Worthwhile watching, this
But realistically the casual will either completely ignore it, or only watch the first minute or so, and then strut around like king **** in the deluded belief that he is somehow "vindicated".

What the hell are you talking about?Man I really hope the rain stays away from the Gabba. The forecast is looking so dire, which would be such an anticlimax to a series which feels like it's been bubbling toward a feisty finale.

Bright and sunny day 1, shower or two the rest of the match.

This is, no joke, one of the dumbest cricket statistics I have ever seen.
"x player only averages between 24 and 28 after having between two and four drinks and if his first spell was preceded by an offspinner on the third day. On Wednesdays."

He means the forecast of spectators that turn up. So dire in Brisbane

If I take this small, particular subset of a player's career they're amazing/ terrible.

I mean it looks at this stage like it will rub out at least 90 overs. Maybe dire wasn't the right word, but draw will be favoured unless it's more spicy than recent years.

Capacity has been reduced to 50% but the dickery of the government probably has meant ticket sales are still low.

only tailenders* when bowling on pitches with a compass bearing between 20 and 60 degrees with less than 20km/h winds, that is

Who said that? The bom forecast is the most accurate forecast available and they're literally saying "shower or two" on days 2, 3 and 4.

Is this an accurate summary
- trundler hates Starc just because
- as soon as Starc ****ed up he appeared and had a few jibes
- sensitive australians got fired up and called him out on it
- because trundlers hatred is emotional and not really backed up by stats, his arguments got taken apart
- trundler, now facing ridicule at the hands of Spark and a GAS that’s overly invested in this argument, decided to double down
- we’re now at the stage where he’s attempting to downplay things by throwing in a bit of humour
As ex-Gandhi, I request GAS to let it go and trundler to admit defeat. We’re 1-1 deep down in Australia after losing half the squad and y’all are spoiling the vibes.

I already resolved everything by saying "pull your head in". No further action required.

I’m starting to love the WTC even more now because it’s brought the NZers to a big 3 match thread <3

India is still breathing
Despite all the anvils falling on their head, India can still somehow win this series.

You mean bowl first ?
From memory, Rohit (or maybe somebody else) used the "wait until you come to India" line when things weren't going well for them on a previous tour and (rightly) got absolutely panned for it. Same thing here. Win the game in front of you ffs.India is still breathing
