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

[Gnske]

lol its how i got an opening to start a conversation with a chick that i dated for a few months

she kept saying it like how you'd pronounce the word ram when you talked about a goat

went on an epic rant about how putting together two syllables was out of her reach

had good rapport with her before that rant so it came across as funny rather than pissed lol

Did you have some hateful filth with her after your rant?

 

[Shri]

FFS guys, take the race heckling discourse to the other thread.

do your job ****

eventually

accidentally simped during a chat one evening when i was high and i kept thinking about it so it all went downhill from there quickly

like i was immature af and wanted to bury that moment so i did dickish things on purpose

 

[Pratters]

There is no place for racism in sport. I guess we all agree to that.

 

[sledger]

Lmao got you to post outside of Other.

You're in now, and by god it feels good.

It doesn't though does it

 

[Window]

Yeah I'm expecting this to be over before tea time tomorrow. India's lost the series here. The injuries have blown away their chances. I don't have much background on Ishant, Pandya, Rohit, Umesh and Jadeja's (previous) injuries. Could they have been managed better?

 

[TheJediBrah]

Faf - ab weren't facing Cummins then... Cummins is a kind of bowler who never gets demoralized, I thought Pujara would tire him in 1st innings but he's always positive.

From memory faf-AB were facing a 3 man attack with Pattinson injured

Cummins is the major difference. Hazlewood and Starc are very good but Cummins has a great attitude, always bowls with tail up.

You always make me feel so good. Like I'm not immaterial but have substantial depth. You make me feel deep.

 

[social]

Yeah. Would like to see him try and play with softer hands from here, though.

That’s my major concern but he’s got plenty of time

Pretty big difference indeed. I think that pace attack SA faced was Siddle/Hilfenhaus/Watson, and they weren't in their best form either. If India get through tomorrow it would be the greatest chase of all time.

Cummins could possibly be the best pace bowler I've ever seen. I've never seen him fall to pieces. He always seems to bowl to a plan specific to each batsman and he never bowls a bad ball. He doesn't even need the new ball or a lively pitch to be dangerous. If you could clone a pace bowler to play in adfinitum you'd pick him.

I saw a video of Dravid mocking the australian accent the other day, was that racist?

Well I'm not quite sure how I manage it. But anything for you.

Obviously it is, yes.

 

[stephen]

Obviously it is, yes.

Nah it's not racist if you're mocking the greatest thing in the world. It's like mocking Cummins for not bowling at 150kph.

Can't be racist against white people. If it were a minority with an Australian accent, then I'm not sure. We'll have to ask the experts. @AussieTragic

wouldn't expect anything less from proven ball tamperer Rahul Dravid though

 

[Spikey]

That's what happens when you keep tagging sledger.

I would like to know what the European court of human rights has to say on the topic of players being sledged by the crowd

i'm more interested in what his students would say if asked about it on an exam

 

[trundler]

I've never seen him fall to pieces
