Kohlis presser: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6rGhcOD4GSY

So good

Has a bad game as a batsman and was a captain, wins, and then calls the opponents cheats ("your word, not mine")

Gotta love Virat

From the Sean Spicer "Your words!! Your words!" book of pressers.

Yeah I think that's why my immediate reaction is cynicism; seen too much of this sort of **** recently.

Had Kohli went on to used the C word in presser then it would certainly have dominated the headlines instead of the test match itself.

Had Kohli went on to used the C word in presser then it would certainly have dominated the headlines instead of the test match itself.

But he's ensured it will anyway, that's the thing. You can't so obviously imply a particular word, and then throw your hands up and pretend that isn't what you meant.

 

[harsh.ag]

There is absolutely no need to talk about that in the presser. Got the whole country abuzz now. Star Sports should be cutting him cheques for this

 

[Compton]

Kohli being about as gracious in victory as one would expect.

 

[quincywagstaff]

Kholi is like Trump in the Republican primaries baiting and goading his opponents at unprecedented levels. Could actually work in antagonising and distracting the Oz side. At the very least it's entertaining.

5 Hour round table discussions on Star Sport, ala Sydney fallout ...

Right, they should just ignore it.

Haha yeah - Someone lined all the cans up for us and held our hand while we kicked them over...how good are we!?

 

[morgieb]

Really the **** moment was that 4/7 collapse on Day 3. Burgey was spot on, we should have buried them then and there.

That whole hour was awful cricket. 150 lead was probably on if Australia batted sensibly, in which case India likely would've wilted. And then they wasted the new ball and gave the openers some confidence. It was that more than the Pujara/Rahane partnership that changed the game.

 

[bigmitch]

Meanwhile.... the "Mitch Hunt" will continue here in Aus....

I have been a fan for a long time, especially in the shorter form, but I look at his Test performances and just...why? How could selectors have persisted with him for this long...then I look at the board and see Junior. We're ****ed

 

[quincywagstaff]

That press conference sounds wild but in terms of crazy cricket press conferences nothing will top this: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Rgq3uUWXjF4

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Well this well end well. Light the fuse.....

 

[OverratedSanity]

Kohli WAC

Totally unnecessary presser but he's a fantastic and entertaining heel so I'm ok with it.

Football Manager-esque.

Match officials say only time they are aware of Australians looking up to dressing room for guidance was Smith incident today

Again, if Kohli isn't right on this...

 

[CricAddict]

Yes. That was unnecessary from Kohli. Will be interesting to hear what Smith said. Do any one have a video of that?

 

[WindieWeathers]

So Aussies...let's be honest, you want to give Shaun Marsh a massive slap across the crops right now don't you?

Also for the stats enthusiasts out there. How many of the Test nations have never failed to win a test match when chasing a score below 200? There's one team I know for sure but I'm not sure if there are many others tbh.
