***Official*** Australia in India 2017

This was a complete accident, no?

They will have a better case for the ball boy hitting Ben Stokes.

 

[harsh.ag]

And harsh, I am pretty sure the word "Indian team will decide" does not appear in the article and I have read it both from the tweet and the link.

Yeah you're right. The team could just mean the curators' team. My bad. The article is written in the worst possible manner.

FMD this week is turning out to be crappy.

 

[Gob]

Yeah.. coz the Aussie reporter who reported it is of course the very definition of neutral. Just read the goddamn article. A whole bunch of whinges and whines... Conveniently forgetting similar incidents that happened in Australia of course.

Which one do you think he'll pick? The one that looks most conducive to spin so Aswin get his chance or the flattest looking one so Virat could at least get few him self?

As I said, beating Australia is the best for precisely this type of whining crap posts. Just cant take it, can you?

If he meant it he showed better shot selection and placement off the pitch than on it.

Nah I'm ok. I actually have no problem even if they offer Kohli 10 pitch menu to chose from its India's home advantage.

You know on second thought, hb's not wrong here at all. The article never actually mentions "indian team" or "kohli" when actually quoting the curator. In fact, both those telegraph articles read like something written by an angry child. Fmd look at some of those excerpts:

The second Test descended into a gloves-off street fight, and the ICC — who only two days ago pledged to stamp down on poor player behaviour — has waved the white flag and virtually allowed anarchy to potentially mar the rest of the series.Kohli was responsible for sparking world war three between two cricketing powerhouses through his relentless sledging, with umpires filthy at his disrespectful attitude both on the field and off.

As Virat Kohli left a tornado of destruction behind him in the Indian dressing room, fuming he had been given out lbw

The spirit of the game notion has been pronounced dead in the game many times before, but Kohli — a law unto himself — would appear to have killed it off once again with his behaviour some of the worst by an international captain since villainous Sri Lankan leader Arjuna Ranatunga.

INDIAN stars Ravi Ashwin and Cheteshwar Pujara have posted a sneering video of themselves attempting to belittle Australia’s two biggest names and make light of the sledging that marred the second Test.The provocative and boastful clip has been shot and run by the BCCI’s official website, an extraordinary continuation of the bitterness that’s erupted between the two super powers of cricket. In it Ashwin likens Steve Smith to a 10-year-old for his controversial DRS “brain fade”, while Pujara openly mocks David Warner for the fact he has now fallen to his spinning Indian teammate on nine occasions in Test cricket.

I mean, it reads like a parody. This is so ****ing over the top.Also, the video in question is positive tame, btw

he unleashed an astonishing outburst in the dressing rooms following his dismissal, smashing a Gatorade bottle off a table, where it then rebounded off a television and struck an Australian team official on the leg

Wouldn't be surprised if it was intentional TBH. #KohliSoSkilled

Yeah, absolutely. Worst written article I have read in ages.

The worst ones will get triggered by trivial **** and get banned before the next test. Win win.

Ah man I'm going to miss you in the match thread

Lol, that's worse than Zee News levels of journalism

I did a double take and had to confirm whether it actually wasn't satire when I read "villainous Sr Lankan leader Arjuna Ranatunga"

 

[Victor Ian]

What was an Australian official doing in the Indian dressing room? Is this regular?

It is all rather silly really. Why do people get all worked up by the news?

Probably a conservative newspaper. Would fit their narratives.

Nah this is highly entertaining. All I'm going to do is sit back and laugh. It's high comedy pretending to be a serious melodrama.

He was probably hired to teach semaphore to the Indian team. Kohli threw the bottle at him because he should have told him not to waste the review. #GoodGuyKohli

I think the only was to solve the DRS issue is to have a green and red light attached to every seat in the stadium, along with buttons to press to light each one up. When there's an appeal, everyone at the ground has 30 seconds to choose whether or not a team should review (obviously green = yes; red = no). When the results come in, the players on the field have another 10 seconds to decide whether to accept the majority decision, phone a friend watching at home, or have one of the options taken away in a 50/50.

BCCI will buy every seat in the ground
