***Official*** India in Australia 2014-5

[Langeveldt]

Are you still in the UK Langeveldt?.

I'm not sure but you may find that ABC Grandstand is region restricted due to distribution rights and not available in the UK.

The Tunein app seems to work, I get TMS in South Africa even though its rights restricted to the UK. Being on the Apple IStore I also imagine it's legal

**** it.

Probably more a reflection of that I heard some ******** aussie fans say that at times.

Howardj always said he preferred a contest and got bored. There were others on and off the forum too

Having always supported teams that filter on the edge of being the best but never actually do it consistently I've often thought it would probably be boring just being the best forever, but I guess you're hopes get that much higher as well. Becomes about trying to be one of the best ever and break records.

Weather set fair

Series Prediction: Australia 4-0
Leading Runscorer: Warner
Leading Wicket-taker: Siddle
Big Flop: Kohli
Oddity: Warner not to sledge

There's no certainty about maintaining it though, so it's still exciting to see it continued on. It's not the same, but it's not boring.

There's no fun whole-heartedly supporting a side through defeat. I first understood that after the heart-break in '96 WC semifinal.

 

[Burgey]

When's the last time a player picked up a pair on his captaincy debut?

M A Taylor vs Pakistan 1994.

 

[howardj]

Is the ABC still covering the cricket?

Hope so

But apparently there were some cuts made to their Budget...

 

[Tangles]

Hope so

But apparently there were some cuts made to their Budget...

I remember reading that they were no longer going to cover but I'm hoping it was a statement about overseas tours not domestic tests.

 

[GotSpin]

But skysports subscription doesnt seem to be working... Anyone want to help a fella out

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Good luck to both sides in what is going to be a difficult test for all given the circumstances. Hope we see some good hard cricket played in good spirit.

 

[hendrix]

I like the idea of Karn Sharma but I'd much prefer Umesh over Aaron or Ishant.

 

[Gnske]

It's all over already, India are done.

 

[Jono]

damn it

 

[morgieb]

Australia will score 600 here.

 

[Adders]

Always a big toss to win in Adelaide.

 

[ajdude]

was worried India would go funky and have Saha 6 Ashwin 7 Karn 8.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Australia will score 600 here.

Only thing that stops them is them not being mentally ready and collapsing because of it. 500 minimum I reckon.

330-4 today is my guess.

 

[Jono]

Karn Sharma is a huge huge selection.

 

[Contra]

Should have picked Ashwin over Rohit.
