***Official*** Australia in India 2017

Has Soks arm fallen off yet ?

Is it the Oz record for number of overs bowled in innings ?

Veivers bowled 75 I think

 

[morgieb]

If we can survive these 8 overs I'd like our chances of saving the Test. If not, GG.

 

[indiaholic]

Yesterday when Vijay started attacking, I just wanted them to bat sensibly till the end of the day today. So happy that things worked out like that despite multiple brainfarts.

 

[Contra]

4 overs each of Jaddu and Ashwin imo. Pacers can come on once the ball starts reversing.

Change the 7 to a 9 and you're spot on

 

[FaaipDeOiad]

No one would dare report this due to an onslaught of commentary from old ****s about how they were 8-ball overs back then, players today have it easy, etc.

It's actually balls bowled and not overs so that doesn't count in this case. The 1979 case bowled less overs but more balls because they were 8 ball overs.

**** me, Captain Dingus insists yet again on fielding at first slip.

Well I thought 95 was just too excessive

**** me, Captain Dingus insists yet again on fielding at first slip.

I think it's because he can't throw, but **** it, put Rahane there ffs. He can throw underarm from the covers.

**** me, Captain Dingus insists yet again on fielding at first slip.

Probably because Gavaskar has convinced him that he is actually good in that position.

 

[OverratedSanity]

Well that wasn't a good start

 

[Spark]

please don't play for the turn

please

 

[quincywagstaff]

Poor start from Indian spinners; both too short and too quick.

 

[CricAddict]

Renshaw looks like a really good bat. Predicting him to reach atleast the Langer/Slater levels in his career.

 

[Daemon]

Poor start from Indian spinners; both too short and too quick.

Yeah, signs of too much energy imo, especially Jadeja after his batting. They need to calm down.

 

[morgieb]

Don't play that sort of shots jesus

 

[FaaipDeOiad]

Guess the plan here is just to play normally and knock the runs off. Normally not something I'd support but for Warner it's probably the right call tbh. Can't see him deadbatting 200 balls so making a run a ball 50 probably helps the team more given runs still count to force a draw.

Don't think anyone else should do it though.

 

[Daemon]

oh boy imagine if he got out like that

It's definitely the right call for Warner, he's just looked really lost when he's tried to rein it in this series.

Not that it'll matter if he keeps PLAYING FOR THE TURN

 

[Contra]

Yeah that middle stump line is perfect from Ashwin, was too short and wide in the first over. Jadeja too needs to mix up his faster ones with slower ones.
