Australia vs India Discussion

[Browny]

I’m just waiting for Australia’s hope my beer moment

Typical Australia, although India has done well to hang in there, they should have been batting a while ago.

Great day, Australia bowled as a pack and I will take 250 total for certain. India went so hard at the ball and Australia were so smart in swing and then wide watch them chase.

Khawaja's fielding has improved so much since he lost weight. Great catch.

Advantage Australia but bowling is easily their strength, the bats have a huge job to back it up, particularly given they have some pretty good swing bowlers...but they do have Ishant for some reason.

Not the shot to start off with from Finch

I watched Finch last week and v the new bowl I am worried.

Worried has left the building and been replaced by deep concern.

can we now drop the second Marsh ....

can we now drop the second Marsh ....

And JL + the selectors too. I can’t believe Dizzy isn’t coach.

 

[Alec]

So when are Warner and Smith finally back?

 

[Unbreakable]

First time in Test history a top 5 batsman has been dismissed for single digits 6 innings in a row.

Shaun Marsh making history.

 

[Battler]

Head proving me wrong here. Very good knock.

Lol @ Shaun. Just get rid of him and get Patterson in. Strip Shaun and Mitch of their Aussie citizenship or let WA secede so the selectors can’t be tempted ever again.

EDIT: Or Wade, he put on another special knock in a low scoring affair.

 

[Unbreakable]

Can we open with Ellyse Perry next game?

Burns and Wade in, Harris and Paine out, not the worst option going around. Wade in particular is knocking the door down this season.

Harris was good yesterday- didn't get a score but like I said last week after watching him for Victoria I think he has a style that will suit Test cricket.

Paine has been sensational and dropping him is the last thing this side needs. It needs stability and Wade getting a few runs doesn't change that.

 

[1910]

Just further on the Oval and how it's changed, hasn't been a 200 partnership there since Haddin and Clarke in 2014. That's any form of cricket.

This type of Test has become the norm.

Shaun Marsh making history.

Not yet- George Bonnor 1888 for Australia.

4, 2, 0, 3, 6, 8, 0, 5, 5 and 0.

Dropped.

Wade sure never be in the team ever again.

Wade sure never be in the team ever again.

Why?

He’s the most in-form batsman in Australia.
