3rd Test at the SCG, Sydney, 7 Jan - 11 Jan 2021

Time will tell. Nagarkoti's got a long way to go, but then again Saini's got little to show that he's anything special.

thanks for that

 

[Daemon]

Never in doubt, Saini

 

[cnerd123]

Yeah this has always stood out in his Shield batting. He falls over sometimes due to that trigger movement, but he seems to be aware of it when he does it and consciously plays dangerous balls straight to mid on instead of trying to whip them.

and thank you for this too

WHERE THEM HATERS AT

z

 

[TheJediBrah]

He didn't even get close to that lol

 

[cnerd123]

Saini's been kinda crap on this tour and recently, but he's got skills. He can swing it, he's got pace, he's got a decent short ball. He's in a bad patch of form right now so we can't see all this, but it would be wrong to write him off as a prospect entirely on the evidence of this tour.

And he's also got a knack for taking random wickets, which is always a plus.

 

[Starfighter]

Smith gonna spend time giving me a heart attack till he gets out.

 

[vcs]

Looked like a dreadful shot that from Pucovski.

 

[Daemon]

Henry Nicholl-esque start to Pucovski's career with 62-3 on debut, but a promising one nonetheless

 

[Starfighter]

Lol Ponting it was a straight ball. Hope he doesn't become a Shane Watson.

 

[TheJediBrah]

Jhye Richardson would be good on this wicket

Lol Ponting it was a straight ball. Hope he doesn't become a Shane Watson.

Well he didn't review it did he

 

[cnerd123]

also nice symmetry for the debutant to get the other debutant out. hopefully it won't be the last time they play each other.

Get Ashwin on for Smith?

Never seen it

 

[GoodAreasShane]

Ah well, a fine innings from Pucovski. I admit I was sceptical, but I am definitely impressed the way he played, looked more and more comfortable the longer he was at the crease. While paitence is still required, the signs are good for Australia and especially for Will himself

 

[OverratedSanity]

Never seen it

Last ball of his first over moved nicely

 

[Prince EWS]

and thank you for this too

Haha he actually tried to do it to that ball too, just still missed it.

 

[cnerd123]

Never seen it

he's done it a bit in his earlier ODIs, seen some of it from Ranji highlights too. SG ball vs Kookaburra tho.

 

[Gnske]

There it is, the release shot.

Maybe this is the match for the autism king

 

[cnerd123]

Lots of runs coming just by simple pushes past mid-off today

 

[Daemon]

I’m happy to give Smith his average here and get him to leave. Just have a really bad feeling about what he’s going to do to us.
