*Official* India Tour of Australia 2018/19

[stephen]

Like Paine and Virat bantering a bit.

 

[Spark]

stay out of it umps

 

[stephen]

Bumrah looking flat here.

 

[stephen]

It can't be an Indian tour of Australia without a good old fashioned Indian teary.

 

[Burgey]

Seeing Kohli get in Paine's way there makes me wish Symonds was still playing.

Can't cop someone standing up to him, our Virat.

Typically....

I wish Smith was here even more so we could have full blown autism take place.

Ironically this series is far better to watch without Smith/ Warner since the Indians are actually a good chance now. I can't imagine Smith having missed out against this attack.

this is looking like a tame draw.
the two batters at the crease have done well.
handscombe will get dropped for the next game.

 

[Burgey]

Terrific shot

 

[stephen]

Exquisite cut shot that.

 

[Starfighter]

It's been a while between boundaries.

Is this supposed to be a haiku?

 

[stephen]

Paine finding something funny.

I think he's got a bit of mongrel in him at least.

 

[Tangles]

With the Aus bowlers and this pitch there’s probably enough runs already. Those 2 openers and the tail means 4 guys will have to do it all batting last.

Not the hero we want, but the one we need.

 

[Burgey]

Harsha Boghle currently going through every Indian player and telling us which languages they do and don't speak, and how it might cause communication problems.

The fact they've all got precisely the same facial hair would indicate they all communicate with each other just fine.

 

[stephen]

Honestly with the 2-7 off suit team he inherited I think he's done as good of a job as is possible. Truly extraordinary that 13 months ago he wasn't even keeping for Tasmania.

Scoreboard presure tells on batting
Proper spinner on this will fizz and pop

 

[stephen]

Paine looking really good.

 

[OverratedSanity]

This Vihari spell has been 1) too long and 2) dumb tactically. The wide line hasn't even succeeded in keeping the runs down.
