*Official* India Tour of Australia 2018/19

[the big bambino]

Yeah I think there was a test against Pakistan where we batted last and it was playing two heights. Lost convincingly. It cracked up once against England as well and we were rolled out by Caddick.

Lyon was also very undeserving of his six fer tbh

 

[Spark]

nah over the course of the match he deserved it imo. bowled well, took top order wickets.

 

[Top_Cat]

why tho? i've always considered haze the prime bowler when watching aus. sure starc might get his act together by the second new ball and do something useful, and cummins charges in and bangs it in but haze is more of a probe than a voyager satellite.

I'm not saying who's the better bowler. I'm saying who the skipper turns to. All indications are that it's Starc.

Should have had Pujara twice out of the twenty million bat-pads he had in the match too.

Megamind kept us in that game.

Lolwut? I thought he deserved more tbh

Did I just hear correctly on the radio that Varun Arun is India’s bowling coach?

Google tells me it's this guy:

Can see how you'd mishear that tbf.

So apparently Optus Stadium is such a hit that they won't even be opening the shaded upper deck for seating because ticket sales are so garbage.

Well done Perth, well done Cricket Australia.

From what I saw ticket sales weren't fantastic for the first Test either. Test cricket is really starting to struggle.

Who'd want to watch a team with its two best and most exciting batsmen missing and replaced with rubbish nobodies?

Who wouldn't want to see Marcus Harris at his best?

 

[TheJediBrah]

Whoever takes over CA from the idiots that handled tampergate should sue them for running the sport/business into the ground with their idiocy

Whoever spearheaded the Pay TV deal, and the 1 year bans, should really be punished. Steve Smith should sue them as well.

 

[the big bambino]

Don’t forget for Perth Bancroft is also marketable for parochial reasons.

At least no one can say that BANcroft didn't live up to his name.

Isn’t a lot of the decline down to it not being a D/N?
