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

[OverratedSanity]

Rohit at home: avg 288
Rohit overseas avg: 22

Has o be some sort of record right?

 

[OverratedSanity]

They can nick Rohit off pretty easily... he's rubbish outside off. Don't know why Starc is bowling short... won't bother him.

 

[Tangles]

Really?

I've seen him mouth off about as much as Warner.

Haven't noticed it that much. Must be in the field. Can't be when he's bowling his normal floaties. Like the aggression just dial it back a bit.

 

[anil1405]

Kohli is probably trying to give confidence to Rohit by sending him to bat at 3 but the issue is beyond confidence and down to technique and temperament.

I hope Kohli soon realises that swapping Rohit and Rahane in the batting order would be better for India.

 

[Cruxdude]

Rahul should just tell Starc to get back to him when he plays two tests in a row.

 

[Contra]

Why does everyone want Rahane @ 3?

He's the best person to have @ 5, can bat with the tail, has a counter attacking sort of nature and #5 is a the perfect position for him to play in various gears depending on the situation.

 

[Swingpanzee]

I'm watching just to hear another Sharma sledge.

 

[Antihippy]

Dude it's starc.

He can't bowl a bouncer without mouthing off.

 

[anil1405]

Too bad that Starc has been replaced. I was enjoying his short stuff and mouthing off instead of him trying to pitch it up and get a wicket.

You might get to watch him again if the second new ball is taken.

 

[Swingpanzee]

I wanna see Haze's sharp bouncer that cuts back in. He's done that quite a few times in the previous tests.

 

[anil1405]

You might get to watch him again if the second new ball is taken.

Don't tell me he is gonna go into his 'soft' mode for rest of the 68 overs.

 

[SteveNZ]

What happened to no send offs?

Form is temporary, class is permanent doesn't just hold true in a skills sense.

 

[nevermind]

That bloke better not pay for another beer the rest of the day

 

[Tangles]

That bloke better not pay for another beer the rest of the day

Takes a Sydneysider to lift the crowd catching form.

 

[Antihippy]

As revenge for making us retain Watson we're going to get rohit sharma retained by the Indians.

 

[Burgey]

Just for the record, as everyone knows there's a clip of some alternative commentary of this series on YouTube by an Australian comedian. I wasn't aware Burgeinho had seen it until today.

His side beat the ACT to get into the final of this carnival theyre playing in Orange and he took a skier at mid on for the eighth wicket. I asked him how he felt standing under it and he said "Dad, I'd have been more comfortable taking a **** in public".

Now, I should discipline him for that, but I just couldn't bring myself to do it.

 

[ajdude]

wonder what ch9 would do if rohit and rahul sharma were in the side.
