a team when they’re 7 or 8 down ffs

Because this is not your usual 8 and 9, both are legit batsmen.

 

[Bucking Beads]

Very tough ask to win this from
Here now. Gonna need something special. Pitch still good enough to chase down 400 in a day.

Even still, it seems any plans go out the window and we just bowl short and wide and hope for an mis-hit. No attacking the stumps, no bowling 4th stump line, no strategic field placements to lay a trap for the short stuff. Or there is and they can never execute it

Maybe we wouldn’t be having this conversation, doesn’t change the fact it was Kohli’s fault. If Jaiswal hadn’t been thrown under the bus and shown a bit of intent, he might have even been able to make it back.

The fielder doesn’t matter, in that situation, it isn’t Kohli’s decision to make, he wasn’t running to the danger end anyway.

On every metric other than you can’t be wrong, it was Kohli’s fault. Even using your logic against you, if Kohli had responded as he should have and committed, they score the run and continue to put pressure back on Australia.

You can call no as the non striker; if it is obviously suicide. Indians and Pakistani players are always candidates for run outs .Something about their coaching as kids I reckon.
