4th Test at the Gabba, Brisbane, 15 - 19 Jan 2021

What is this wide angle **** that Natarajan is bowling? Takes out LBW, not sure what it achieves.

It's all about who can bowl the best wicket-taking long-hop anyway.

I know you've already got one of these today, but here's another reminder that Head > Wade.

Tbf, Wade throwing it away on 45 isn't that much of a reminder that Head>Wade

Eh, Head might have thrown it away on 71 instead.

But probably would have done exactly the same thing.

Nah my post was the reminder. The innings was just the pointer.

It's like a 20% greater contribution than the average Head innings

****ing prithvi shaw almost caused a drop

what even is the point of this ****

Wait why is he there in the first place ?

 

[Tom Flint]

Who dropped labushayne earlier and were they easy chances?

Sub field for Saini

 

[Prince EWS]

I think he's just confused how to captain this bowling attack. Saini is off, he doesn't want to overwork Siraj and Nattu as they're clearly the strike bowlers, which means Thakur putting in a long shift while there's some swing on offer.

Washington could bowl a bit more, but he's a kid who hasn't played FC in ages and will probably be required to bat time as well. Tricky situation.

Fair point, but Saini wasn't off the first time Thakur bowled way too long of a spell.

Give the people want they want IMO: more slow seamers from Rohit.

 

[Starfighter]

I love the title 'Wade poor dismissals this series'.

This is called a Marcus Harris

 

[Gnske]

Green looks confident off all those wallops.

Thanks to Siraj ruining his chance for a ton, the time has never been more ripe.

Nah don't let that change Indian fans mind, kick them all out of the Gabba the racist ****s

Come on, this is Queensland. We're not racist here*.

* except areas outside the CBD, and sometimes inside it.

 

[Gnske]

This fielding is so lethargic

 

[Window]

Ha a third time now! Is it just this ground? Longer boundaries than other grounds?

Edit: or yeah is it bad fielding.

Don't they have anyone else who can trundle in for a few? Would love more overs from Rohit tbh.

 

[Senile Sentry]

Nah I am certain now. Aus batsmen are already treating like nets session. I think in retrospect its a genius idea to let loose India s worst possible bowling lineup just to confuse and distract the opposition.

Marnus is dying a little bit inside with embarrassment every run he scores against these guys. Wade got enough of it (he is a proud man) and gave it up so did Smith.

Rahane at gully off Saini - was an easy chance for this level, and tbh I reckon I could have taken it.

Then I think Nattu got an edge that fell just short of Pujara at first slip.

 

[Prince EWS]

Rohit used to be a gun bowler for someone who rarely bowled, clearly not anymore though. The rest of them don't really bowl at all.

 

[NotMcKenzie]

Come on! I can't bloody stand it.
