2nd Test at the MCG, Melbourne, 26 Dec - 30 Dec 2020

[Gnske]

Marnus "Combs for Hands" Labuschagne

 

[Neil Pickup]

Quick/risky singles are, at least in my mind, only meant to be taken to put pressure back on the opposition, don't get the point of it when India wherein complete control at the time.

I don’t think it would have crossed Jadeja’s mind on any score other than 49; Labuschagne knew it, Rahane wasn’t anticipating it as much as he ought to have been.

Marnus wasn’t anticipating that one, mind.

No surprise the cheating aussies are trying to give our 3 no. 11s a broken ****ing arm again

 

[Gnske]

Cheating *****

 

[Nintendo]

Seriously what the **** is wrong with our fielding, another drop.

 

[Gnske]

So the approach is to murder the Indian bowlers so we can all get out to Vihari long-hops in the 2nd innings?

Seriously what the **** is wrong with our fielding, another drop.

After India dropped 6 catches in the last game, Australia officially became the best fielding side in the world. This title is cursed.

If you’re not going to hold your catches then it’s knocking the stumps over or going all stick cricket on the batsmen.

Lyon's averaging 67.5 to Ashwin's 13.25. Burgey tasting.

 

[Arachnodouche]

Uncalled for, this short stuff to a bunny bat. Then someone gets hurt and u fake concern. Bullshit.

 

[mr_mister]

Has anyone noticed the amount of Sheffield shield reminiscing on comms has skyrocketed recently just to allow Brayshaw to remind viewers he played the game?

Yeah that always shits me too

 

[Nintendo]

Tbf lyon has created a chance that got dropped but I feel like pace from both ends would be better here.

Next ball he gets yadav.

 

[Gnske]

Spark to be pleased that just about the only ball that Lyon has bowled below 89kph grabs a wicket.

 

[Daemon]

That's what you get for trying to play Lyon with respect Umesh

 

[Daemon]

Hussey reckons "Bumrah is no mug with the bat"

 

[silentstriker]

It will be comedy gold if India squander their advantage twice in a row

I mean, it would only be par for the course for about 90% of the past 88 years of Test cricket.

Yeah the fake concern is nonsense but hey if you choose to get out there, fair deliveries are fair game.

 

[Spark]

restricting india to 326 honestly isn't a terrible effort at all, but nevertheless india well in front at this point

india really has no tail though. had smith taken that catch and/or been standing at first slip as he should have, then this would be a real arm-wrestle at this point.

 

[Gob]

Need to bat well now
