***Official*** India's Tour of Australia 2020/21 - General discussion

Yeah they get dislodged and get loose in the inner ear canals. Apparently it's a common problem following head injuries.

That is a bit concerning then.

I had a couple of weeks of vertigo after getting knocked on the head by someone who hit a six from the adjacent field 12 years ago. Was pretty ****ed, everytime I'd stand/sit up or turn my head abruptly my vision would literally start spinning.

D'Arcy Short replaces Warner in T20 squad.

Also Cummins now sitting out all remaining white ball games.

I really hope you guys play 0-100 Andrew Tye.

That's just T20.

Short could probably open even in the last ODI and that would mean a very like for like thing as well in terms of playing style, being a left hander and all that.

I think I mentioned yesterday Labu might be in consideration for opening. And lo behold, he puts his hand up to open the batting. Apparently, I read his mind.

Marnus Labuschagne puts hand up to open in David Warner's absence

He played an important hand in the second ODI to help build on Steven Smith's barnstorming hundred

Yeah Labu has opened a fair bit in domestic one dayers I believe. #3 would be his preferred spot but opening definitely suits him more than batting #4 in this format.

Giving him experience batting in the spot he's actually going to be in long-term is probably more important than picking the "best" team though.

I'd pick Short if I was allowed to (nfi how the covid rules work for someone just added to the squad).

Apparently he's already been training with the squad without being a formal member

 

[honestbharani]

As long as they are in the bubble, I am guessing they can play. India can play Ashwin and Pujara if they want the next game, I think. So even though squads are named, you can basically pick anyone from the larger squad.

 

[Gnske]

Pujara is the missing piece to the Indian ODI puzzle.

 

[aussie tragic]

Pujara is the missing piece to the Indian ODI puzzle.

I would of thought the missing piece was finding 'batsmen that can bowl' and having 'bowlers that can bat'

Everyone wants to open in ODIs haha, it's the prime position. Out of the Aussies I think Smith is probably the only one who wouldn't necessarily jump at the chance (even then he still might). From what I recall even Maxwell was always keen to open in white-ball cricket, despite how suited he seems to be for late overs hitting.

It would definitely suit Labu though, probably more than most.

 

[honestbharani]

Yeah, if he were not your best option for #4, I would let him open.

Served us fine through the noughties and helped us win two WCs. Not sure the winky was necessary there.

HB telling someone off for overuse of emojis

that's when you know you're in trouble

 

[gabbadan]

If warner is out, wouldn't mind seeing

1.Finch
2.Carey
3.Smith
4.Marnus
5.Green
6.Moiso
7.Maxwell

As the batting order.

They haven't got the guts to change the order to accommodate a newbie.
Like for like is all they know.
Wade for Warner bet your house!.

TBF I was only telling him it need not be in jest as the point was very real. I would NEVER tell anyone off for usage of emojis, over or under. ?

Isn't Short more like for like for Davey?

Short has only been added to the T20 squad

 

[Spikey]
