In fact the discussion here helped counter the anger I felt towards Erasmus by reminding me both sides copped bad ones. Made me remember too just how hard is umpiring. However the errors emphasise the case for DRS imo.

Call the BCCI and inform them rather than commenting for nothing. Who is going to listen to you after all

Cricket happened Smali.

So for the people saying Starc has joined the squad, is Hazlewood in the squad too? I'll be gutted if Sid got dropped for Starc, but weirdly (or maybe not) I can accept Haze be given an opportunity ahead of the Vic.

Boards keep changing teams nowadays and I lose track of players you should have to pick a team on January 1 to play for whole year unless serious injury.

Starc, for the footmarks he creates :mellow:

Not serious btw. Think Hazlewood should be given a chance.

The Clarke injury article said that Starc has been added to the squad and didn't mention Hazlewood so I'd assume he's still there. My guess is the selectors are dropping Siddle for Hazlewood so Starc is in as backup for Harris or Johnson which given the short turn around between Tests isn't a bad idea.

Still don't want to see Starc anywhere near the Test team though.

Cheers for that. Yeah, you're probably right. It is weird to think how Siddle dominated in his only Shield game between UAE and this Adelaide Test (his 5 wicket haul were all batsman in the top 6) as he didn't even really look like getting a wicket in his 9 overs today.

Also, Mitch Marsh better show he's capable of taking a wicket at the Gabba, conditions should suit him a bit more as Test bowling figures of 0/150 doesn't look too flash.

The way Indian batsmen are struggling against spin makes me miss Sehwag even more. Sure he had problems against short ball but by far the best player of spin I have seen along with Lara.

Whatever it takes!!!
I like Kohli's attitude to captaincy... I really really wish this is not the next false dawn and that he indeed turns out to be India's Ponting...
