Stark coming close to a back foot no-ball

From Cricinfo: Statsman Shiva J has this - scores at the fall of the sixth wicket in day/night Tests at the Adelaide Oval - 6/149, 6/176, 6/116, 6/109, 6/142

That's pretty telling.

Dont bowl short to philander, he played that shot like 100 times in his career

 

[SeamUp]

And the first ball faced against India in a Test and the first ball in a Test after isolation.

Quite something that.

Pity his son isn't as good as him because Jimmy was some opener.

Was huge in Graeme Smith's development in his younger years too.

 

[Compton]

South Africa probably considering a declaration soon anyway. 200 is probably flogging the dead horse against this Australia side.

 

[Gnske]

That's a bit of a savage decision by the third

 

[Spikey]

what

 

[Dan_M_Bali]

instant reveiw... usually not out

 

[SeamUp]

Ok, lets get to 200 boys and go from there....

Looks like this is the best we can hope for....

 

[stephen]

Has Starc ever taken a wicket bowling around the wicket? Always looks so much more dangerous coming over.

 

[StephenZA]

Tough decision but I think that is correct...

 

[Compton]

Stark coming close to a back foot no-ball

Can't remember the last time I saw a back foot no ball called.

 

[StephenZA]

Time for the Rabada 100...

 

[Blocky]

Surely they take the long handle to it now and try get as many runs as possible and get Aussie in under the lights?

 

[Top_Cat]

Look at that, only one frequency!

 

[Top_Cat]

Quantum physicist Ian Healy's hot-takes always valuable in these situations.

 

[Immenso]

Huh?

Btw, that RTS graphic is too narrow for layman viewers to make sense of.

 

[Compton]

Both sides with a pretty long tail with these sides... getting too used to watching England who generally bat to at least 9

 

[Dan_M_Bali]

Maybe did get a nick.


Off topic... but if there was a fist fight between Aus and SA I reckon Vernon could take on the entire Aussie squad alone. He looks like a mean sob

 

[SteveNZ]

Something about Australian captains that makes them feel they need to reaffirm umpiring decisions. Job's available when you're finished, Steven.
