*Official* 1st Test at the MA Chidambaram Stadium, Chennai, 05 - 09 Feb 2021

[Kirkut]

Gill and Sharma should pile on runs here.

Especially Sharma, can't get more tailor made pitch than this.

If there’s a sliver of swing, Anderson will Nick off Gilll for < a dozen. Doesn’t move his feet to cover off.

 

[Burgey]

Also, who was Anna Pavilion?

 

[GotSpin]

Solid crowd in

Chennai drains you so much according to comms. Burgey to comment

I always have this ominous feeling with Anderson, he has been our bogey bowler since quite a while.

Is no worries man. Any time pre Friday is good as gold so can take to Jonah’s

They look the goods. Recommend to all CWers. Get in.

 

[Shri]

wtf are you two on about

 

[Burgey]

Zip it, ****. Hingeh will tell you as and when he sees fit

what a partnership this is. Playing Aus into the WTC final aws

 

[Shri]

this is a disgrace of a pitch

no help for any type of bowler

we should expect to lose the d/n test so we need tracks where we can win two games ffs

this is terrible

 

[Burgey]

Solid crowd in

Test cricket is dying. No excuse for this

 

[Burgey]

This looks out to me

I genuinely don’t understand how any top or middle order batsman can get Yorked in test cricket absent bucket loads of sideways. It’s just a giftdot ball to block. Should never happen

 

[Shri]

****IN BUMRAH!!!

 

[91Jmay]

Good cherry that last over of the day. Reckon that's as good as Sibley can do, really good knock. Great day overall

I'll keep an eye on it but I'm sure itll be on Monday

 

[Shri]

run rate 3 an over for the day

if the pitch stays dead, that is good but not good enough

needed another 50 runs today imo

Yesh, Poms should be wrapt at that. Bat two sessions tomorrow and they’ll be very tough to beat. Root was great, but that’s a monster knock from Sibley. 286 balls day one at the sewer when you’ve not played in those conditions before is quality
